Jesus Is the Lord of the Seventh Day Sabbath – Understanding the True Path to Salvation

Introduction

Who is Jesus, and what does it mean that He is the Lord of the Seventh Day Sabbath, and not the Lord of the Sixth Day Sabbath or Eighth Day Sabbath?!!!  

Many people believe that following religious laws and traditions is enough for salvation, but the Bible teaches otherwise. Jesus Himself declared that He came not to abolish the law, but to fulfill it. His life, ministry, and ultimate sacrifice demonstrate that salvation is found through faith in Him, not merely by following the law.

Let’s explore why Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath, the role of God’s law, and how grace through Christ leads to true salvation.

What Is the Will of God?

Jesus lived in complete obedience to His Father. His mission on Earth was to fulfill God’s purpose, not His own desires. Similarly, our purpose is not to follow our own will, but to live according to the will of our Creator.

So, what is God's will? It is revealed in His Word:

“This is my beloved Son, my Chosen One; listen to Him!”
(Luke 9:35)

God’s will is clear: we are to listen to Jesus. He is our guide to truth, righteousness, and salvation.

Jesus: The Lord of the Sabbath

Jesus explicitly stated that He is the Lord of the Sabbath in:

  • Matthew 12:8
  • Mark 2:28
  • Luke 6:5

The religious leaders of His time accused Him of breaking the Sabbath law, but how could He, the very author of the law, be guilty of violating it? Jesus didn’t come to destroy the law—He came to fulfill it.

Many people today still focus on legalistic traditions, thinking they can earn salvation by following religious rules. However, just as circumcision was a symbol rather than a requirement for salvation, observing the law alone does not bring eternal life.

Salvation Comes Through Jesus, Not the Law

Jesus introduced a new covenant—one based on grace, not legalism. His sacrifice replaced the rigid requirements of the law, offering salvation through faith in Him.

“For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.”
(John 1:17)

Without Jesus, the law only serves to reveal sin. It highlights humanity’s inability to achieve righteousness on its own. This is why salvation is by grace through faith in Christ, not by following religious rituals.

The Law and Grace: Why Did Jesus Come?

The primary purpose of the law is to identify sin:

“For by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
(Romans 3:20)

Sin exists because the law exists. If there were no law, there would be no transgression. However, the law itself cannot save anyone.

If obeying the law could bring salvation, then Jesus’ death on the cross would have been unnecessary. Instead, His sacrifice was essential—it fulfilled the law and provided the only path to salvation.

  • The law shows us our sin
  • Grace through Jesus offers us salvation

Through His perfect life, crucifixion, and resurrection, Jesus became the righteous Lamb of God—the only one qualified to take away the sins of the world.

“For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.”
(Romans 10:4)

Jesus: The Fulfillment of the Law and Prophets

Jesus didn’t abolish the Old Testament laws and prophecies; rather, He completed them through His life, ministry, and ultimate sacrifice.

Everything written in the Old Testament—from Moses’ laws to the prophecies of Isaiah, Daniel, and others—pointed to Jesus as the Messiah. His:

  1. Birth – Fulfilled prophecy (Isaiah 7:14)
  2. Ministry – Demonstrated divine authority (Luke 4:18-19)
  3. Crucifixion – Paid the price for sin (Isaiah 53:5)
  4. Resurrection – Defeated death (Psalm 16:10)
  5. Ascension – Seated at God’s right hand (Daniel 7:13-14)

“I am the Gate; no one comes to the Father except through me.”
(John 14:6)

Religious Blindness: Why Many Reject Jesus

During Jesus’ time, religious leaders were blinded by their traditions. They refused to recognize the Messiah written about in their own Scriptures. Instead of embracing the truth, they rejected, ridiculed, and ultimately crucified Him.

“They look, but they do not see. They hear, but they do not understand.”

Even today, many people hold onto religious traditions rather than embracing Jesus. They focus on rituals, laws, and religious systems, but miss the heart of God’s message.

Jesus did not come to establish a religion; He came to restore a broken relationship between God and mankind.

  • The religious leaders cared about their status and power
  • Jesus cared about the poor, sick, and oppressed

The Priority: The Sabbath or the Lord of the Sabbath?

Religious laws exist for our benefit, and we should respect them. However, our priority must always be Jesus—the Lord of the Sabbath.

The Sabbath was made for man’s benefit, not as a rigid rule for salvation. Jesus made it clear that He has authority over the Sabbath because He is the one who created it.

He purchased us with His own blood, redeeming us from sin and Satan.

This doesn’t mean we should disregard God’s commandments. Rather, it means that following religious laws alone will not save us. Only faith in Jesus Christ brings true salvation.

  • Obedience to God is important
  • But faith in Jesus is essential

Final Reminder: Faithfulness to Jesus Leads to Salvation

The book of Revelation highlights the importance of remaining faithful to Jesus:

“This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of God who keep His commands and remain faithful to Jesus.”
(Revelation 14:12)

“Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”
(Revelation 14:13)

True salvation is not found in legalism, religious traditions, or human efforts. It is found only in faith, love, and obedience to Jesus Christ—the Lord of the Sabbath.

Key Takeaways

  1. Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath—He has authority over all religious laws.
  2. The law identifies sin, but grace through Jesus brings salvation.
  3. Following religious laws alone will not save you—faith in Christ is essential.
  4. Jesus fulfilled the law and the prophecies through His birth, ministry, death, and resurrection.
  5. True salvation comes from trusting in Jesus, not in religious rituals or traditions.


Are You Focused on the Law or the Lord?

Jesus is calling us to focus not on religious rules but on Him. Are you trusting in traditions or in the Savior who gave His life for you?

Once you commit to Christ, your entire being transforms. Your focus shifts from worldly pursuits to a renewed spiritual identity. You were created for a purpose beyond temporary achievements that hold no eternal value. Breaking free from a fallen life begins with studying, meditating on, and practicing God’s Word. Guidance from those who have truly been born again can help. Jesus paid the ultimate price to lift us from our fallen state—but are we making an effort to walk in His way? Many struggle to break free from worldly conditioning and embrace a fulfilling spiritual life. My mission is to help others see the vast difference between a worldly life and a spiritual life—to inspire a shift in focus from the temporary to the eternal. A single change in perspective can transform our lives and souls, leading us from the miseries of hell to the eternal joys of heaven.

JESUS' RESURRECTION VS. EASTER: UNCOVERING THE TRUTH

By
Image
Jesus Was Not Resurrected on Sunday! The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of Christian faith, yet much of what the world believes about it has been distorted. Many people have been taught that Jesus was resurrected on Sunday morning, but if we carefully analyze the Scriptures and the Jewish calendar, we uncover a different reality. According to the Jewish reckoning of time (Genesis 1:5), a day begins at sunset and ends at the next sunset. Jesus prophesied that He would be in the grave for "three days and three nights" (Matthew 12:40), which means His resurrection could not have taken place on a Sunday morning. Instead, Jesus was resurrected on Saturday before sunset , precisely fulfilling the 72-hour prophecy He Himself declared. Exposing the False Narrative of Easter Sunday Many Christian traditions today are not rooted in biblical truth but rather in pagan customs that infiltrated Christianity over time. "Easter Sunday" is one of the biggest deceptio...

THE DECEPTION OF EATING CHRIST’S FLESH: A BABYLONIAN PRACTICE IN CHRISTIANITY

“The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The Words I have spoken to you are Spirit, and they are Life.” The Deception of Eating Christ’s Flesh: A Babylonian Practice in Christianity “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory of the One and Only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.” (John 1:1, 14) The Bible makes it absolutely clear: Jesus Christ is the eternal Word of God, who became flesh and lived among us. He is God Himself, who came in human form to give mankind the opportunity to be saved from Satan and eternal damnation. Yet Satan—the father of lies (John 8:44)—has introduced one of his greatest deceptions into Christianity: the ritual of “eating Christ’s flesh and drinking His blood” through bread and wine. This ritual, inherited from Babylonian pagan practices, has blinded billions and turned their eyes away from the true spiritual food— th...

EXPOSING THE FALSE CATHOLIC TEACHINGS ABOUT MOTHER MARY: WHAT THE BIBLE REALLY SAYS

By

  Introduction:  The Truth About Mary from a Biblical Perspective Mother Mary - A Mortal, who needs a Savior Mary, the mother of Jesus, was undeniably a blessed and faithful woman chosen by God for a divine purpose. However, many Catholic teachings have elevated her to a position the Bible never endorses—introducing unbiblical doctrines that distort her role and contradict Scripture. In this blog post, we’ll separate biblical truth from Catholic tradition and explore what the Word of God really says about Mary. The Spirit-Filled Encounter: Mary Visits Elizabeth Scripture Reference: Luke 1:39–45 After receiving the angel Gabriel's message, Mary visited her cousin Elizabeth, who was pregnant with John the Baptist. Upon Mary’s greeting, John leaped in Elizabeth's womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, declaring: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!” – Luke 1:42 Even before Jesus was born, His divine identity was affirmed.

If You Love Me, Keep My Commandments Keep Your Lamps Burning for Christ Until His Glorious Return! The Kingdom of Heaven will be like the ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. (Matthew 25:1) In this uncertain world, where every day brings new challenges, Christians are called to remain vigilant and faithful in anticipation of Christ's glorious return . The parable of the ten virgins, as found in Matthew 25:1-13, is a timeless reminder of the importance of spiritual preparedness. We are called not just to wait for Christ’s return, but to actively "keep our lamps burning"—to stay faithful, watchful, and prepared until that glorious moment. The Parable of the Ten Virgins (Matthew 25:1-13) In the Parable of the Ten Virgins, we find a story of two types of believers: the wise and the foolish. Let’s take a closer look at this powerful story: 1.      "At that time, the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps a...

Jesus Christ: The Fulfilment of King David’s Prophecy Jesus is  seated at the right hand of God ( heavenly throne) King David Prophesied the Messiah's Divine Identity "The Lord (God the Father) said to my Lord (God the Son), 'Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.'" — Psalm 110:1 (Matthew 22:41-46) — Whose Son is the Messiah? 41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?” “The son of David,” they replied. 43 He said to them, “How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him ‘Lord’? For he says, 44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.”’ 45 If then David calls him ‘Lord,’ how can he be his son?” 46 No one could say a word in reply, and from that day on no one dared to ask him any more questions.

GOD FIRST: THE BREATH OF LIFE AND THE FOUNDATION OF FAITH

"God First: The Source of Life, Faith, and Eternal Purpose" God First: The Breath of Life and the Foundation of Faith Understanding "God First" – The Essence of Our Existence Putting  God first  is not just a phrase; it is the very foundation of life itself. Scripture tells us,  "In Him we live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28).  Every breath we take is a divine gift, and the moment it ceases, we return to dust (Genesis 3:19). Our earthly identity fades, and we are no longer recognized by our name, but simply as a "dead body." This reality should awaken us to the truth: our lives are sustained by God, and without Him, we are nothing. Why the World Misunderstands "God First" Despite the first and greatest commandment—**"You shall have no other gods before Me" (Exodus 20:3)—**many treat it as an afterthought. The world often prioritizes wealth, power, and self-interest over God, making Him a last resort instead of the...
