For what purpose are we to remember the Sabbath day?
Answer
"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." Verse 8.
NOTE-All through the week we are to "remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." This means
that all our plans are to be laid and all our business adjusted with reference to the Sabbath, the object of
which is to help us to keep in mind the truth that God is the creator of all things. This is just as essential to
spiritual growth during the six working days as upon the Sabbath itself. We are to remember that day, also,
that when it comes we may not be tempted by circumstances of our own creating to treat it, or any part of
it, as secular, or common time. Thus the Sabbath commandment is to be obeyed every day, though the
Sabbath itself can be kept, or observed, only upon the seventh day, for "the seventh day is the Sabbath!'
