Rather, Sunday is the day after the Sabbath<b><\/b>\u00a0(<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Matt%2028.1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew 28:1<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>9. The seventh-day Sabbath dates from the beginning of time.<\/b> God established it during Creation week:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p2\">He \u201crested\u201d (ceased) from His work on the seventh day (Genesis 2:2).<\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\">He \u201cblessed\u201d (conferred favor or approval) on the seventh day (v. 3).<\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\">He \u201csanctified\u201d (set apart for special use) the seventh day (v. 3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>8.\u00a0<\/b><b>The Sabbath is fourth among the Ten Commandments,<\/b> stated twice in Scripture. In\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Exod%2020.8-11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Exodus 20:8-11<\/a>\u00a0Sabbath is the memorial of Creation \u2014 a time to honor God as Creator: \u201cRemember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work . . . For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Deut%205.12-15\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deuteronomy 5:12-15<\/a>,\u00a0Sabbath serves as a symbol of redemption \u2014 a time to honor God as Redeemer: \u201cObserve the Sabbath day, to keep it holy . . . and remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>7.\u00a0<\/b><b>Jesus taught that the Sabbath was a Creation ordinance given for the benefit of humanity, <\/b>not just for Jews: \u201cThe Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath\u201d\u00a0<b><\/b>\u00a0(<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Mark%202.27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mark 2:27<\/a>). Thus the Sabbath is much more than a law; it is a gift of God\u2019s care for everyone. God rested at the beginning, not because He was tired but to set an example for us who need the rest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>6.\u00a0<\/b><b>Sabbath became a key symbol of redemption in Jesus\u2019 ministry and teaching.<\/b> As God gave the Hebrews rest from Egyptian bondage, so Jesus gives rest from sin\u2019s slavery to those who trust Him: \u201cCome unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest\u201d\u00a0(<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Matt%2011.28\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew 11:28<\/a>). To illustrate this, Jesus did seven recorded miracles of healing on the Sabbath, setting captives free and delivering us from a regulation-dominated view of this blessed day (<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Matt%2012.1-12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew 12:1-12<\/a>). He could do this because He was Lord of the Sabbath (<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Mark%202.28\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mark 2:28<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As the Sabbath reminded the Hebrews of their deliverance from Egypt, so it reminds Christians of their deliverance from sin \u2014 the work of God and not of human beings. The symbol of Sabbath teaches us to lay down our labors and rest in Christ: All the redemptive work is done in Him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>5.\u00a0<\/b><b>The Sabbath is a preview, a type, of the coming kingdom of God,<\/b> when believers will enjoy eternal Sabbath rest\u00a0<b><\/b>\u00a0(<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Heb%204.1-11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hebrews 4:1-11<\/a>; v. 9 speaks of future rest awaiting the people of God). Each weekly rest day now is an earthly foretaste of heavenly rest, peace, and fellowship to come.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>4. Jesus\u2019 custom of weekly Sabbath observ\u00adance, according to the Decalogue, is an example for us<\/b> (<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Luke%204.16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Luke 4:1<\/a><b><\/b><a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Luke%204.16\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">6<\/a>). Apostle Paul and the early church, Gentiles included, also met every seventh day for worship, preaching, prayer, and evangelism (<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2013.42-44\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Acts 13:42-44<\/a>;\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2016.13\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16:13<\/a>;\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2017.2-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">17:2-4<\/a>;\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2018.1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">18:1<\/a>,\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2018.4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">4<\/a>,\u00a0<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Acts%2018.11\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11<\/a>). This custom of theirs never changes in Scripture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>3. Sabbath promotes human wellness via physical, mental, and emotional rest.\u00a0<\/b>The seventh day of each weekly cycle liberates us from the tyrannies and tensions of modern life: the clock, overtime, rushing to and fro, business and busy-ness, buying and selling, producing and consuming, work and worry. It\u2019s a day to be free from the requirement of doing, in favor of just being. This day of Divine rest for human restlessness is a gift that refreshes both body and soul.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>2. The Sabbath offers the added benefit of time to restore and cultivate human relationships.<\/b> Our lives are most valuable and satisfying through contact and interaction with others. Due to hectic schedules, however, the very relations essential to our human existence are often neglected. Sabbath slows us down to touch other lives in lasting ways. It affords quality time to bond with family, with friends, and with brethren in faith. It also invites us to reach into the community-at-large, helping others by meeting their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs, as Jesus consistently did on Sabbath. Our Lord is the one who taught us, \u201cIt is lawful to do good on the Sabbath\u201d\u00a0(<a class=\"rtBibleRef\" href=\"https:\/\/biblia.com\/bible\/esv\/Matt%2012.12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew 12:12<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>1. Sabbath regularly links us with the Lord, His Word, and His church in a way that little else can.<\/b> These are the most important relationships of our lives!<\/p>\n<p>Our human tendency is to rush through the week, offering God a fleeting nod here and there. The Sabbath, on the other hand, calls us to an intentional choice \u2014 to cease from other activities and focus attention on Him. Through extended time with God and His people, we learn again that the whole of our existence is wrapped up in our Creator, Savior, and coming King. Observing the Sabbath well, we become sensitive to the truth that we belong to God. It\u2019s not the Sabbath we worship but the God who set the Sabbath apart at Creation. The Sabbath is a memorial in time, a useful tool to help us focus our attention on our Source and destiny. As we look to Him, everything else finds its proper place, and we are better prepared \u2014 for time and for eternity.<\/p>\n<p>For those who don\u2019t know Him, we recommend Jesus Christ as the one true friend who invites you to Himself for authentic rest in time and eternity. For those who do know Jesus as Savior and Lord, we recommend the enduring gift of His Sabbath.<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\" data-provider=\"facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F426%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18968\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/facebook.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-twitter nolightbox\" data-provider=\"twitter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F426%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18968&#038;text=Hey%20check%20this%20out\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px;margin-right:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"twitter\" title=\"Share on Twitter\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/twitter.png\" \/><\/a><a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-48 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-mail nolightbox\" data-provider=\"mail\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Share by email\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Top%2010%20Reasons%20for%20Keeping%20Sabbath&#038;body=Hey%20check%20this%20out:%20https%3A%2F%2Fpublications.cog7engage.net%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fpages%2F426%3Fsimply_static_page%3D18968\" style=\"font-size: 0px;width:48px;height:48px;margin:0;margin-bottom:5px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"mail\" title=\"Share by email\" class=\"synved-share-image synved-social-image synved-social-image-share\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" style=\"display: inline;width:48px;height:48px;margin: 0;padding: 0;border: none;box-shadow: none\" src=\"https:\/\/publications.cog7engage.net\/wp-content\/plugins\/social-media-feather\/synved-social\/addons\/extra-icons\/image\/social\/clearslate\/96x96\/mail.png\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: \u201cWhy do millions of Christians around the globe observe a day of rest and worship on Saturday instead of Sunday?\u201d The short answer is that they are convinced from the Bible that the seventh day of each week is the true Sabbath, the day God himself set aside for rest and worship.
