The Fourth Commandment

Exodus 20:8-11—
8 Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it Holy.
9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work,
10 But the Seventh Day is the Sabbath of Yahweh your Heavenly Father. In it you shall not do your work: you, nor your wife, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor the stranger who dwells within your gates.
11 For in six days Yahweh made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them; and rested the seventh day. Therefore, Yahweh blessed the Sabbath Day, and hallowed it; Yahweh made the Sabbath Day Holy.

The subject of the Sabbath is too much to cover in this chapter, but please let me present to you the following Scriptural facts.

Sin is the breaking of Yahweh's Laws.

I Yahchanan 3:4—
Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.

I Yahchanan 2:4—
He who says: I know Him, but does not keep His Laws, is a liar, and the Truth is not in him.

Unless you repent of sin and convert to keeping Yahweh’s Laws of Righteousness there is no hope of eternal life for you or your religious leader.

Galatians 6:6-8—
6 Let him who is trained in the Law of Yahweh share all Righteous things with him who is learning, thereby contributing to his spiritual support.
7 Do not be deceived, Yahweh is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap.
8 For he who sows to his flesh, from the flesh will reap corruption; but he who sows to Yahweh, from Yahweh will reap everlasting life.

The prophesied destruction to come will be upon the preachers as well as those who follow them.

Isayah 24:1-6—
1 Before Yahweh's very eyes, the earth is made empty and it is made waste, the face of it is perverted and its inhabitants scattered abroad;
2 And it will be: as with the people, so with the priests; as with the servant, so with his owner; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with him who takes usury, so with him who gives usury to him:
3 The land will be utterly emptied and utterly plundered, for it has come to pass that this Judgment has been pronounced.
4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world mourns and fades away, and the haughty people of the earth languish.
5 The earth also is defiled because of the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant.
6 Because of this, the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell therein are desolate; therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

Isayah 66:17—
They who sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens, following after the priests in the midst of those who eat swine's flesh, that which is offered to gods (elohim) and the rodent—will be consumed together: says Yahweh.

Mattithyah 7:15—
Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Please notice what the Savior says to you. He is saying do not believe religions that do not keep the Laws of Yahweh. Notice what else He says.

Mattithyah 7:16-17, 23—
16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?
17 Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity.
23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity; you who break the Law of Yahweh!

According to the Greek dictionary in Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance, the word iniquity is word #458 from word #459, and means transgression of the Law, not subject to the Law.

Who is Yahshua speaking of who teaches people to practice iniquity, which is breaking Yahweh's Laws? He shows plainly it is the religions, preachers and priests. Notice, what will occur to those who refuse to keep Yahweh’s Laws.

Mattithyah 7:18-19—
18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness.
19 Every tree which does not bring forth Righteous fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

Notice how the religious leaders who practice iniquity (sin) plead in the end.

Mattithyah 7:21-23—
21 Not everyone who says to Me; Teacher! Teacher! will enter into the Kingdom of Yahweh, but only he who does the Will of My Father Who is in heaven.
22 Many will say to Me in that day; Teacher! Teacher! Have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and in Your Name performed many wonderful works?
23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity; you who break the Law of Yahweh!

Will the Savior change His mind and allow them (or you) to have eternal life? The Savior said you can’t have eternal life unless you live by every Law of Yahweh.

Mattithyah 4:4—
But He answered, and said; It is written: Man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yahweh.

Compare the Apostle Yaaqob’s Inspired Writings to the Words of the Savior.

Yaaqob 2:10-12—
10 For whoever keeps the whole Law, and yet offends in one point, he is guilty of all.
11 For He Who said: Do not commit adultery, also said: Do not murder. Now if you do not commit adultery, yet you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the Laws.
12 So speak, and so do, as those who are being judged by the Laws of Liberty.

Now read the following:

Isayah 8:20—
To the Laws and to the Prophecy: if they speak not according to these Words, it is because there is no light in them.

Galatians 6:6-8—
6 Let him who is trained in the Law of Yahweh share all Righteous things with him who is learning, thereby contributing to his spiritual support.
7 Do not be deceived, Yahweh is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap.
8 For he who sows to his flesh, from the flesh will reap corruption; but he who sows to Yahweh, from Yahweh will reap Everlasting Life.

False preachers teach that the so-called New Testament does away with the Laws of Yahweh. This is a lie! There is no Scripture that backs them in such lies. Because of their teachings, Isayah 24:1-6 will be fulfilled before your eyes in this time period.

Notice what the Apostle Shaul said.

Galatians 5:18—
For if you are led by Spirit, are you not under the Laws?

The unrighteous preachers who are leading the world into sickness and disease—there are over 125 STDs in the world at this time—don't look at the results of their own teachings. In the minds of the lying preachers this verse means no one needs to abstain from fornication, adultery, uncleanness, and licentiousness (having license to sin). All one needs to do is read the rest of the chapter to see that the Apostle is not teaching to do away with Yahweh’s Laws.

Galatians 5:19-21—
19 For the works of the flesh are obvious, which are these: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness,
20 Godworship (the worship of elohim), sorcery, hatred, contentions, evil jealousies, rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions; disagreements with quarreling, heresies; sects or factions of division,
21 Envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I warn you beforehand, just as I did in times past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of Yahweh.

I Yahchanan 3:7-8—
7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.
8 He who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.

So what was the Apostle saying? He was simply saying this: If you convert to keeping Yahweh's Laws and repent of your past sins, you’re no longer under the Law of the death penalty for sin. Of course, your sins are forgiven. Continue reading in Galatians Chapter 5.

Galatians 5:22-23—
22 But the Fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, longsuffering; patience, kindness, Righteousness, the Faith;
23 Meekness; gentleness, humility, temperance; self-control^__such things are not against any Laws.

He is saying what every Apostle and Prophet taught. If you walk in the Spirit of the Law, you will live by the Law, which is not against any Law. If you do not live by the Laws of Yahweh, you will fulfill your evil lust as the whole world is doing, which is called sin and the penalty is death.

Yechetzqyah 18:20-24—
20 The soul that sins, it will die. The son will not bear the iniquity of the father, nor will the father bear the iniquity of the son. The Righteousness of the Righteous will be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked will be upon himself.
21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he has committed, and keep all My Statutes, and do that which is Lawful and right, then he will surely live; he will not die.
22 And his transgressions that he has committed will not be mentioned against him; in his Righteousness that he has done, he will live.
23 Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? says Father Yahweh: No, but rather that he would turn back from his wicked ways, and live.
24 But when the Righteous turns away from his Righteousness and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does—should he live? All his Righteousness that he has done will not be mentioned in his behalf. In his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he will die.

Hebrews 10:16, 24-27—
16 This is the Covenant that I will renew with them after those days, says Yahweh: I will put My Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them;
24 And let us consider one another, how we may urge one another on toward love and Righteous Works;
25 Not forsaking the gathering of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more as you see the day approaching.
26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the Knowledge of the Truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful expectation of Judgment, yes, a Zealous Judgment. For it will come to pass that the adversaries will be devoured.

Read the following verses again.

Isayah 24:1-6—
1 Before Yahweh’s very eyes, the earth is made empty and it is made waste, the face of it is perverted and its inhabitants scattered abroad;
2 And it will be: as with the people, so with the priests; as with the servant, so with his owner; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with him who takes usury, so with him who gives usury to him:
3 The land will be utterly emptied and utterly plundered, for it has come to pass that this Judgment has been pronounced.
4 The earth mourns and fades away, the world mourns and fades away, and the haughty people of the earth languish.
5 The earth also is defiled because of the inhabitants of it, because they have transgressed the Laws, changed the Ordinance, and broken the Everlasting Covenant.
6 Because of this, the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell therein are desolate; therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.

Revelation 18:1-5, 8—
1 And after these things I saw a Malak come down from heaven, having great authority; and the earth was enlightened with His Glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the cup of her destruction because of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, My People, so that you do not partake in her sins, and so that you do not receive of her plagues,
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her transgressions against His Laws!
8 Therefore, at that time her plagues will come—death, and mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for just is the Judgment that has come to pass against her.
