ak4 said:Boy let me show you just a little of how blind i am--God gave the covenant of the seventh day in Genesis and then later restates it and in more detail when it was given to Moses---Is this two different covenants? Come now
As I said some covenant were confirmed or fulfil later, while others are new and separate covenant.
As to your question about Sabbath, he is restating the covenant (as you have stated), and cementing into law. I would agree with you that the covenant is the same one as the one in Genesis, but you must also considered other promises made to Noah, Abraham, Moses and David. Are all these promises/covenants different or the same.
There was covenant to Noah (Genesis 8:21-22) of not destroying mankind again. Read it. Does it have anything to do with Sabbath?
But God told Moses that he would provided them with laws (Torah), not just about the Sabbath.
Also in Exodus 3 (the burning bush incident), God told Moses that he would free Israelites from slavery. This was fulfilled later at Mount Horeb (Sinai) with the Ten Commandments. What does freeing the Israelites have to do with Sabbath? Nothing.
Again, are you blind and don't see it?
God promised Abraham land that his future descendants could call home - Canaan. God then refirmed this covenant to Isaac, Jacob, and later still with Moses. But this covenant wasn't fufilled until Joshua's time.
What does this covenant have to do with the seventh day in Genesis (Sabbath)? Absolutely nothing.
I don't remember which chapters or verses but I distinctly recall God promise David that his line would have kingship. Does this have anything to do with the Sabbath of Genesis? No.
Are you really that narrow-minded or blind to see any of that?
If you don't see, then please explain to me how this is all just one single covenant?
So far you offer no explanation to those I have mentioned. Refute them if you can.

Sabbath is rest right so Lets see if you can find rest in all these--Can Noah and his seed (he had 3 sons and they say that from his 3 sons the races of the world came--I dont totally believe this but lets go with this thought) REST because they know that God will not destroy the land with a flood?
But God told Moses that he would provided them with laws (Torah), not just about the Sabbath.
Heres REST again, BUT the REST of the Sabbath was already being commanded by God to keep before the Ten Commandments were given. Sooooooo.......
Also in Exodus 3 (the burning bush incident), God told Moses that he would free Israelites from slavery. This was fulfilled later at Mount Horeb (Sinai) with the Ten Commandments. What does freeing the Israelites have to do with Sabbath? Nothing.
Freedom from slavery. Sounds like rest to me. Or am i blind still?

Gee what could Jos 1:15 mean just for starters

Rest in the kingship of Jesus. Mt 11:28

I rephrase the question to you, but you dont have to answer i know the answer.

They are not good explanation, AK4.
Sabbath is only a fraction of the law that God gave to Moses, and only a tenth of the Ten Commandment, and the combined books make up the Torah. But you don't seem to see that. So it would be waste of my time to explain to you.
In any case, I will take your words for it that you believe what you say, because I've given up on trying to convince you that you points are sadly lacking in substances.

OMG Ben how long are you going to keep this poor servant suffering?
Can't you put him to rest and let him enjoy the peace....
Ya big cry baby.....*she lays in floor kicking and screaming* I do too, know what I say, I do too, know what I say....Waaaah....take it back Ben or I'll put a frog in your soup......Geez Ben if you want to play childish games..........One of the words of Jesus still on the cross was: "Father, fogive them for they don't know what they do."
I could very well say the same to you now, becuase indeed you don't know what you say.
The peace that "this poor Servant" is not allowed to enjoy, resides the peace that you are allowed to.
If you read Ezekiel 31:35-37, you will understand that there won't be Earth for the rest of Mankind to stay if "this poor Servant" is allowed to leave.
That's sad but "this poor Servant" must go on dying, so that you should go on living.

Perhaps he meant the 31st chapter plus the 35th through 37th?Just going out on a limb here, but SINCE WHEN DID THE 31ST CHAPTER OF EZEKIEL GO PAST THE 18TH VERSE!!

Actually I admitted that the Sabbath was one of the many covenants. I am not ignoring the Sabbath at all. I am just saying that there were more than one covenant. There's difference from I am saying to what you're saying.ak4 said:And you know the sad thing about it is i gave you proof but you deny it. This comment shows your ignorance. "only a fraction" SO WHAT. If its a fraction or the whole i showed you that the Sabbath was in all of the so called covenants that you and ben want to make up. ITS ONE COVENANT

But you're reply in post #124 is rather disappointing.
I gave you points where there were different covenants for different people and at different time. So what did you give me?
If you call these "explanations", then I am afraid I should have not asked.
A pathetic explanation for a totally unrelated events.ak4 said:See what you fail to understand it is the same way God describes the resurrection--He gives a detail here a detail there and detail here and a detail there in so many different verse and yet its still talking about one resurrection
A pathetic explanation for a totally unrelated events.
I gave many examples of different covenants, but you're saying that they are just ONE covenant.
And since you can't see the difference, and worse you give me pointless explanations, there's really no of continuing, is there?
Do you know why you attribute the requirements of Isaiah 53 to Jesus? Because of
Paul. If he had not come up with his Christology to hide his - Paul's - Messiahship,
you would never be able to think of Jesus when reading Isaiah 53.
