Then Christians should be inline with Muslims who have no day a rest. A few hours used towards prayer and off to work you go 24/7/365.
Interesting the way they pick and choose what commandments of HaShem are relevant, isn't it?...I mean, for Christians, then, adultery is ok, murder is ok, worshipping another god is ok, stealing is ok, lying about someone is ok...Because, after all, the Ten Commandments were given to the Jews...
1.So says the Lord, "Keep justice and practice righteousness, for My salvation is near to come, and My benevolence to be revealed."
2.Fortunate is the man who will do this and the person who will hold fast to it, he who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it and guards his hand from doing any evil.
3.Now let not the foreigner who joined the Lord, say, "The Lord will surely separate me from His people," and let not the eunuch say, "Behold, I am a dry tree."
4.For so says the Lord to the eunuchs who will keep My Sabbaths and will choose what I desire and hold fast to My covenant,
5."I will give them in My house and in My walls a place and a name, better than sons and daughters; an everlasting name I will give him, which will not be discontinued.
6.And the foreigners who join with the Lord to serve Him and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants, everyone who observes the Sabbath from profaning it and who holds fast to My covenant.
7.I will bring them to My holy mount, and I will cause them to rejoice in My house of prayer, their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon My altar, for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
8.So says the Lord God, Who gathers in the dispersed of Israel, I will yet gather others to him, together with his gathered ones.
9.All the beasts of the field, come to devour all the beasts in the forest.
10.His lookouts are all blind, they do not know, dumb dogs who cannot bark; they lie slumbering, loving to slumber.
11.And the dogs are of greedy disposition, they know not satiety; and they are shepherds who know not to understand; they all turned to their way, each one to his gain, every last one.
12."Come, I will take wine, and let us guzzle old wine, and tomorrow shall be like this, [but] greater [and] much more."
No...Israel did not refuse G-d...Where in the world do you get this from?...
Um, from the Bible.
Isa 53:3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not.
John 1:11 He came unto His own, and His own received Him not.
Psalm 118:22 The Stone that the builders rejected is become the cornerstone. (repeated several times in the NT)
But John goes on to say in verse 12: But to all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.
Personally, if I were a Jew, the parable of the wicked tenants would give me the willies. (Mat 21, Mark 12, Luke 20)
