Have you ever considered this? [Spirituality & Religion]

To those who repeatedly try to convince me that the Sabbath of the fourth commandment no longer applies to those of us who reside in New Testament times, have you ever considered this? The Sabbath was established at the end of Creation week, before the entrance of sin, was made for all mankind, not just the Jews, and is repeatedly called in the Bible the Sabbath of the Lord thy God, not the Sabbath of the Jews. Also, Adam and Eve, our first parents, spent their entire first full day resting and communing with God on His Holy Sabbath Day.

I believe keeping the Sabbath Holy is important and I’m sure a lot of people do but what that’s means is anyone’s guess. Does the Bible give some idea what we should not do on the Sabbath?

@CrustyDDingus Watch the Super Bowl on Sunday and drink lotsa beer?
Something like that?
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie Or you could just sleep-in 🤷‍♂️

@CrustyDDingus But what about the Super Bowl and the beer?

Yes!!!!@SimplyTracie

@SimplyTracie I don't watch football myself, but that's up to you what you wanna do with it.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus I knew it. 😂
It’s up to each individual to interpret the word.

But what would you teach your children about attending a football game on the Sabbath Day? Like it’s all up to them? You wouldn’t counsel them?
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie I'd teach them not to idolize football for starters 😏
Chevy454 · 46-50, M
Well football is real anyway!!!🤣🤣🤣@SimplyTracie
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus That’s a good start. What about keeping the Sabbath and football? Any words of wisdom?
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@Chevy454 And God is fake? 😮
Chevy454 · 46-50, M
Yes. Thought that’s where you were going@SimplyTracie
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie If you find football restful then go ahead, but probably shouldn't go overboard. It's not like you're playing the game. 💁‍♂️
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus Should they even be playing football on the Sabbath Day? 🤨
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@Chevy454 I believe in God.
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie As long as they take a nap afterwards.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus Now you’re being silly while I’m trying to learn.
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie Look, just don't overdo it okay? Learn to take a break from the wind & grind. It's a day of day rest, not a day to procrastinate and pest. 🤷‍♂️
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus Okay. I just wanted to know what you think the Bible tells us to do.
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie Just don't be a modern day beer & football-Pharisee 👀
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus Okie. I’m definitely not that.
CrustyDDingus · 36-40, M
@SimplyTracie Only when it comes to pineapple on pizza 🙄 or maybe that's me.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CrustyDDingus No no. It’s definitely godly to have pineapple topping on your pizza. I’d suggest adding Spam instead of ham.

@CrustyDDingus Hahahah. Where’s the soup Nazi? [b][i]No pineapple pizza for you![/i][/b]
