Pastor James continues our sermon series on The Ten Commandments looking at Exodus 20:8-11
"On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight." - Acts 20:7
"Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb." - John 20:1
“Christ took the Sabbath into the grave with him and brought the Lord’s Day out of the grave with him on the resurrection mourn.” - B.B. Warfield
"One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord." - Romans 14:5-6a
"Let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath." - Colossians 2:15
We can remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy by setting aside one day every week for corporate worship.
"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near." - Hebrews 10:24-25
We can remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy by cultivating trust in God’s provision through the discipline of rest.
“...the blasphemous anxiety to do God’s work for him.’ - Eugene Peterson
We can remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy by intentionally resting in the finished work of Christ.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” - Matthew 11:28-30
