Sabbath 7: WHY DID GOD MAKE THE SABBATH EXCLUSIVELY FOR MAN? WHAT IS MAN?



The SABBATH WAS MADE EXCLUSIVELY FOR MAN (Mark 2:27). And the SON OF MAN => Christ Jesus, the LOGOS or WORD OF GOD, is the LORD OF THE SABBATH (Mark 2:28). In other words, the weekly 7th Day Sabbath, which is the foundation of all the Annual Sabbaths, was not made for the Angels and the Physical Sciences & Technologies. The Sabbath was made only for Mankind.

WHY WAS THE SABBATH MADE ONLY FOR MAN? WHAT IS MAN?

Man was designed and created by God according to His own IMAGE and LIKENESS, and to have dominion, or to rule all of His Creation, both the Physical and Spiritual (Genesis 1:26-28, Psalms 8:6, Hebrews 2:8).
 
  • GOD said, Let us MAKE MAN IN OUR IMAGE, AFTER OUR LIKENESS: and let them HAVE DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the Earth. (Gen 1:26 KJV)
  • So GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE, IN THE IMAGE OF GOD CREATED HE HIM; Male and Female created He them. (Gen 1:27 KJV)
  • And GOD BLESSED THEM, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and REPLENISH THE EARTH, AND SUBDUE IT: AND HAVE DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the Earth. (Gen 1:28 KJV) 
The QUALITY AND FUTURE OF THE MACROCOSM UNIVERSE/S DEPEND ON THE QUALITY AND FUTURE OF THE Microcosm Universe => MAN

Whatever is the quality or the stature of Man affects the quality and existence of the Physical and Spiritual Universes, including the Heavenly Angels. Thus, by recharging Man with the Holy Energy provided by the 7th Day Sabbath, all God's Creation (The Angels, Heavens, Earth, Moon, Stars, Galaxies, and everything therein), are subsequently charged to assure their continuing existence (Psalms 8:3-8). 
  • When I consider thy Heavens, the WORK OF THY FINGERS, the Moon and the Stars, which thou hast ordained; (Psa 8:3 KJV)
  • WHAT IS MAN, that thou art mindful of Him? and THE SON OF MAN, that thou visitest Him? (Psa 8:4 KJV) 
  • For thou hast made Him a little lower than the Angels, and hast crowned Him with Glory and Honour. (Psa 8:5 KJV)
  • Thou madest Him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under His feet: All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. (Psa 8:6-8 KJV) 
The above wonderful truth was quoted and expounded further in the New Testament (Hebrews 2:5-11).

THE QUALITY AND ETERNAL SUCCESS OF MANKIND DEPENDS ON THE HOLY ENERGY PROVIDED BY GOD'S 7TH DAY SABBATH

The Image and Likeness of God in Man make Man like God (Genesis 1:26-27). This means that Man must think, speak, and do like God. And as God rested (Shabbath) on the 7th Day from His Physical Work, so Man should rest or have a Sabbath from his Physical Work (Hebrews 4:9-11).
  • A SABBATH REST REMAINS, therefore, for God's people. (Heb 4:9 HCSB)
  • For THE PERSON WHO HAS ENTERED GOD’S (SABBATH) REST HAS RESTED FROM HIS OWN WORKS, JUST AS GOD DID FROM HIS(Heb 4:10 HCSB)
  • Let us then MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ENTER GOD'S SABBATH REST, so that no one will fall into the same pattern of disobedience. (Heb 4:11 HCSB)
