The Fourth Commandment isn’t long by accident. There’s a reason it takes more space than any of the others.

1. It’s the one people “forget.”

It literally starts with “Remember the Sabbath day…” (Exodus 20:8). And yet, it’s the one most of Christianity has either ignored or dismissed. It’s almost like God made it longer to make sure no one could miss what He meant.

2. It’s the only one with God’s seal built right into it.

His Name: The Lord your God.

His Authority: Creator.

His Jurisdiction: Heaven, earth, the sea, and everything in them.
That’s not filler. It’s His signature as the Lawgiver.

3. It’s the link between loving God and loving people.

The first three commandments deal with our relationship to God. The last six deal with our relationship to others. The Sabbath commandment sits right in the middle, connecting the two.

4. It leaves no room for excuses.

God names the day (the seventh day). He gives the reason (creation). He even lists exactly who it applies to (you, your family, servants, strangers, and even your animals).

Note: The length of the Sabbath commandment is part of the message. Also, the Sabbath is the only day He blessed, sanctified, and made holy. That’s not something He ever did for any other day, which says everything about how much it matters to Him.

The Sabbath is a sacred invitation to pause and reflect on our relationships with those around us. It calls us to embody God’s love by letting go of grudges and embracing a spirit of forgiveness.

In these blessed hours, we are given a divine opportunity to reconcile, heal, and extend grace to one another.

How will we choose to love our family, friends and neighbours this ?

The blessing of God is not put upon a man because he is good, but the blessing of God is put upon him to make him good. It is to turn him away from his iniquities. {CAS 16.1}

We have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us.
The God who has guided us this far will continue to lead us.
This Sabbath, trust Him who holds the future because His plans are for our good.
Shabbat Shalom!

It's 180 years of the Great Disappointment
(TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22ND, 1844 - TUESDAY, OCTOBER, 22ND, 2024)

October 22, 1844, is a significant date in Adventist history, known as the Great Disappointment.

Background:

The Great Disappointment occurred when Jesus did not return on October 22, 1844, as predicted by William Miller, a Baptist preacher. Miller's interpretation of Daniel 8:14 led him to believe that Jesus would return on this date to cleanse the sanctuary.

The Millerite Movement:

Miller's teachings sparked the Millerite Movement, which gained widespread attention and attracted thousands of followers, including many who would later become Seventh-day Adventists.

The Disappointment:

When Jesus did not return on October 22, 1844, many Millerites were devastated, feeling disappointed and confused. This event became known as the Great Disappointment.

Aftermath and Reevaluation:

In the aftermath, some Millerites abandoned their faith, while others reevaluated their beliefs. A small group, including Ellen G. White, James White, and Joseph Bates, continued to study Scripture and pray.

The Birth of Seventh-day Adventism:

This group eventually formed the Seventh-day Adventist Church, emphasizing:

1. Sabbath observance (Friday evening to Saturday evening)
2. The importance of the sanctuary and its cleansing
3. The imminent return of Jesus
4. The authority of Scripture

Lessons from the Great Disappointment:

1. The importance of biblical interpretation and understanding
2. The danger of setting specific dates for Jesus' return
3. The need for faith and perseverance in times of uncertainty
4. The value of community and fellowship in times of disappointment

Commemorating the Great Disappointment:

Today, Seventh-day Adventists reflect on the lessons learned from this event and reaffirm their commitment to sharing the gospel and preparing for Jesus' return.
