This bible study gives scriptural evidence that the Sabbath day will be observed in the last days and during the millennium. It is based rock solid on the word of God. Its purpose is only to glorify the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you notice any errors you may contact us.
MATTHEW 24:15-20 (Jesus to his disciples)
15 Therefore when you shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoever reads, let him understand:)
16 Then let those who are in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him who is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 And woe to those who are with child, and to those who give suck in those days!
20 But pray that your flight is not in the winter, nor on the Sabbath day.
Note: Why did Jesus tell his disciples to "pray that your flight is not ... on the Sabbath day."? Simply because in the very last days, which Jesus is talking about here, they will still be keeping the Sabbath, and some may be unwilling to travel on that day, which could prevent their flight. In those days only true believers in Jesus will be left of the Jews (Zechariah 12:9-10; 13:8-9; Romans 11:26). This scripture (Matthew 24:20) shows that Jesus expected the Jews to be keeping the Sabbath commandment in the very last days.
ISAIAH 66:22-24
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, says the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me
says the LORD.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire
be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.
Note: Looking at this in context, it seems to be after the second coming of Jesus:
(Isaiah 66:15-16) "For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and
his rebuke with flames of fire.
For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the
slain of the LORD shall be many."
This being so, it will be a time when the Devil will be chained in the bottomless pit (Revelation 20:1-3), and because he will not be able to deceive the nations any more, they will all be able to come to worship God, "from one Sabbath to another" (Isaiah 66:23). If we will observe the Sabbath day at that time, then it shows that it has not been done away with.
