7 Points of the Sabbath Series: #4

#4

How to "keep" the Sabbath:
NO WORLDLY WORK: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work,
Exodus 20:10
NO BUYING OR SELLING: In those days saw I in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, ...which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day: and I testified against them in the day wherein they sold victuals. There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day?
Nehemiah 13:15-17
WORSHIP: And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day,
Luke 4:16
"The people of Israel had a knowledge of it before they came to Sinai. On the way thither the Sabbath was kept. When some profaned it, the Lord reproved them, saying, "How long refuse ye to keep My commandments and My laws?" Ex. 16:28."
