The Sabbath

​Good! Morning!
 
Praise God! for this glorious day!  🐦  💐  🐌
For our reading of: the Desire of Ages;
this week we shall continue with the following chapter..
29. The Sabbath
📖 http://www.ellenwhite.info/books/ellen-g-white-book-desire-of-ages-da-29.htm  

God Bless you and yours this coming Sabbath day!
Happy reading!
 
My fave quote from the twenty-ninth chapter: The Sabbath..
  📚 And the Lord says, "If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on My holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord, honourable; . . . then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord." Isaiah 58:13, 14. To all who receive the Sabbath as a sign of Christ's creative and redeeming power, it will be a delight. Seeing Christ in it, they delight themselves in Him. The Sabbath points them to the works of creation as an evidence of His mighty power in redemption. While it calls to mind the lost peace of Eden, it tells of peace restored through the Saviour. And every object in nature repeats His invitation, "Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy-laden, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28. DA289.1

Yes❣
Who’s looking forward to Sabbath?  🐦

Indeed, experiencing rest in nature whilst pondering
on the Word of GOD - what a delightful privilege!
I have been enjoying it every day this week and can testify
that indeed, it is a wonderful gift!
A meaningful quote Lani, for all of us to take note of
and partake of the gift of Sabbath as the Creator ordained
for us to do.
Have a peaceful and joyful day!

A most delightful privilege for us all 🙂
And Praise God that we live in this beautiful place..
Where we can partake of His refreshing nature and creation everyday! 🐞 not just on Sabbath day.
His peace and creative beauty surrounds us here in Australia 🌳

Thank you for your reply, Liz 💕

“The Sabbath was not for Israel merely, but for the world. It had been made known to man in Eden, and, like the other precepts of the Decalogue, it is of imperishable obligation. Of that law of which the fourth commandment forms a part, Christ declares, "Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in nowise pass from the law." So long as the heavens and the earth endure, the Sabbath will continue as a sign of the Creator's power. And when Eden shall bloom on earth again, God's holy rest day will be honored by all beneath the sun. "From one Sabbath to another" the inhabitants of the glorified new earth shall go up "to worship before Me, saith the Lord." Matthew 5:18; Isaiah 66:23.

A beautiful quote also from this chapter 😌
I particularly like the following line in this quote: “And when Eden shall bloom on earth again, …”

What a glorious thought that we will be able to explore the original Eden 💓 #yay!
If anybody wants me, I will be in The Garden 😉

I just wonder, what will that worship be like??
God says that the people will “worship before Me!”
Will it be in any shape or form similar to the style of worship
in our churches on this planet now?
How much do we really
have uppermost in our minds that, when we go through the
church rituals, that we actually worship God?
An awesome thought for consideration in my humble opinion.
I think, as a result of this contemplation, my worshiping
is taking another level and an added awareness what it in fact means
and the responsibility that goes with it - awesome outcome!
Looking forward to more!!

    the Desire of Ages

    After the Bible, this book has been the most important book to getting close to Christ. You will absolutely get chills reading this book on the life of Christ, and you WILL have a deeper relationship with our Saviour!
    A curator for religious books at the Library of Congress says that this is the best portrayal of the life of Jesus he has ever come across.
    The Desire of Ages is recommended also by Pr Doug Batchelor for those who want to know more about Jesus and find salvation 💝
