Steve,

What day did God begin to create? [img]http://www.the-highway.com/w3timages/icons/evilgrin.gif" alt="evilgrin" title="evilgrin[/img] Can you be sure that it was on a "Monday"? All the Decalogue says is, "the seventh day". Again, where in the DECALOGUE, which is perpetual, being the Moral Law of God, does it specifically say "Saturday" is to be the "seventh day"? We have to look elsewhere, i.e., to the ceremonial law to find the specific day given to Israel.

Once again, I defer to Jonathan Edwards' three sermons on the "Perpetuity and Change of the Sabbath", B.B. Warfield's article on "The Foundations of the Sabbath in the Word of God" and Dr. Francis Nigel Lee's book, The Covenantal Sabbath. If those three sources are not convincing enough to establish that the Sabbath is perpetually to be observed for all ages until Christ comes and that at the coming of Christ it has been changed to Sunday, the first day of the week, then I have little confidence that anything "I" could say will be of any weight.
