GOD GUARDS THE WEEK
God considers the principle of a working week a matter of life and death. In the Old Testament disobedience by working on the Sabbath, instead of resting in God and keeping it holy, led to the death penalty for the most trivial of matters. Is God a nit picker and a slave driver? Not at all. Why then did He take it so seriously? He wanted the principle of the working week to remain intact for generations to come and not be diluted in any way, all the way down to our time. To emphasize the point to us today, the apostle said that he who does not work, does not deserve to eat! 'For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat' (2Thessalonians 3:10). God despises the idle who live off others
The concept of a working week will help us to understand His patterns of work and what God has in mind for end-times. We shall be able to unravel clues to the Age of the Earth as we read each of these articles in proper sequence. They will lead you step-wise into the true age of the Universe through the scriptures alone. The Bible is and was inspired by God. It is the bread of life.
Remember that it's the principle we are after. In our hearts we are 7 days per week in the presence of God, aren't we? Under grace it doesn't matter what day we set aside for our recreation or church attendance - let each church have their own preference, but fortunately the concept of the week is still alive in our minds whatever we practice. Jesus said we are not to judge when or what others eat. However, God Himself is continuing to work according to a plan He set down before the foundation of the world and that is what we need to understand. He works through history in accordance with the pattern for a week. He has a set working schedule for Himself that He intends to keep. We can discover His schedule from the Bible. Satan knows it full well too. He is doing everything he can to thwart God's intentions, but just like his blunder in crucifying Christ, he is continuing to unwittingly tighten the noose around his own neck at every turn.
