How do you observe Sabbath? This article is challenging in a very good way.
Why Christians Should Be Sabbatarians
www.thegospelcoalition.org
For Christians, weekly Sabbath observance remains. This is not legalism, but gratitude toward the God who allows us rest.Once you put any other authority over scripture you can be sure that authority will lead away from what scripture teaches!
"Unless I am convinces by Scripture and plain reason, and not by popes and councils, which have so often contradicted themselves, my conscience is captive to the Word of God. To go against conscience is neither right nor safe. I cannot, and I will not recant. Here I stand, I can do no other. God help me." - Martin Luther
"The absence of spiritual devotion today is an omen and a portent. The modern church is all but contemptuous of the sober virtues--meekness, modesty, humility, quietness, obedience, self-effacement, patience. To be accepted now, religion must be in the popular mood. Consequently, much religious activity reeks with pride, display, self-assertion, self-promotion, love of gain and devotion to trivial pleasures.
It behooves us to take all this seriously. Time is running out for all of us. What is done must be done quickly. We have no right to lie idly by and let things take their course. A farmer who neglects his farm will soon lose it; a shepherd who fails to look after his flock will find the wolves looking after it for him. A misbegotten charity that allows the wolves to destroy the flock is not charity at all but indifference, rather, and should be known for what it is and dealt with accordingly.
It is time for Bible-believing Christians to begin to cultivate the sober graces and to live among men like sons of God and heirs of the ages. And this will take more than a bit of doing, for the whole world and a large part of the church is set to prevent it. But if God be for us, who can be against us?"
