Perspectives on the Sabbath: Four Views

Perspectives on the Sabbath: Four Views

Christopher John Donato
4/5 ( ratings)
Perspectives on the Sabbath presents in point-counterpoint form the four most common views of the Sabbath commandment that have arisen throughout church history, representing the major positions held among Christians today. Skip MacCarty defends the Seventh-day view which argues the fourth commandment is a moral law of God requiring us to keep the seventh day holy. It must therefore remain the day of rest and worship for Christians.

Jospeh A Pipa backs the Christian Sabbath view which reasons that ever since the resurrection of Christ, the one day in seven to be kept holy is the first day of the week.

Craig L. Blomberg supports the Fulfillment view which says that since Christ has brought the true Sabbath rest into the present, the Sabbath commands of the Old Testament are no longer binding on believers.

Charles P. Arand upholds the Lutheran view that the Sabbath commandment was given to Jews alone and does not concern Christians. Rest and worship are still required but not tied to a particular day.
