1 – Does the Lord have a special day? Revelation 1:10
Yes, this day is called the ‘Lord’s day’ and it is different from every other day of the week.
2 – Which day is the Lord’s day? Mark 2:27-28
The Sabbath day. Jesus calls Himself the “Lord of the Sabbath” (vs.28). The Sabbath is “made for man” (vs.27) which means that it is for all mankind; not just the Jews.
3 – When is the Sabbath? Exodus 20:8-11
The Sabbath is the seventh day of the week, which is Saturday. There are over 104 languages in the world whose name for the seventh day is “Sabbath”.
Note: A biblical day runs from sunset to sunset, not midnight to midnight (Genesis 1:5, 8, 13, 19, 23). Therefore Sabbath is Friday evening till Saturday evening.
4 – When was the Sabbath given? Genesis 2:1-3
After Jesus had finished His work of creation (Colossians 1:15-16), He rested on the seventh day, blessed it and made it holy.
5 – Did Jesus keep the Sabbath? Luke 4:16
Yes. It was His custom to go to the synagogue (church) each Sabbath.
6 – Has the Sabbath changed? Acts 13:14, 42-44
There is an abundance of evidence in the New Testament that the followers of Jesus kept the seventh-day Sabbath after Jesus’ death (Luke 23:56). Just like Jesus, the apostle Paul’s custom was to worship on the Sabbath day, even when there was no synagogue around (Acts 16:13, also Acts 17:2 & 18:4). Jesus clearly expected His followers to keep the Sabbath long after His death (Matt 24:20).
7 – Will we keep the Sabbath in heaven? Isaiah 66:22-23
Even when God creates a new heaven and earth, we will worship Him on His special day, the Sabbath.
Are you willing to remember the Sabbath and keep it holy?
