Publisher's Synopsis
"Sabbath REST in a Restless Age - BOOK 1" travels step by step through the Scriptures revealing the path to complete rest. In order to overcome stress caused by modern confusion, rebellion and increasing lawlessness, this book exposes misguided attitudes to what some believers call the Lord's Day.When disorder and unbiblical traditions are dispelled, readers will find Sabbath delight in the loving presence of God. Book 1 warns readers of possible pitfalls, outlining the path to true worship. It biblically offers God's perfect antidote for modern ills and the believer's sense of abiding peace. Assisting readers to cultivate a quality relationship with God, it reveals what the Bible really teaches about God's Holy Day, the Sabbath of the Lord our God.This first book clarifies some misunderstood passages of scripture so that the discerning believer will discover that the Seventh Day is indeed the Lord's day as revealed in the scriptures. It differentiates between the Law of Moses and the Law of God. It encourages believers not to forget the Lord's Sabbath, but to rest on the Seventh Day, which is the day God claims as His own, special day. On God's holy day His people must rest, physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually in order to recharge their lives.Should Christians keep the Sabbath Day? Are there rhythms of seven hidden throughout nature? This investigation reveals convincing scientific facts that God has in fact established a systematic, scheduled day for complete rest.Lack of accurate knowledge with respect to any of God's commandment will begin to destroy the believer's life. This is also especially true with regard to the seventh day Sabbath. Why is this? Because time with God is the most crucial factor that supplies the committed believer, not only with knowledge of His Creator, but with the anointing of the presence of the Holy One of Israel through the power of the Holy Spirit. "Sabbath Rest in a Restless Age - BOOK 1" is only the introduction to the remaining 6 books that came out of a thirty year investigation. Therefore, Bible students are encouraged to complete the entire course with patience. In this controversial subject they should search every scripture in its historical and linguistic context and compare scripture with scripture until the truth becomes as clear as any object in the light of a bright shining sun.Although all questions about the Sabbath are not answered in this first book, yet the following questions are definitely addressed and the facts thoroughly researched: Does the Bible tell us which day of the week is really the Sabbath day? Did God create a cyclic seventh day rest for only Jews? Are there any commandments that God gave that because of tradition believers today have abandoned? Questions about instinct are also examined: Is the needs for rest, law and order, love and connection instincts in all created beings? Is there evidence throughout nature of natural cycles? And if so, are such cycles instincts? Is the need for worship an instinct in the human spirit?Committed Bible students are encouraged to listen and research every subject with an open mind and to compare and contrast the various perspectives as the early Berean believers did (Acts 17:11), by searching the scriptures EVERY DAY.
