There is a subject in the present day which demands the serious attention of all professing Christians. That subject is the Christian Sabbath, or Lord’s Day. It is a subject which is forced upon our notice. The minds of many are agitated by questions arising out of it. “Is the observance of a Sabbath binding on Christians? Have we any right to tell a man that to do his business or seek his pleasure on a Sunday is a sin? Is it desirable to open places of public amusement on the Lord’s Day?” All these are questions that are continually asked. They are questions to which we ought to be able to give a decided answer.
In our day, the question of the Sabbath is one which is either hotly debated or simply ignored. What are we to think about the Sabbath, the fourth commandment as it pertains to New Testament Christians? I believe it is of utmost importance that every professing Christian understand what God's infallible Word teaches concerning this day. J.C. Ryle wrote about this subject in his day as it was an issue even then. Can we rightly say, "There is nothing new under the sun."?
Ryle addresses the matter of the Sabbath Day under the following headings:
- The Authority of the Sabbath
- The Purpose of the Sabbath
- How it Should be Kept
- Ways in Which it is Profaned
- A Final Appeal
