Permanence of the Sabbath:

1) The Sabbath Commandment was not intended by God only for the Jews. 1

2) The Sabbath is to act as a perpetual sign between God and His people throughout time. 1

3) The Sabbath will be kept in Heaven and in the New Earth. 1

4) Christ kept the Sabbath. 1, 2

5) Christ's Apostles kept the Sabbath. 1, 2

6) Early Christians kept the Sabbath. 1, 2, 3

7) God's grace does not relieve a Christian of the duty to obey God's Moral Law. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

9) Sabbath-keeping is not "legalism"; it is not a denial of grace. 1, 2, 3, 4

10) The Sabbath Commandment is actually mentioned repeatedly in the New Testament. 1, 2

11) If the Sabbath was not "nailed to the cross," and if Christians still must obey God, and if Law-keeping, particularly Sabbath-keeping, is not "legalism," then God still does expect His people to obey His entire Moral Law, including the Sabbath Commandment. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

12) We know that the seventh-day Sabbath of the Fourth Commandment has been, and remains, Saturday. 1

13) The seventh-day (Saturday) Sabbath of the Fourth Commandment remains one of God's eternal moral expectations.
