Terry, Even a blind man reading the 3rd commandment would not think that you cannot feed hungry animals and children, or change a soiled diaper on a baby, or minister to the sick. Or you can't eat a handful of grain as you are walking through a field. That's the kind of thing legalists read into the "law". The Spirit says love is the overarching rule. You rest in Him, you think on Him, you love everyone and everything as you do this. Izzy

He did a good thing, but it was still work. This has nothing to do with man made traditions. Man's traditions said you could care for animals on the Sabbath. The commandment does not. They added a lot of stuff, like how far you could walk on Saturday and on and on. None of that stuff is necessary any more. A certain lawyer was one of the first to hear that. It is recorded in the tenth chapter of Luke, starting at verse twenty-five. Don't read the whole book of Luke or you will get the idea that the Pharisees were pretty much a bunch of hypoctites. :-) Terry > > > ---------- "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man."
