How to Celebrate the Sabbath

UCG has an excellent booklet on the subject of the Fourth Commandment. It proves that the seventh day of the week is still holy and God still commands us to observe it. However, after reading it, people often still have questions about how to best celebrate it. People also have questions about controversial scriptures. This sermon addresses many of the common questions and stresses the importance of joyful celebration of the Sabbath.
