Author: SHILOH 7TH DAY
Subject: BIBLE FACTS ABOUT THE SABBATH

This page is about the Seventh day Sabbath God's holy day
from creation. Before you review these Bible facts ask God
for guidance and directions to open your knowledge and give
understanding to study his words. God's laws are forever and
they are unchangeable. The scriptures tells us that satan has transformed himself into angel of light to deceive people.2 cor 11.4 He is the same serpent that went into the Garden of Eden and deceived Adam and Eve. satan is very much alive today in many of the doctrines, bringing confusion, he wants worship, he wants our praise and honour, and obedient that is due unto God only. Let's review the scripture and see that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today, and forever Hebrews 13:8. He tells us in Daniel 7:25 that "they will think to change times and laws, refering to the Antichrist, false prophets who satan blind folded there eyes to believe things his way. Many denominations believe that the sabbath is layed at the cross, God's laws that were written on stone with His own finger are forever. Heaven and earth will definitely pass but my words shall not pass away said the Lord. In conclusion He tells us that his word is truth, so if you really and truly believe that they are truth. Prove satan a liar and examine the scriptures and ask God for a revelation about the seventh day sabbath.

Hebrew 5:8 is clear that Christ is the Eternal Salvation for everyone who obey Him. Rev 22:14 calls us Blessed when we do His commandments.
