The Sabbath: A Biblical Investigation
May’s Bonus Study. Over the past few months, we have had a good number of people email us with questions regarding the Sabbath. Here are a few of the questions:
- What is the Sabbath?
- What was the purpose of the Sabbath?
- Did Jesus change the Sabbath?
- How did we develop our present Protestant understanding of the Sabbath today?
- Does the Sabbath have a part to play in our prophetic future?
The good news is that Dr. Michael Lake has already taught extensively on the Sabbath from a balanced and biblical point of view. He will take you step-by-step through the Word of God regarding the Sabbath: from Genesis to Revelation. If this generation is going to return to biblicity, it must have an honest conversation about the Sabbath and its dynamics in the Kingdom
Please can you help me how to do to listen because I don’t know how thank you

Dear Dr. Lake,
you are addressing an issue that has been on my heart for years… I have consulted with many a “man of God”, but still am called by the word… Remember! Now I am wondering how do I go about this? Have my 7th day,and still enjoy fellowship and worship on the first day? Why not! Thank you SO much for your clear words and pure heart!
Dr.Lake, wonderfully and inspired teaching. Lesson 4 was my favorite as you expanded my understanding of the Sin of Jeroboam and Rehoboam for that matter. Praise YHWH!
May YHWH continue to bless you all. In Messiah,
It occurred to me while listening to lesson 4 that Solomon was conceived in lust and rebellion; could it be that a family curse was operating in his life?
Solomon was not conceived in lust and rebellion. That child died under judgment from God. Solomon was born later after they were married.
Dr. Lake, Thank you so much! I am on the 4th Lesson. When I began to listen to Lesson 1, I began to experience anointing, and the peace of God came over me in wonderful way. The new things that I have learned are not received in my sphere of influence. God is directing me day by day, and I so appreciated your ministry. I received two healings yesterday, in one day. I prayed, and God removed sharp pain in my back. He gave me instruction. I obeyed, and found great relief. The second things was a headache beyond a migraine, and the Lord healed me instantly. I am always after God’s heart and love His Word. I love His presence. Your teaching increased my faith in a way that is so wonderful, and I am so grateful to God for allowing me to hear it. Many in The Body of Christ are starving and in much bondage, but thanks be to God for His wonderful Word of life and truth. Thank you so very much for your ministry!
Hello Dr Lake – your lectures on the sabbath are really encouraging – I’m always amazed when christians say we don’t have to keep the 10 commandments and then go ahead and keep every one of them except the sabbath – they would never murder or steal or covet or worship other gods, even though they believe they don’t have to keep the commandments – the only one they don’t honour is the 7th day sabbath. They are truly missing one of the best blessings from God
Thanks for making these lectures available
WWJD (What would Jeroboam do?) versus WWJD (What would Jesus do?) What a contrast!
Praise the Most High God! After.30 years being saved, I have finally found a Pastor who has the same passion for the Scripture and 99% the same understanding of it as me! EVERYTHING about the feasts, ( I used to teach this to my students) about how every word is historical, personal and prophetic! String theory, how time works in Sheol, string theory, multi dimensions of the 3 heavens, time, deliverance, healing through Christ. I thought I would have to wait until Jesus returned to hear the truth and be vidicated. Now I’m truly sure of the Truth God has revealed to me from the beginning. I am dancing in the Spirit! Now, has God showed you anything about the timeframe of Moses’s life also being a prophetic key? It totally meshes with the feasts and is why we will sing the Song of Moses when we cross the “Red Sea” and enter into the Wilderness (Tabernacles) of the Millennial Kingdom? I haven’t heard any other teaching on that so far other than what God downloaded to me in answer to a simple question.

The Holy Spirit has not led me down that trail to examine. I already have enough on my plate for two guys half my age. 🙂 One day, the Almighty may have me examine it. 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to comment. I understand. Every time I do research the Bible is like a giant fractal and you can get caught on just one trail for a LONG time! On another note, Lesson 5 was beautiful words in due season. I have been caught up in a church split wondering which way to go ever since our Pastor started teaching the Khazar theory based on Tex Marres book. Strangely enough, God had brought me down that theory years before and the month before had me read a book on genetics so I knew enough to know his theory was wrong. When I questioned my own views the Lord told me, “Stay true to the revelation from me that you had from the beginning.” He then led me to you through a testimony from your wife about DID. Praise God! I also appreciate the caution from going Culturally Jewish as I know many friends who have Bar/Bat Mitzvah their kids and pray only in the name of Yeshua. You have the same balanced Biblical view the Lord showed me. 🙂 I also know that in Deliverance God often brings me insight from the Torah on why a particular person is struggling with a demonic stronghold. God used it to show me why he didn’t want me to get a memorial tattoo and how to recognize when a Church has been taken over by the priests of Ba’al. Also when I asked God to deliver me from Smoking he told me, “First throw away your brand new pack and never buy another.” I agree that every he promises a Blessing, in my life he has always put forth a requirement first. Finally, I have been out of work for 7 years because God warned me that I was not following the Sabbath and I ignored him. He said, “If you give me the Sabbath when I have required it, I will take it from you all at once, just as I did to Judah during the Babylonian captivity.” I am now on the difficult road back to obedience and I am soooooooo thankful for the encouragement in your teaching. God has again answered my prayers in you, a shepherd that feeds the sheep.
If you *DON’T* give me the Sabbath when I have required it, I will take it from you all at once. . . .” Sorry.
