1. Bible Topic
a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.
2. Sabbath Observance
a) For what purpose are we to remember the Sabbath day? It's in the Bible, Exodus 20:8, NIV. "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy."
b) When according to the Scripture does the Sabbath begin and end? It's in the Bible, Leviticus 23:32, RSV. "From evening to evening shall you keep your Sabbath."
c) When does evening begin? It's in the Bible, Mark 1:32, RSV. "That evening, at sundown, they brought to Him all who were sick or possessed with demons."
d) Work is not to be done on the Sabbath. It's in the Bible, Exodus 20:9-10, NIV. "Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates."
e) What Sabbath keeping counsel does Isaiah give? It's in the Bible, Isaiah 58:13-14, TLB. "If you keep the Sabbath holy, not having your own fun and business on that day, but enjoying the Sabbath and speaking of it with delight as the Lord's holy day, and honoring the Lord in what you do, not following your own desires and pleasure, nor talking idly—then the Lord will be your delight, and I will see to it that you ride high, and get your full share of the blessings I promised to Jacob, your father. The Lord has spoken."
