Sabbath: Rest in Christ for Salvation. Tribulation = Sabbath and calls for rest. Elect keep the Sabbath because they come out of tribulation Ex 35:2 Six days shall work^04399 be done (appears to be NT age), but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day^06944, a sabbath^07676 of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death. Jer 48:10 Cursed be he that doeth the work^04399 of the LORD deceitfully, and cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood. 1Pe 2:12 Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation. 2Pe 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 1Jo 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. Ex 31:16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath^07676, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. Le 25:4 But in the seventh year shall be a sabbath^07676 of rest unto the land, a sabbath for the LORD: thou shalt neither sow thy field, nor prune thy vineyard. Jer 17:27 But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath^07676 day, and not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched. Mr 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: Mr 9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Isa 56:2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath^07676 from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. Nu 15:32 And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered^07197 sticks^06086 upon the sabbath^07676 day^03117. Nu 15:35 And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. 1Ki 17:10 So he (Elijah) arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering^07197 of sticks^06086: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. 1Ki 17:12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering^07197 two sticks^06086, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. 1Ki 17:14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth. 1Ki 17:15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. 1Ki 17:16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah. 2Ki 11:5 And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath^07676 shall even be keepers of the watch of the king’s house; (third part blows the trumpet) 2Ki 11:7 And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath^07676, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king. (two parts do not blow the trumpet) Zec 13:8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. Le 23:24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath^07676, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. Isa 58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath^07676, from doing thy pleasure on my holy^06944 day^03117; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: Isa 58:14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. Re 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord‘s day^2250, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, Zec 14:20 In that day^03117 shall there be upon the bells (placed upon the robes of the high priests) of the horses, HOLINESS^06944 UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD’S house shall be like the bowls before the altar. Re 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. Ne 10:31 And if the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath^07676 day^03117 to sell, that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy^06944 day^03117: and that we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt. Re 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Mt 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 2Ch 36:21 To fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths^07676: for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years. La 1:7 Jerusalem remembered in the days of her affliction and of her miseries all her pleasant things that she had in the days of old, when her people fell into the hand of the enemy, and none did help her: the adversaries saw her, and did mock at her sabbaths.
Sabbath: Shadow of the believers’ rest in Christ and Sunday a time for fellowship and sharing the Gospel Mt 28:1 In the end of the sabbath^4521, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week^4521 (sabbath), came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Lu 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath^4521 after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands. (appears to be All the old testament Sabbaths 1st vs. Tribulation and depart out 2nd) Col 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath^4521 days: Joh 9:16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day^4521. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them. Mt 12:5 Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath^4521 days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless? Nu 28:9 And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour for a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof: Nu 28:10 This is the burnt offering of every sabbath, beside the continual burnt offering, and his drink offering. Joh 7:23 If a man on the sabbath day^4521 receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? Mr 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath^4521 was made for man, and not man for the sabbath^4521: Mt 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Sabbath: Tribulation and Depart out Mt 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day^4521: Isa 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath^07676 to another^07676, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD. Mt 12:11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day^4521, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
Keeping the Sabbath after the Exodus of the Depart Out De 5:15 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath^07676 day.
Conclusion: The seventh day Sabbath was instituted as a day of rest in the Old Testament. It was pointing to salvation in Christ. That day was fulfilled after Christ was buried and resurrected and was no longer to be physically observed. Spiritually believers keep the Sabbath remembering that Christ is the Savior. After the resurrection, God allowed Sunday (New Sabbath) to be observed as a time of coming together for fellowship. The ultimate fulfillment of the Sabbath, however, is the Day of the Lord. That is the tribulation where God calls for the corporate body to rest in Christ rather than in its own works. The unsaved in the churches today are not keeping the Sabbath and therefore come under God’s judgment. By God’s mercy, the Elect keep the Sabbath as they come out of the tribulation to find salvation in Christ.
