Saturday is established by the Creator (Ex 12.9-11).

Everything created by Christ, and Saturday is installed.

IT IS INSTALLED when was THE CREATION (Gen 2.2-3).

 

REST of the Creator in the seventh day (Saturday) of rest during the day made her that Sabbath (as well as the day on which we are born is the day of our birth).

BLESSING of Saturday sets its veneration.

CONSECRATION of its intended use for the Holy Saturday and KEEP the commandments of the HOLY.

 

The fact that the Lord rested on that day, HAD ALREADY made it Saturday. When the work was completed, Saturday has become one, until her blessings. Therefore, every seventh day Sabbath of God on the day of creation (Ex 20.8-11).

The only reason Saturday's blessing and sanctification is that God rested on that day, so he blessed her and consecrated when it was all over.

 

What Saturday is set by God, not man, is it the title of (Saturday, My Sabbath, the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath) and bears his stamp and name.

 

The Saturday justified the creation of and belongs to the original ELEMENTARY TRUTHS that were the consequence of the creation.

It is the expression of the will of God, and therefore MORAL and eternal establishment !

Saturday is required for human as creation.

 

Commandment on Saturday is part of the law and was known to Sinai (Genesis 2.2-3).

 

She said that ALL SIX DAYS OF WEEK IS THE SAME , and the seventh - Saturday - is different from them, and on this day, people lie and comes before the face of God to worship.

 

None of the text in the Bible may not be contrary to the precepts of the Sabbath.

It had to sanctify and Jews and Gentiles (Isaiah 56.6). And now too.

 

Observance of the Sabbath is a symbol of faithfulness to God:

"Also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a SIGN between me and them, to know that I am the Lord that SANCTIFY them" (Ezekiel 20.12).

 

THIS IS A SIGN FOREVER !

Christ taught that God's law is immutable.

Therefore, the Sabbath commandment and unchangeable.

 

Christ taught that "Saturday for man" (Mark 2.27), i.e. for all people.

He kept the Sabbath in accordance with His upbringing. "And He came to Nazareth, where He was brought up, and, as usual, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read" (Luke 4.16).

 

He taught that you can do on Saturday works of charity or good for the sake of helping others:

"Which of you, having a sheep if it will fall into the pit on Saturday, he will take it and lift it out? How many people is better than a sheep? So you can in Saturday to do good" (Matt 12.11-12).

But this does not mean that Saturday could be the ordinary working day, or we must comply with the other day.

 

Dramatized this destruction of Jerusalem and of the second flight of Christians (70 AD), Jesus taught them to pray to escape no matter what happens on Saturday, knew that the Christian era it would continue. So after the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ to His disciples follow on Saturday and prayed about the day of the flight of 40 years (Matt 24.20).

Christ commanded to convey His teachings (including the Sabbath), to ALL PEOPLES (Matt 28,19-20).

 

Conclusion: there are 3 commands on Saturday:

- observe the commandment IV (not do hard work)

- be in communion with God

- It is possible and necessary to do good

The day after the crucifixion of Christ in the New Testament, was named SATURDAY: "After the Sabbath" (Mark 16.1), "On the first day of the week"  (Luke 24.1).

The Holy wives "on Saturday, were left alone by the COMMANDMENT" (Luke 23.56).

 

The first Christians (the Church in Antioch and not only) observe Saturday and on this day were going to "listen to the word of God" (Acts 13.44).

From the Cathedral in Jerusalem in 51 AD, learn that addressed Gentiles HAD REGULAR MEETINGS on Saturdays. "The law of Moses from ancient lineages in all cities is advocating it and is read in synagogues (houses of prayer) every Saturday" (Acts 15.21).

The Apostle Paul carried out the service in Philippi on Saturday: "On the day of the Sabbath we went outside the city to the River, where, as usual, was a HOUSE OF PRAYER, and the spoke to assembled there by women" (Acts 16.13).

Church in Thessaloniki also met on Saturday, Came in Thessaloniki... and Paul... three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures" (Acts 17.1-2).

The Church at Corinth is also observed Saturday: "After these things Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.  In every Saturday spoke to them in a synagogue and conviction gave the Jews and Greeks" (Acts 18.1-4).

 

Because the word of God calls the seventh day Sabbath after the crucifixion of Christ and the early Christians observe Saturday, considering it binding, then it is OBLIGATORY also for current Christians.
