HOW TO OBSERVE THE SABBATH - Raymond C Cole - June 1951

Raymond C Cole

Here are the answers to your most perplexing questions! Should we prepare meals on the Sabbath? Is it a violation of God's law to travel, to care for live-stock, or to harvest crops on the Seventh Day? Does God require us to attend Church? Or, again, is it a transgression of God's law to seek our own pleasure on that day? FIRST, what purpose did God have in creating the Sabbath! Was it for the benefit of all mankind? Or, was it made for one small nation, Israel, only? Christ has given the answer by saying that the Sabbath was made for MAN. It was intended for the good of all mankind. And rightly so, for the law explicitly tells us that it is a day of rest - a day on which we cease from all our labors, and worship God. It is a holy convocation, commanded to be observed throughout all generations, forever! - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
