IV. “REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY,TO KEEP IT HOLY” HOLY” 9 Six days shalt shalt thou labor, and do all thy work. 10 But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. (Exodus 20:820:8-11). When did the seventh day Sabbath commence? Who started it? Who made it a sacred day? Turn back the pages of time when it started for created man. Read what the Holy Scriptures reveal: 1 “THUS the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2 And on the seventh day God ended His Work which He had made, and HE RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORK WHICH HE HAD MADE. 3 And God blessed the seventh day, and SANCTIFIED IT: IT: because that in it He had rested from all His Work which God created and made, made “ (Book of Genesis 2:13).

Is tthe he Sabbath a blessing or a burden? Is the keeping of it a legalistic commandment? 17

13 “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, and shalt honour Him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: 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, “ (Book of the prophet Isaiah 58:1358:13-14). The above scriptures is seemingly shouting and screaming out loudly that Sabbath remembrance and keeping is A PREMIER KEY TO TRUE AND GREAT SUCCESS NOW IN THIS TIME, TIME, IN YOUR VERY LIFETIME. The LORD God Almighty is, Himself, giving out the His Divine Guarantee and Assurance that He cause the greatest blessings to

All the liars and mountebanks out there who tell you that the Sabbath and the keeping of it is old covenant legalism and old wineskin not compatible with new wine are nothing but nobodies, nobodies, and spiritual zeros to the Eternal Crea Creator GOD who created it for man, and not man for the Sabbath.

WHAT IS THE SIGN THAT YOU ARE ONE OF GOD’S CHOSEN PEOPLE? 13 “Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, ‘Verily, MY SABBATHS YE SHALL KEEP: For IT IS A SIGN BETWEEN ME AND YOU, throughout your generations, that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. 14 Ye shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is whosoever hosoever holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall be put to death: for w doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among His people. 15 Six days may work be done; but in the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. death. 16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. 17 IT IS A SIGN BETWEEN ME AND THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL FOR EVER: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day day He rested, and was refreshed,” (Book of Exodus 31:1331:13-17). *See Ezek 20:12, 20

Is the Holy Sabbath day a Feast Day of the LORD God? 1 “And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying, 2 ‘Speak unto the children children of Israel, and say unto them, CONCERNING THE FEASTS OF THE LORD, LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, EVEN THESE ARE MY FEASTS. 3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the Sabbath of rest, a holy convocation; ye shall shall do no work therein: it is the Sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings,” dwellings,” (Book of Leviticus 23:123:1-3).

What was in the LORD God’s mind when He created the Sabbath day on the seventh day of Creation by resting in it? Is the commandment to keep the Sabbath ONLY for the people of Israel? Or is it applicable for all the human race? 27 And He said unto them, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath,” (Gospel Book of Mark 2:27). redound d to Gdo.

EXPANDING EXPANDING THE LIMITS OF MORTALITY How can mortal flesh and blood, born of a woman, finite, and limited, have effective access to life higher than this?

Modern day human beings are now now unwittingly sidetracked by the accomplishments of science and technology. Many are led to adopt technological gadgets as equal, even better extensions of the human faculties than GodGod-given talents. Consequently. The many do not look to God anymore. The microchip, as the foremost, at this time. The supercomputers, and personal computers and processors, that comes with it, has come to replace the Divine Creator in their lives. Poring over the screens for many long hours has replaced prayer and spiritual meditation meditation and solitude. Listening to endless electronic sound bytes has set aside fervent prayers with all supplications. It may well be that human beings engrossed in all these are becoming emotionally personall cold, and leaning towards becoming like their persona computers and electronic gadgets: INHUMANE. INSENSATE. DEVOID OF HUMAN FEELING.

HOW TO LIVE

“HOW TO LIVE” LIVE” FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN 27 “And GOD created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them,” (Genesis 1:27). Thereafter, the Eternal Creator GOD blessed blessed them (BOTH), granted then the enabling ORIGINAL DIVINE MANDATE to become cooperating stewards of the planet earth. When God said, said, “I “I have given YOU” YOU”, He really meant BOTH male and female. They were to equally partake of the responsibility, singularly singularly, ularly, or jointly, to be stewards of the whole resources of the planet earth. They are not to be competitors. They are to work together, and complement each other’s strength. To reinforce each other, to overcome inherent weaknesses. weaknesses. In a marriage, the wife, the woman, is revealed as the weaker vessel, (1 Pet 3:7). THIS IS AN AXIOM.

WHERE DID MANKIND GO WRONG? When the human race were diverted to fix their goal onto other things than the original purpose for which they were created, it commenced commenced to produce many false goals to live for. That singular point of reference was smashed.

40

41 Or so they thought they had smashed. In the end, it is the only point of reference that remained to endure. Everything else is ephemeral. Fleeting. Fads. Mode Mode for the time. Obsession for the moment. Fashion for a season. The Holy Scriptures reveal that the woman is the weaker vessel. The male, the man, unwittingly, or wittingly, made a choice to relegate the women aside, and claim full sovereignity of the earth and all that therein is. And the woman a lowly subject and subordinate. It went worse over the centuries. This book is not enough to catalogue all the indignities down which man has pushed down women from her original status as rightly complementary complementary equal to the man. Thus, man unwittingly, created the missing link, the missing missing half of his life and being. He reveled in his imagined solitary crown. He usurped all authority to himself. In so doing, he diminished and hurt his own potential potential for total fulfillment that was foreordained for both of them, male and female, man and woman, to jointly share. Thus, the paradox of the proverbial glass, half empty, and half full.

MANKIND MUST TURN TO THE ONLY TRUE GUIDE AND AUTHORITY ON HOW HE MUST LIVE AND BE At this juncture in mankind’s long history, he is confronted with crises after crises. crises. The human race is simply unable to know how to cope with each, and all of them. Being mortal flesh and blood, , the human beings of this planet planet

go into a mode of denial. Better to forget, than to go to God for help. EarthEarth-bound, gravitygravity-drawn mortals., born of woman, are, without exception crisescrises-challenged from which real threat of extinction on a mass scale is being projected moment by by moment to humanity’s habitation, to mother Earth. The convergence of catastrophic weather disturbances bringing havoc and utter destruction is confounding leaders and citizens alike of affected back, ck, all the handiworks nations and inhabitants thereon. As Nature strikes ba of their thinking, planning, building, and projections for future this and future that are being dashed to hopeless pieces. These, they know not how to cope with, much less solve. Then disease and hunger stalk the ravaged land. land. What to do?

WE, NOW, ALL LIVE ON THE EDGE OF SUFFERING AND WOE Circa June 2008, massive earthquakes of 7.0 to 8.0 magnitude are happening one after the other. For the first time in living memory. Southern China continues to try to cope with one. 80,000 dead, tens of thousands perished and buried in the rubble of buildings that crashed in the thousands. Continuing rain bring landslides. Now floods in Guangdong and Zhenshen. Zhenshen. The threat of floods from the Yangtze River is terrifying hundreds of millions of Chinese. Deadly cyclones hit regions, as the Irrawady delta of Burma/Myanmar, and

42

43 150,000 people people are dead. Millions Millions homeless. Devastation so widespread. The Land of God – this was the original name of China – has suffered intermittently, throughout the 4,500 years of its existence. Nature has interrupted its civilization building. What is happening right now, as it rises to the top of the world economy, is a warning. WIL IT HEED THE WARNING AND SEEK THE HELP OF THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD OF THE CHINESE PEOPLES? In the United States of America, at just about the same month, the state of Iowa is nnder siege of floods. Thousands of beautiful homes under water. Worst than Hurricane Katrina, the reports indicate. Other states were devastated with deadly tornadoes. Twisters that came unexpectedly and disappeared just as quickly, leaving destruction and broken lives. Have the peoples of the United States of America, a nation of immigrants immigrants from all the nations of the whole earth, forgotten the Eternal Creator GOD? Was not this great country founded on Belief and Trust in GOD? ‘IN GOD WE TRUST” IS IMPRINTED ON THE FACE OF THE ONCE ALMIGHTY AMERICAN DOLLAR. Have they turned away from from Him by taking up heathen culture and ungodly ways? ARE NOT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF BIBLES PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY AND FROM THAT CHRISTIAN COUNTRY? Have they departed from knowing HOW TO LIVE BY GOD’S WORD, WILL, AND WAY? WHAT TO DO? Against natural natural calamities as above, human beings, beings, of every color and race, are rendered helpless., frozen, immobilized. And then, somehow, they turn to GOD who created all of them. Somehow, they might, and yet again, they may not.

44 Eight hundred passengers perished perished in the ferry that listed over and and sanked near the Sibuyan Island of the Philippines. It is reported that the owners of the ferry allowed the vessel to sail while the warning of a powerful typhoon Fengsheng was being broadcast broadcast in the last week of June June 2008. The grievous tragedy could have been prevented. Yet people are stubborn to heed warnings of imminent danger. This publication’s page is a memorial to those that died, and offers comfort and solace to the families and love ones that are left in the the land of the living. They turn to the GOD they refused to know and get help from.

IT IS A LESSON TO LEARN FROM So singularly, or jointly, or individually, man, and woman, must learn as an imperative, to come to a close relationship with their Eternal Eternal Creator GOD. For He is the one and only source and wellspring of help and direction that really and truly matter. matter.
