"...this Man can not be from God, because He does not Keep The Sabbath Day." (holy-set-apart from other days) John 9:16- Matt.12 The Disciples with Jesus harvested grain and ate it on The Sabbath. Not obeying the law of preparing food the day before.Being'guiltless' before Jesus. But, not guiltless before men.- God rested from all He did on the 7th day.Not only didn't Adam rest on the 7th day.But God made a helper for him.Not till Adam's sin did God curse the ground for Adam's sake.Making seed time and harvest subject to the elements He created. As from it man would then have to rest in God's law from his work.In New Jerusalem there is no need of the sun to shine in it for God & The Lamb is New Jerusalem's Light.There God's creation is not subject to the elements for their subsistence. Rivers 0f Living Waters comes from His Throne watering the trees which produce 12 different fruits each month. So there is no 7 day weeks there. Nor any need for the sun to strike it's heat nor light.As in Eden there was no rain either, no former nor latter rains needed.Jesus said, He came to finish Hs Father's work. And every work Jesus did bore witness to Who He Is as The Light of The World. A greater witness than John's light.In Him there is no darkness, no shadow of turning of the sun.When we enter Him we enter into the rest of The Eternal Light 0f No Night.As we're also to be New Jerusalem. Jesus Is The Life Giving Spirit, The Last Adam.1Cor.15:45And we are New Creatures In Christ.

A sabbath day; mans work. A Sabbath Person, Jesus, Gods work. "It is finished". The Sabbath is now a Person, and He is in us by birthing of the incorruptable Seed of the Father in us, The Born Again sons of God.In Christ, my Sabbath: Phillip
