Hello Ron.
I keep the Sabbath. Ray said there is nothing wrong with that if you want to.
In my opinion, it is impossible for someone to keep the Sabbath every day of the
week. God Blessed the SEVENTH DAY, and He sanctified if ( set apart from the rest )
If a person goes to church on any other day af the week, They are not keeping
the day God set apart. He did not say go to church on His Sabath, He said ( DO NO
WORK ) on THAT DAY, A person does not keep a day holy by working on that day.
I Believe a person should ( work out your own salvation with fear and trembling: ) Phil.2:12
Have a
GREAT DAY.

Hi Earl,
Ray does explain in quite detailed fashion in the paper below, what you are using is a half quote that is incorrect.
Excerpt from: Keeping SABBATH: http://forums.bible-truths.com/index.php/topic,6310.msg50887.html#msg50887
HOW MANY DAYS DO WE ENTER INTO GOD’S REST
So people ask me about everything from circumcision to fasting, Passover, the Lord’s supper, baptism and all these things. They ask me a lot, ‘do you keep the Sabbath day.’ In other words do I stop working and stop doing everything on Friday night until Sat. night, don’t go anywhere, don’t do anything, just study and pray or whatever and go to church.
So they say, ‘do you keep the Sabbath?’ I say absolutely, everyday of the week. They don’t know what to make of that. I keep the Sabbath everyday of the week. How do I keep the Sabbath everyday of the week? Because I know what the Sabbath means. If you know what the Sabbath means, you can not possibly keep it on Saturday only, you can’t. If you know what it means and you do it on Saturday only, it’s proof that you don’t know what it means. And I’ll show you that. If you can’t keep the Sabbath on everyday, then you are not keeping the Sabbath in the spirit of truth at all.
Further you can’t do any of these things. We’ll go through these things, the Lord’s supper, communion, what the Catholics call mass and so on.
I made a list of physical rituals that carnal-minded Christians like to do, according to their faith. Well depending on which religion, but sooner or later everybody does some of this. The physical letter of the law can, in fact, deceive you.
Tithing - pseudo tithing
Religious pilgrimages
Circumcision
Holy Day observance
Clean and unclean foods
Prayer cloths
Foot-washing
Fasting
Alter calls
Water baptism
Making vows
Anointing oil
Burning incense
Doing penance
Speaking in gibberish
Lighting candles
Pictures
Icons
Idols
Holy water
Holy smoke
Confession
Last rights
Sign of the cross
Rosary beads
Wearing phylacteries
The Lord’s Supper
Sabbath keeping
New moons
Prayer wheels
Religious junk

You have to read both verses and understand all the words or it gets really confusing.
Php 2:12
So that, my beloved, as ye always obey, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, with fear and trembling your own salvation work out,
Php 2:13
for God it is who is working in you both to will and to work for His good pleasure.
Note: verse 12 aIt is a comma not a period between nd verse 13.

Helllo George.
I, like Ray, don't condemn anyone, Catholic or other, for what they believe or how
they worship.
and I would be very afraid of Gods' wrath if told someone they didn't have to keep
God's Commandments.
It looks like you want to argue over comma's and periods. I would like for you to
go to Ray's e-mails. and look at the one that says, (What is true Godly worship.)
He replyed to a person named Barry. and said, " Why didn't Paul worshiop in the
Temple or in the synagogues or in the city." NOTICE VERSE 12 there is no comma
or period, from , "And they neither found me in the Temple disputing with any one
nor inciting the crowd," does that verse say he didn't go into a Temple or Synagogue?
NO, Did Paul go into the Synagogue on the Sabbath to worship? YES.
Look at Acts 17:2 Then Paul AS HIS CUSTOM WAS went in to then, and for three
Sabbaths reasoned with them from the scriptures. Also. Acts 18:4 " And he reasoned
in the Synagogue EVERY SABBATH.
So much for your comma's and periods. Earl

I'm locking this thread now as it is becoming a debate on keeping the Sabbath.
Excerpt from 'Please read this before joining and posting' (http://forums.bible-truths.com/index.php/topic,3.0.html):
If you are considering joining this forum before reading and studying www.bible-truths.com, please reconsider.
It would be beneficial to all involved if you take the time to familiarize yourself with the teaching of L.Ray Smith first.
This is not the place to decide if you agree with the teaching of L.Ray Smith, but a place you can retreat to when you do.
This forum is primarily a place for people of a like mind to fellowship, and secondarily to discuss and question what they learn on bible-truths.com.
Ray has an entire bible study on the Sabbath...if one doesn't agree, this is not the outlet for that.
