The CHRISTIAN SABBATH : Sabbath is from a Hebrew word meaning rest. Goi fihlshed His work of creation in 6 days and rested the 7th (Genesis 2:2). God commanded Israel, "Remembe the sabbath day to keep it holy." Neitner Israel, their,: ti servants, uiw . PsSfe, 'within their gates were allowed to fl,.- - v work on the 7th day (Exodus 20:8-10); 3- i'J This law ''because 7th month 39) and the Dennis Mom - Mtniitar WCIB tllllUIlg bllCSC UUU MUlltUCU an end to the sabbath law when "I will cause the sun ta go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day" (Amos 8:4-9). This prophesy was fulfilled with Christ on the cross (Luke 23:44-45). . Christ kept the sabbath because he was a Jew and lived under the law. The apostles went into the. syna-. gogues on the sabbath, after the cross, to preach Christ," and not to keep the sabbath (Acts 9:20, 13:14-37, 14:1-7, 17:1-4, 18:1-6, etc.). Paul met with Christians "upon the first day of the week" to remember Christ's death: (Acts 20-7, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)! ,-' . ,.: ..-;r ; Christ fulfilled the 10 commandment law, given at Mt. Sinai, "and nailed it to His cross" (Colossians 2:12-17, Galatlons 3). We are as free from that law (including the sabbath) as a woman is from her dead husband (Romans 7:l-7) , - - God entered intoIis rest when His works were FIN ISHED. We (Christians) shall enter into God's rest' when WE have finished our God given works. "There REMAINETH therefore a rest to the people of God For he that is entered into his rest, he ALSO HATH CEASED from his own works, as GOD did from His ' Let us LABOR therefore to enter into that rest (Hebrews 4:9-11). The Christian sabbath (rest) is eternal life, of which the sabbath of Israel was only a type. ,-, A WELCOME AND THE GOSPEL IN SERMON AND SONG AWAIT YOU AT THE WEST MAIN CHURCH OF CHRIST 1701 Waat Main Dennii L Mon, mmjiter SERVICtS EACH LORD'S DAY ' Bible Clataea , 9.45 t m Wonhlp ........10:4S a.m. 1 7:30 p!m!
