Gleaning on the Sabbath


I was thinking. I caused alot of strife, etc especially with my kids on preparation day, I mean EGW said guard EVERY second, She emphasized this heavily in many writings,''Naturally in this day in age it is an impossibility-some do grow and WORK at it so hard they seem to be prepared but think of this- You can clean a house totally, but it still isn't really 100% clean.

But more so ponder this: Jesus was blamed for gleaning the wheat fields on the Sabbath. NOW THINK, He worked the area regularly, He knew the law like no other.
Can one (and I have only seen this at nearly 60) not see that if the preparation day was so important (as it had to be in the exodus with the 3 million needing 'tuff love' (bootcamp), that Jesus and His disciples would have gathered and gotten the wheat seeds out well before the Sabbath Day??? I mean they were in the area, theyhad to have had rags, little bags for their money, etc.surely they could have had their seed prepared for the Sabbath day.

this again, shows me that we are to observe the Sabbath as before the Exodus and after, but the Pharisees messed it up, and along comes EGW thinking she is a Moses type (even though that type of a prophet ended with John).

This is so clear. The devil has caused countless millions to have harsh feelings on preparation day and Jesus never made a big deal out of it as a salvational issue as did EGW OVER AND OVER.
