THE “CHANGE” OF THE LAW Lesson 6 for May 12, 2018

The role of the Law in the Plan of Salvation. The Fourth Commandment. “He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.” (Daniel 7:25 NIV) The “little horn” in Daniel 7 was allowed to change the Law before men by removing, changing and dividing the commandments to his liking. After the 1,260 years of persecution, an interest on Bible study arose. After the 1844 disappointment, the Law of God was studied with detail and the Ten Commandments began to shine again among Christianity. The role of the Law in the Plan of Salvation. The Fourth Commandment. Sunday keeping. Sabbath keeping. Changing the day of rest.

THE ROLE OF THE LAW IN THE PLAN OF SALVATION “What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, ‘You shall not covet.’” (Romans 7:7) In Romans 7, Paul wrote about the Christian struggle with the Law. Sometimes we feel like sinning, but that clashes with our desire to keep the Law. What’s the problem? Is it law or sin? The role of the Law is to point at sin, but it cannot make us free from it (v. 7, 10, 24) Therefore, the Law is not the problem: “the commandment holy and just and good.” (v. 12) So how can we be free from sin? Jesus is the only solution (v. 25). “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)

SUNDAY KEEPING “Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.” (Acts 20:7) Christians usually gather on Sunday to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, because there are some Sunday gatherings mentioned in the New Testament. What was the purpose of those gatherings on Sunday? Jesus appeared a second time to strengthen Thomas’ faith John 20:19, 26 They gathered because Paul was leaving the next day Acts 20:7 That offering had to be prepared at home and not a Church gathering 1 Corinthians 16:2 There is no explicit command in the Bible to keep the Sunday as the day of rest or as a gathering day.

SABBATH KEEPING “As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people invited them to speak further about these things on the next Sabbath… On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.” (Acts 13:42, 44 NIV) Unlike the few mentions to Sunday gatherings; the New Testament is filled with mentions to the Sabbath. Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath (Mark 2:28) Jesus used to go into the synagogue on Sabbath (Luke 4:16) Paul used to go into the synagogue on Sabbath (Acts 13:14) Paul also gathered with the Jews on Sabbath when there was no synagogue at town (Acts 16:13) If the Gentiles asked Paul to join them, they also gathered on Sabbath (Acts 13:42-44) There’s no mention in the Bible to Paul or other apostles habitually gathering on another day of the week rather than Sabbath.

CHANGING THE DAY OF REST Why do most Christians observe Sunday? “He shall speak pompous words against the Most High, shall persecute the saints of the Most High, and shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints shall be given into his hand for a time and times and half a time.” (Daniel 7:25) Why do most Christians observe Sunday? The Roman emperors and the early Church authorities thought that changing the worship day would make the conversion of the Gentiles easier. In addition, there was an increasing hatred against Jews. That paved the way for the “little horn” in Daniel 7 to change the times (worship days) and the Law (the 2nd, 4th and 10th Commandments) The change was gradual. Once the day was changed for good, it was explained as a celebration of the resurrection.

“Had the Sabbath been universally kept, man’s thoughts and affections would have been led to the Creator as the object of reverence and worship, and there would never have been an idolater, an atheist, or an infidel. The keeping of the Sabbath is a sign of loyalty to the true God, ‘Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.’ It follows that the message which commands men to worship God and keep His commandments will especially call upon them to keep the fourth commandment.” E.G.W. (The Great Controversy, ch. 25, p. 437)

And another shall rise after them; he shall be different from the first ones, and shall subdue three kings and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months He shall speak words against the Most High Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven He shall persecute the saints of the Most High and shall intend to change times and law It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation then they shall be given into his hand for a time and times and half a time The beast (Rev. 13) is the little horn (Dn. 7)

Sabbath was changed to Sunday The Roman Catholic Church teaches a modified Law of God: The second commandment is missing (you shall not make any graven image) 1- You shall not have strange gods before me 2- You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain 3- Remember to keep holy the Lord’s Day 4- Honor your father and mother 5- You shall not kill 6- You shall not commit adultery 7- You shall not steal 8- You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor 9- You shall not covet your neighbor's wife 10-You shall not covet your neighbor's goods Sabbath was changed to Sunday The tenth commandment was divided in two
