Sabbath Observing Denominations — Sabbath Churches

Below is a list of over 500 Sabbath keeping Churches of all different denominations. Many say that Sabbath keeping is legalism but legalism is something you do to earn your way to heaven. The hundreds of different Sabbath keeping Churches that know the blessings of keeping God's Sabbath do not keep the day to earn entrance into the kingdom but keep the day because they love God with all their heart, soul and might. Salvation is a free gift and so there is nothing we can do to earn our entrance into the kingdom as we are justified by faith and not by works of the law. But does this mean we do not have to obey the law? Thankfully, Paul made the answer to this question clear and informs us that we do not make void the law through faith. Romans 3:31. For even further clarity, Romans 2:13 leaves no doubt as to who is justified before God. See saved by faith for more detailed information. Select the following for Frequently Asked Questions and misunderstandings on the fourth Commandment.

Sabbath keeping Churches know that keeping the Sabbath day is a SIGN that it is God we love and worship and that we are His children. It is also a SIGN that it is God that sanctifies us and makes us Holy. These are wonderful signs and very much a blessing. What happens when we devote a full day to God because we love Him so? What is the result of spending quality time with anyone you love? This of course is not legalism by any means and applies to any of the Ten Commandments. It is something we do because we love God and our fellow man. Even though we cannot earn our way into the kingdom by keeping the Ten Commandments, we are still judged by them and will not make it into the kingdom by not trying to keep them all in love and obedience to God. Jesus said in John 14:15, “If you love me, keep my Commandments.” and in John 15:10, “If you keep my Commandments, you shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's Commandments, and abide in his love.” Jesus obeyed the Fathers Commandments and He asks us to demonstrate our love for Him by doing the same. We also find in 1 John 2:4, “He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his Commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” See also Matthew 7:21-23, Hebrews 10:26-29.

Sabbath keeping Churches also know that God said we are to call His Holy day a delight, not legalism.

Isaiah 58:13-14 “If you turn away your foot from the sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a DELIGHT, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shall honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: 14 Then shall you delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause you to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.”

Finding a Sabbath keeping Church
Note firstly that a more comprehensive list of Sabbath keeping Churches than what is provided below can be purchased from “The Bible Sabbath Association.” Their book contains the different Church branches, addresses and phone numbers as well as other information about the Churches. The list of Sabbath keeping Churches below is not complete as there is now well over 500 different denominations that have discovered the truth about this forgotten Commandment that was lost in the dark ages, and the list is growing larger by the day. We will continue to update this list from time to time and add to it accordingly. If your Sabbath keeping denomination is not on this list, please advise us and we will add it.

Please Note: We cannot vouch for the accuracy of the Biblical teaching from any of the denominations listed below. Some of these Churches are known to still keep the various feast Holy days that were nailed to the cross. For more information see the Ten Commandments and the ceremonial law or Colossians 2:16.

Some of the largest Sabbath keeping Churches would be the Seventh Day Baptist, Seventh-day Adventist, Church of God and the United Church of God but this last one still unnecessarily keeps the feast days that ended at the cross. Here is their Church locator but I do not recommend them because of their wrong teachings on the feasts among other things. The Seventh-day Adventist Church understands Bible prophecy better than any other Churches I have investigated but they are attacked by people more fiercely then you can ever imagine. I have not been able to substantiate any of the rumours or attacks on this Church and they seem to be deliberate attacks inspired by Satan himself because they prove to be a huge threat to him. I often found the Christian web sites attacking to be ex-Adventists that did not understand something so decided to turn on the whole Church instead and condemn it. Satan seems to be good at doing that so you will need to decide for yourself. Here is their Church locator if interested. There is not much I can tell you about the other Churches.

WARNING: The most accurate of these Churches is the one that has the most criticisms and attacks coming against it. Never underestimate the ability of the enemy to make a Church with the most Biblical truth and the best understanding on Bible Prophecy to be labelled falsely as a cult. It should be obvious to us that Satan will attack truth the hardest and has no trouble finding those he can deceive to accomplish his task very convincingly. To find the most Biblically accurate Church, you will need to personally do your own research and not just read web sites. The exception to this would be reading the web site that belongs to the Church to find out what they believe and compare this against the Word of God. Even this can be challenging as some of the things that you may assume to be wrong may in fact be right. The link below on finding the remnant Church shows what the early Church taught and believed and will help greatly. If you see nothing else here, please note the following:

What is truth is not always popular and what is popular is not always truth. The Church with the most truth will more often than not be the Church with the most people and web sites attacking it.

It is interesting to note that the biggest and most Biblically inaccurate Church, which is none other than mystery Babylon (Revelation 17) and a woman riding a beast (a woman in prophecy is a Church) that has the blood of millions of Christian saints on her hands has almost nothing coming against it. Why is this so? Satan attacks the Church with the most truth with the equivalent fire power of Hydrogen bombs and almost all Christians just believe these attacks like they are Gospel truth without researching to find out if they are lies. On the other hand, Satan does not attack this Church mystery Babylon at all that is guilty of so much heresy and crimes against God's people that God is going to destroy it with plagues at the time of the Battle of Armageddon. This Church is none other than the Church that changed God's Sabbath to Sunday in favour of Sun worship. You will find that any Sabbath keeping denomination of any significant size will have Satan coming against it. It is important to Satan that he keeps Christians deceived on the truth about the Sabbath especially. Read 666 and the mark of the beast or mark of the beast to find one of the reasons why. See also who and what is the Antichrist for solid Biblical proof and detailed information or antichrist truth revealed for brief detail.

For guidance in finding a Biblically accurate Church, you will find the web site finding the Remnant Church extremely helpful. Please do not ask us what denomination we are as we would rather you judge truth by the Word of God and not by what Church we attend.
