Romans 14 “Doubtful Disputations, Sabbath or Venerable Sunday?”
(Hebrew idioms and/or Amplified in a Literal Galatians work.)
HalleluYahScriptures.com/ at bottom, a great resource.
Scriptures FOR keeping the Sabbath according to the Word:
Hebrews 4:7-11 “There REMAINS a keeping of the Seventh Day Sabbath.
Matthew 5:17 Messiah did not come to destroy the Law but to fulfill it (magnify it; or do away with it?)
Genesis 2:1-4 YaH set-apart and blessed the Seventh day Sabbath, but never another day of the week.
Exodus 20 Ten Commandment basic law includes the blessing you on the Sabbath on Seventh day, not first day. That was not a cultural thing only for people groups.
The resurrection was on a date of the MONTH, Aviv 17 (at end) not a DAY of the week. It never changed the Law.
Matthew 12:38-40, 28:1 See all Sabbath examples set by those in Acts. (9:20;13:42; 16:13; 17:2; 18:21; 20:16; 27:9.)
Would you sell your soul for the Day of Sun? Romans 6:23 “The wages of sin is death, reward of heaven is eternal life.”
Here are several interpretations of verse one.
Romans 14 by www.JewsForYeshua.com (bottom left of page).
Accept one who is weak in the Faith, but do not ARGUE over differences of opinion. :2 For one believes he may eat all things (that are lawful to eat) but he who is weak in the faith eats only vegetables.
:3 So, do not let those who eat kosher meat despise those who do not any kind of meat; and likewise, do not let those who do not eat any kind of meat condemn those who eat kosher meat, for YHVH has received them both.”
Romans 14:1 King James Scriptures. Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
Parallel Scripture Versions of Romans 14:
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Accept anyone who is weak in faith, but don't argue about doubtful issues.
International Standard Version
Accept anyone who is weak in faith, but not for the purpose of arguing over differences of opinion. ?
NET Bible
Now receive the one who is weak in the faith, and do not have disputes over differing opinions.
Aramaic Bible in Plain English
But offer a hand to the one who is weak in faith and do not be divided by your disputes.
GOD'S WORD® Translation
Welcome people who are weak in faith, but don't get into an argument over differences of opinion. (You should discuss teachings. Do not get angry and use carnal methods to win.)
The “doubtful disputations” of days in Romans 14 may be Hannukuh, Purim, the added days of fasting in NehemYah, Pagan Feast days, months, times and years in Galatians 4, New Age devices, visualization, psychologies in religion,
Laws in the Jewish Talmud (oral traditions), Constantine or Jereboam’s holidays. Do not strive over pagan customs.
HezekiYah Haas says Romans 14:5-6 "Shaul uses an analogy concerning Feast Days to show how favoring one kind of food (meat) to vegetables is like comparing one Feast day to another."
If men are not allowed to discuss, have dialogue about the Sabbath and Unclean, many will remain in ignorance and sin. Romans 6-8.
Bondage: Do we want freedom under YaH’s Law, the Torah, or bondage of Satan’s world systems? Do you want Liberty in YaH and His Messiah? Keep His Commandments, they are not burdensome
1 John 5:2-3; Psalm 1; 19; 119.
Where is there a command to keep the Venerable first day, Sunday? There is no command. None (except in RCC) !
Is compromising the Word worth throwing YaH’s laws in the trash can?
What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul? Luke 9:23-26; 10:12; 12:47; 13:23-28.
Luke 16:15 “For YaH knoweth your hearts: For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of YaHVaH.”
:17 “It is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the Torah to fail.” Doing away with YaH’s Law is a most doubtful disputation, grievous and terrible vanity!
Receive the blessing for all Jews and Gentiles by honoring our Father YaHVaH.
Luke 14:33 “He that forsaketh not ALL that he has, he cannot be my disciple.”
Luke 13:24 Are there few that be saved? And Messiah said unto them, “Strive to enter in at the straight gate, for many, will seek to enter in, and shall not find it.”
Luke 12:31 “Rather seek ye the kingdom of YaH; and all these things shall be added unto you. Fear not LITTLE flock; it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.”
12:37 “Blessed are those servants whom the Master when He commeth shall find watching: Verily I say unto you, that He shall gird Himself, and make them (or you) to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them (you).”
17:10 “We are unprofitable servants: We have done that which was our duty to do.” And Romans 12:1 “It is our reasonable service.”
18:30 “..Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, AND in the world to come: Life everlasting.”
Deuteronomy/Debarim 22 Where are the spiritual tokens of our virginity
Revelation, ZechariYah 14, and IsaiYah 66 shows where we will worship in the future, but not with Westernized culture, unscriptural denominations and deception.
Is it then a sin to NOT worship on Sunday? No.
Furthermore, where in Scriptures is there a command to change YaH’s calendar, Sabbath or Passover because of a blood moon or other reason? No legitimate excuse.
SABBATH RESTING AND TORAH: YaHVaH's Law (from our "Feasts" page)
The Sabbath is first mentioned in Gen/Ber 2:2-3, and it is always YaHVaH's rest day. It is a Scriptural Feast. This is from studying Heb. 4 and Torah. No work; sometimes no servile work as FOW, Trumpets.
Number 15:30-36 "And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moshe and Aharon, and unto all the congregation. 34 And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. 35 And YaHVaH said unto Moshe, The man shall be surely put to death: All the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. 36 And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as YaHVaH commanded Moshe."
"Gathering sticks" sounds pretty innocent. Could that be such a big deal as to stone the old man? In the Protestant world we ask our Creator, "Hey, come on, what's such a big deal?" I wonder if gathering sticks is kind of like gathering moss? No! Well, what is the Hebrew word for “sticks” here?
H6086. "H" for Hebrew 'ETS' pronounced "ates". From Strongs Concordance: "From H6095; a tree...hence wood (plural sticks) + carpenter...pine, plank, staff, stalk, stick, stock, timber, tree, wood."
Do you get the picture? This man wasn't gathering-up a little kindling for Granny who was freezing to death. He was LOGGING! That is quite a difference. Although technically kindling a fire is sin. Kindling often takes a lot of effort and coaxing. Tending a fire is also work. How much does it take to impale YaHOSHA afresh on the stake? Only one sin.
Hebrews/Ibrim 13:8 "YaHOSHA Messiah the same, yesterday, to day and forever". His standard never changes but man changes with his weak fickle soul.
Hebrews/Ibrim 4 "There therefore remaineth a keeping of the Shabbat to the people of YaHVaH."
Gen/Ber 15:26-26 "...and wilt give ear to His commandments (Ex 20), and keep all His statutes (not given until Ex 21), I will put none of these…I am YaHVaH that healeth.”
In the false belief called dispensationalism or incrementalism against the Torah it is held that the Shabbat and Torah weren't until Mt. Sinai with the giving of the Ten Commandments at Exodus 20. Why then are we seeing these commands prior to Ex 20? This is because Torah, the law, has been from everlasting TO everlasting. When Cain murdered Abel it was sin. If no law had been in place from the beginning, murder could not have been a sin.
FIRST PLACE OF MENTION
Do you establish doctrine by Shaul/Paul's letters? Or should you run to the sources Shaul had available at the time of the Twelve Apostles? Yes we should first understand the Torah, that's the basic law of YaHVaH. Then when Romans 14 or other comes to mind, we won't read our blinded Protestant theology into the Scripture passage.
Pure doctrine cannot be understood by personal observation only. Truth is revealed while we read the Word by the Spirit of YaHVaH.
THE SABBATH
Why hasn’t the Seventh Day Sabbath of Genesis been changed to the first day of the week? There is no prophecy that foretells such a change in the Commandments. The venerable day of the sun is the first of the week. The first day of the week is not YAHVAH’s separated day. Firstfruits/Pentecost is counted FROM the wavesheaf day so it always falls on the second of the week and not on Sunday, the day of the sun.
Wasn’t Messiah YaHOSHA risen from the dead on Aviv 18, the first of the week? No! In any year, remember He died on Aviv 14 and was resurrected on Aviv 17. Reading Matthew 12:38-40, 28:1 and DaniYah 9:27 easily proves this.
Isa_58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my pure day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the pure of YaHVaH, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
Then shalt thou delight thyself in YaHVaH; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of YaHVaH hath spoken it.
Study our page, "Sabbath Delight".
THE RESURRECTION OF YaHOSHA ha MASHIACH "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Yahosha Mashiach and shalt believe in thine heart that YaHVaH hath raised Him from the DEAD, thou shalt be saved." Romans 10:9
YaHVaH’s death burial resurrection: 1 Cor 10:2 "…ALL were immersed unto Moshe in the cloud and in the sea...and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed, and that Rock was Messiah."
YaHVaH of the so-called "Old Testament" is YaHVaH of the newer Testament or newer writings of YaHVaH.
Although there are formulas to calculate the Mashiach death, burial and resurrection, here is a plain formula:
Aviv 14 death and burial
Aviv 17 resurrection of Messiah
Aviv 14 and 17 fall on various days of the week.
YaHoSHA Mashiach was impaled on Aviv 14 and was buried in the tomb, he slept and was dead three days and three nights, and he arose three days later on Aviv 17. Look up Matthew 12:38-40 and 28:1. Messiah rose from the grave giving eternal life for those who will receive Him.
The sequence also involves the "buying of spices", "preparing and bringing of spices". The spices to anoint Mashiach were BOUGHT and prepared on the sixth day, Aviv 16. They BROUGHT the spices to the tomb on the first day of the week, Aviv 18 after YaHOSHA, the Son, arose.
Go to WWW.GiveShare.Org for complete details. Remember to mentally change any pagan names for YaHVaH on that site.
A clue about the timing is Yochanon 11:9, "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" Luke 2:34; Jonah 1:17; Dan 9:26; Hosea 6:2; Acts 9:9.
Think of whether Paul was three days without sight or like everything else today, is this also allegorical and was it only a day and a half?
Next is the change of the Fourth Commandment by the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) from Sabbath to Sunday, which is the venerable day of the sun. It is an administration problem: Not of RCC church members.
In prophecy, there isn't any Scripture which foretells that His death, burial or resurrection would change His Separated rest day, the Seventh Day Shabbat (Sabbath). But actually some tried to change YHVH’s set-apart day! Yereboam tried to change the day. 1 Kings 12:32a "And Yereboam ordained a feast in the eight month, on the fifteenth day of the month, LIKE UNTO THE FEAST THAT IS IN YAHUDAH and he offered upon the altar".
DaniYah (Daniel) 7:25: "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws…"
How are we any different from nominal church goers? Some cannot even tolerate tough times and religious trials of our faith; there is no testing or refining, no discernment, no religion and no Covenant relationship with YaHVaH.
We must respect and follow YaHVaH’s Torah. This is found from Genesis/Bereshith through Deuteronomy/Debarim, through MattithYahu and the Sermon on the Mount, to The Revelation at the end of chapter twenty-two. Repent! Hallel YaHVah!
YaHVaH's sheep can be naive.
Others have temptations with watching television, playing almost any game or cleaning the church on the Sabbath. This is transgression.
Luke 16:15 “For YaH knoweth your hearts: For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of YaHVaH.”
:17 “It is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the Torah to fail.” Doing away with YaH’s Law is a most doubtful disputation, grievous and terrible vanity!
Receive the blessing for all Jews and Gentiles by honoring our Father YaHVaH. Luke 14:33 “He that forsaketh not ALL that he has, he cannot be my disciple.”
Luke 13:24 Are there few that be saved? And Messiah said unto them, “Strive to enter in at the straight gate, for many, will seek to enter in, and shall not find it.”
Luke 12:31 “Rather seek ye the kingdom of YaHH; and all these things shall be added unto you. Fear not LITTLE flock; it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.”
12:37 “Blessed are those servants whom the Master when He commeth shall find watching: Verily I say unto you, that He shall gird Himself, and make them (or you) to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them (you).”
17:10 “We are unprofitable servants: We have done that which was our duty to do.” And Romans 12:1 “It is our reasonable service.”
18:30 “..Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, AND in the world to come: Life everlasting.”

"ALWAYS LET OUR CULTURE BE OUR GUIDE, and our method of interpretation of Scripture." Is This the truth? The Secular and Religious media are to hold us as subjects and be our mouthpiece and heart (or kidney for my African brothers). We are to commit lewdness, let the modern music of the MEDIA please our flesh?
YEREMIYAH 6 THROUGH 9 are very interesting brethren. I will print out YeremiYah 6. Even though in English they spell Jeremiah with "iah", I know that they hid Yah's root family Name. I take these names and restore "YAH" as a part of many personal and national names.
Check the Hebrew Lexicon or Concordance for the correct spelling.
YeremiYah 6:9-19 YaHVaH is speaking through YeremiYah
"To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of YaHVaH is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
Therefore I am full of the fury of YaHVaH; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.
And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith YaHVaH.
For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.
They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith YaHVaH.
Thus saith YaHVaH, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my Torah, but rejected it."
Let us seek for the truth and the peace of all Yisrael my dear sisters and brothers. Until we meet again! Shalom, this is TsephanYah
How to order Scriptures:
1) We use the KJV King James Version, then we mentally replace the common names with the correct ones (I transpose in my mind). I know from the book, "Come Out of Her My People" what the 50 common, corrupted words are (like LORD), and what the correct one should be. On the YHVH page of WWW.YaHVaHYahweh.Name near the bottom is that list.
https://www.HalleluYahScriptures.com/ is the best we have seen.
Order Hebrew Restoration Scriptures from http://www.qodesh.co.za/PRICELIST.pdf item B5, but they use the W in Yahweh, and they use Yashua (read our article about Messiah Name).They are in Africa; but the USA outlet is Institute for Scripture Research or ISR http://isr-messianic.org/shop/hebraic-roots-version/
New Testament from Hebrew! Now available at www.JewsForYeshua.com I suggest method #1 above using KJV or JewsForYeshua.com. Alternatively you could download Scriptures for free using the corrupted names, then use Microsoft Word - Copy the scripture - paste it into your Word processor. Push the "Replace with" key, usually Control "H" ; type in the corrupt word, then in next box enter the correction. Click "CHANGE ALL". It sometimes makes words run together. I enter Christ--replace with Messiah, and it will make up a word like "Messiahians". To download Scriptures try WWW.BibleHub.com E4 group sells CD $5 usa interactive Strongs concordance and Lexicons in Hebrew Greek on CD. I like E4 especially, but E4 wants to sell you their denominational Commentaries which depart from the harmony of Scripture. Tell them no thank you. Matthew Henry is exceptionally good however.
