Sabbath Day

Sabbath Day

3rd Commandment
Sign of  irrevocable covenant
Sabbath is for the Lord
Set apart for the praise of Eternal God
Rternal God’s action is the model of human action
Father Christ gives this law an authentic and authoritative interpretation
Sabbath was made for man
Not man for the Sabbath
Sabbath was declared for doing good
Rather than harm
Saving life rather than killing
A day of the Lord of mercies
A day to honor Eternal God
The Eternal Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath
