LET no man therefore judge you in meat or in drink, or in respect of an
holy day, or of the new moon, or of the *Sabbath day* which are a
*shadow* of things to come; but the *body is Christ’s*.
_Colossians 2:16-17, R.V._
*God forbids worldly pleasure on His Day.*
IF thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on
my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the Lord,
honourable; and shalt honour him, *not doing thine own ways*, nor
finding *thine own pleasure*, nor speaking thine own words:
Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord; and I will cause thee to
ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage
of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
_Isaiah 58:13-14._
*Commands divine worship.*
LIKEWISE the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate
be for the Lord *in the sabbaths and in the new moons*.
_Ezekiel 46:3_
*Required His word to be read.*
FOR they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew
him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are *read every
sabbath day*, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
_Acts 13:27._
*The Lords Supper to be observed.*
AND upon the *first day of the week*, when the disciples came together
to *break bread, Paul preached unto them*, ready to depart on the
morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
_Acts 20:7._
-—Carefully abstain from all but spiritual conversation “not speaking
thine own words.”
Strive to be “in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day," "not doing thine own
ways."
Do no work on the Sabbath Day that is not necessary.
"Have at least a Sabbath hour in every day as well as a Sabbath day in
every week.”
Salvation.
*To WHOM offered? “Whosoever will!”*
Notice the different classes to whom *salvation is offered*.
*1st To the WEARY AND HEAVY- LADEN.*
COME unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, *and I will give
you rest*. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and
lowly in heart: *and ye shall find rest unto your souls, For my yoke is
easy*, and *my burden is light*.
_Matthew 11:28-30._
*2nd. To the HUNGRY and thirsty.*
*HO, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters*, and he that hath
no money: come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, *buy wine and milk without
money* and without price.
_Isaiah 55:1._
*3rd. To sinners.*
BUT God commendeth his love toward us, in that, *while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us*.
_Romans 5:8._
