So I looked and on the main brochure that they handed out earlier today it read...
FRIDAY, September 7...6:00 p.m. Shabbat (Gym)."
I couldn't believe it. "They have Shabbat?"
My wife says, "It's on their website, something about exploring Hebrew Roots."
So I looked on their website and saw this:
FIRST FRIDAY
Shabbat: Explore the Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith
Fall Festivals--"The Sweetness of the New Beginnings"
SEPTEMBER 7 - 6:00-8:00 PM - RM 105
RSVP by Tuesday, September 4 by calling the church office
I'll go check it out this Friday and let you all know how it goes. I can't wait to meet the people who run it.
Is this a new trend with Baptists?
I can't remember exact dates, but if you travel back in history, about 100 years ago, many protestant churches kept the Shabbat, it was a later adoption of Catholic Authority/doctrine that destroyed this.

DeleteAs stated earlier, they were not the only protestants keeping Shabbat, there were more... but you know the deal.
I think that when any group decides to follow the Scriptures in their literal and natural meaning, not only as a source of dogma but also of culture, they will soon arrive to an understanding of the centrality of Hashem's sabbath.
ReplyDeleteIt's not so much a denominational thing as it is a "how closely will we follow the Scriptures" thing.
