The Spirit of the Sabbath

Pastor Sam begins a new series on the Spirit of the Sabbath.  In this series, we begin by examining why God gives the instructions he does. We understand that he gives good commandments because it is consistent with His good nature because what He says is who He is. Pastor then explains the spirit of the commandment to keep the Sabbath as a teaching on consecration and our ability to say no to other affairs and yes to God.  We further see that consecration through the Sabbath is a teaching tool to help us avoid idolatry. What we can't say no to replaces God's position in our hearts and drives us farther away from God. Idolatry is anything that lowers our view of God and keeps us from achieving the purpose for which God created us. Please join us in this series and share the word.
