Thought for the Lord's Day #23

From Ref21's blog:
Them that honour me...

Some of today's Scottish newspapers are running a story about our local school's girls' football team. Against all the odds, they beat off older teams from larger schools all over Scotland, to reach the final of a national tournament sponsored by Coca-Cola - only to discover it was scheduled to be held on a Sunday. To not a little disappointment, the decision was taken to pull out of the opportunity to win the national tournament because of the religious convictions of our community.

    Thanks for posting that, Hobs!

    Often it's been said that one's attitude toward the Sabbath is a most accurate barometer for measuring spiritual health.

    Hope you had a blessed one :-) Two highlights of mine were the baptism of a new believer and the ordination of a new elder!

    I find this post a bit hypocritical of you.

    1. No one was made to work by posting a blog post.

    2. Writing something on a blog is no different than writing on a piece of paper, which John did when commanded by our Lord in Revelation.

    3. The Sabbath is not a legalistic observance, but we are to call it a delight. The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.
