The Gift of the Sabbath

 (ID: 2098)

As believers, we should seek to obey God’s command to keep the Sabbath holy. Doing so, however, raises important practical concerns. Outlining principles that can guide us, Alistair Begg helps us determine how to apply the Bible’s teaching on the Sabbath in our lives today. In the end, he reminds us, the Sabbath is not about keeping an exact list of rules but about the delight of knowing, loving, and prioritizing God.
