Friday 2021.11.12
Today is the Sixth Day of the Biblical Week. It is Preparation Day. Let us finish all our tasks for the week, tie up all loose ends, and prepare to enter into Sabbath Rest when the Seventh Day begins at sunset this evening.
In my reading of the New Testament this afternoon, I read chapters 12 and 13 of the Acts of the Apostles.
In Acts chapter 13, the Apostle Paul, on his First Missionary Journey, spoke to a Jewish congregation in the synagogue of Antioch in Pisidia on a Sabbath day, saying in verses 38 and 39:
- Acts 13:38 - 39 WNT Weymouth New Testament
-
"Understand therefore, brethren, that
through this Jesus forgiveness of sins is announced
to you;
and in Him every believer is absolved from all offences, from which you could not be absolved under the Law of Moses.
Brothers and Sisters in the Lord Iesus, let us remind ourselves that through Iesus we have forgiveness of sins. Let us keep in our hearts that in Him we are absolved from all offences. Let us therefore strive to live an upright life, holy and acceptable to God our Father and our Lord Iesus the Anointed One.
