The Bible gives us the spiritual principles to guide us in how to observe God’s holy Sabbath day. Like the Pharisees of Jesus’ day, people are tempted to add to the Bible by making up a long legalistic list of do’s and don’ts and imposing it on others. This message focuses on two major errors. One is not understanding the meaning of “rest” in regard to the Sabbath. The other is the temptation to consume the 24 hours with lots of “permissible” physical activities.
