8 Biblical Truths on the Sabbath
August 18th, 2009 | Posted in articles |1. The Sabbath is Saturday
The Bible is very clear on this: Saturday is the Sabbath. God explicitly labels it as such. Exodus 20:8-10, “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns.”
2. The Sabbath Cannot Be Changed to Sunday or Any Other Day
Some will argue that the Sabbath has now been changed to Sunday. But this is not the case. First, one cannot find a single passage in the Bible that says this. Second, God’s choice of the 7th day was not arbitrary. It was chosen for a very specific reason. Namely, to commemorate his work in creation. Exodus 20:11, “For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.”
