Remember The Sabbath Day Series

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 24, 2022

The Sabbath cannot be found on any calendar! It is one day out of every seven days that we are to rest from our work. The argument of the Sabbath being Saturday or Sunday is nothing more than an exercise in futility!

The Ten Commandments are the foundation of God's Law. I say that because the Bible indicates more than just these ten. Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the ...read more

Getting The Sabbath Right Series

Contributed by John Dobbs on Jan 29, 2021

Jesus Is Lord Of The Sabbath

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Aug 24, 2013

The analysis of Jesus as lord of the Sabbath as set forth in Luke 6:1-5 shows us Jesus' understanding of his own identity.

Debate Over The Sabbath Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 19, 2017

Jesus remained under attack from the Pharisees. Their demands for adherence to unbiblical standards clouded their vision and desire for Christ. Sadly these attitudes remain today. While we must adhere to doctrine, the Lord affords liberty through grace.

Debate over the Sabbath Mark 2: 23-28 Have you dealt with a season in life when others acted as if you could do nothing right?

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 17, 2018

Sometimes we are so busy we simply do not find the time to slow down, pause, or stop long enough to rest and listen to God. Yet, since time began, God has offered us all the opportunity to rest.
