seventh day arrives when it cannot be done. Chores. etc. This person told me it was really wracking. They were not engaging in it to argue a point, but to honestly try it. And to think that all of that change and effort is necessary to keep the sabbath, shows quite an effort to change, let alone work twice as much on the sixth day.
Brother Blume, it seems illogical to me that the 10 commandments, which were written by the finger of God rather than dictated to Moses, are to be done away with.
They all are the culmination of loving God, and loving your neighbor:

Quote:
Romans 13:8-10
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
As far as preparation being difficult, I don't believe cooking food in advance on Friday for two days will be a problem.
And then spending Saturday praying, reading, writing, taking walks, and spending time with my family will be a great preparation for Sunday worship.

I have a great advantage in that I am introverted, love to read and love to spend time at home and in nature.

My Sister texted me yesterday about going out to eat and to the mall on Saturday, I'm going to text her back and say "let's pack a picnic lunch, go the wildlife preserve and take a long walk."
The area I live in has many parks and preserves, not to mention beaches, rivers, and lakes, and the climate is so accommodating for taking long walks and enjoying nature.
