The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum Question of Liberty versus Legalism

Thank you for your thoughts, William.


To ridicule someone for a matter of their own conscience would be a terrible thing. If they are convinced in their own hearts, then it's a matter of them following their conscience in a manner of obedience.


Do you (or any of y'all) think this matter of Sabbath keeping would be similar to the issue Paul spoke about in Romans regarding those whose consciences forbade them from eating meat that had been offered to idols? Is this a matter on which one should be allowed his conscience on or do you see it more as a right/wrong sin/obedience issue that the erring one needs to be informed and educated about and held to that standard?

Thank you all for your thoughts and input.

*Edited to say that when speaking of "Sabbath/Lord's Day keeping" I am NOT referring to missing corporate worship. I am speaking more of activities between or after worship, as stated in your quote above. To me, failure to assemble in corporate worship on the Lord's day is a no brainer whether you are a Sabbatarian or not.
