We all know that on the 7th day, God rested from his labours and blessed the day. We also know that we should observe the Sabbath and keep it holy, resting from our labours. But here are a couple of questions I'd like to ask.
What activities are deemed as "acceptable" on the Sabbath? What are not? Does it matter what day we use as the Sabbath? -------------------- "Beauty kindles imagination, hope and encouragement. If beauty ceased to exist we would, in a very real sense, cease to exist - for we would no longer be who we are." ~ Professor Nettleton, The Song of Albion, The Paradise War
"The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned." Isaiah 9:2  |

And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses.
Numbers 15 I think. That shows that even just "gathering" or "picking up sticks" on the Sabbath is worthy of death! Wow. -------------------- The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want.
