When is the Sabbath?

[Truthseeker]

In Amos 5:27, the reference to Israel’s apostasy into Saturn worship ends with: “saith the Lord, whose name is The God of hosts.”  The word “hosts”(42) refers to the sun, moon and stars, the celestial bodies which Israel wanted to worship, rather than worshipping the Creator of the celestial bodies.
The fact that Israel at times worshipped either on Saturn’s day or later by a continuous weekly cycle is no evidence that the modern Saturn’s day (Saturday) is the Sabbath of Creation.  Rather, the accumulation of scriptural and historical evidence supports the interpretation of this act of Israel as being one of gross apostasy and moral rebellion.  It is not coincidence that the seventh-day of the modern planetary week, the day on which the majority of sabbatarians worship, is none other than Saturn’s day. 
Too long have Jews and Saturday Sabbatarians looked pityingly or contemptuously upon Roman Catholics and Sunday-keeping Protestants.  Saturday Sabbatarians who have leveled charges of hypocrisy, intellectual dishonesty and inconsistency against those who worship on the first day of the week, are now learning the truth of the Biblical principle: “Do not judge lest you be judged.  For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you."
The truth is that worship on the seventh-day of a pagan calendar does not direct one’s worship to the Creator.  When one worships on Saturday, he/she is showing allegiance to the god of that day, the cruelest, most blood-thirsty of all the gods: Saturn.  The Lord God of Heaven is “merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgressions and sin.”  In kindness, “the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent.” The call of repentance going forth today is to return to true Biblical worship on the genuine Sabbath, calculated by Heaven’s ordained system of time-keeping: the luni-solar calendar established at Creation.And I keep saying and will once again direct you to www.wlc.com why! cause this is a huge subject start with 3 months in a row then of course look up the rest of the articles and e courses
Perhaps this may spark some interest to study, one can only pray so! however, I will not hold my breath

Thanks TruthSeeker for this info.
A few months ago I started reading the 3 months in a row and the calendar articles on WLC.  I know that I enjoyed reading the various articles on the calendar of different countries, however I was not convinced of the subject of the lunar Sabbath at that time.  Sadly my opportunities for further study has come to a close for the time being, but at the first opportunity, I'm going to continue my search into this subject.  In the meantime, I  have asked others to do so also.  When I've had a proper chance to study this topic of the lunar Sabbath, I'll write back here with my thoughts.

Thanks for the post very much.

Then if one is not convinced of time by design of the creator, Gen 1:14 (just to start ) and the ancients did not have the Julian /Gregorian calendars and no time pieces such as watches or clocks then how did they know when was a feast day or the Sabbath due, and I don't believe that the old sun dial would have been a sufficient time piece for this purpose, then there had to have been an efficient time use full system some where? and of course William Miller would not have been able to calculate his time frames using any other system than time by design of the Lunar / Solar system of calculation.I can assure you without hesitation that the Gregorian Saturday (Saturn's/Satan's) day is not the sabbath day of the Lord our God.

Am very interested in reading further and studying it.  I know that Ellen White said that the Sabbath would be preached more fully, so I have an open mind at this stage, but it's just not educated enough yet to examine in this new information.  It certainly does seem to be a possibility and I agree about the other calendars being far from God's intended markers of time.

Hope to get a chance to look more into it soon.
