"Remember the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy." (Exodus 20:8). Old fashioned words from a bygone era? The legalistic trappings of the Old Covenant? The one ceremonial law of the Ten Commandments that no longer has ethically binding force upon us today? Such are the things said against the doctrine of the perpetuity of the Sabbath. Yet, if we were to look back to our Protestant forefathers we would find that such an anti-sabbatarian stance is by and large an anomoly in church history. Is one day in every seven uniquely the Lord's Day? Is faithful attendance to worship at a local church each and every week a Divine mandate, and does it have any connection to Sabbath keeping? Is the Sabbath a day of legalistic bondage, or is it what the Puritans believed it was: the market day of the soul? Of the many names given to Jesus, the Mediator of the New Covenant, why did He take for Himself the title "Lord of the Sabbath"? This sermon introduces this important subject by an examination of the Apostle John's statement: "I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day." (Revelation 1:10a)
