A Kingdom Catechism
God calls His people to seasons of rest.
Q 73: What is the fourth commandment?
A 73: The fourth commandment is, “You shall keep and observe the Sabbath Day, to keep it holy.” (Ex. 2.8; Deut. 5.12)
The Lord has reserved seasons of rest for us to be completely renewed in Him, soul and body, so that we may improve and increase in love for Him, soul and strength. The Sabbath, or the Lord’s Day, together with other appointed seasons of rest, provide crucial resting-places in our walk of faith, seasons devote to worship, meditation, resting in the Lord, and looking ahead in our walk with Him. We must especially keep the Lord’s Day holy, set apart completely for the Lord and His will, without any admixture of motives or activities that might compromise our rest in Him.
