#6 Christ In The Sabbath

Read for this week's study: Exod. 20:8-11; Heb. 4:1-11

Memory text: "For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea. and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it" (Exodus 20:11).

Key thought:

The Lord gradually unfolded the full meaning of the Sabbath during the centuries before the cross. It is best understood in the light of Calvary.

The Lessons:

• Sabbath 8/3 - God created the Universe

• Monday 8/5 - The Sabbath at Sinai
• Tuesday 8/6 - The Exodus and the Sabbath
