The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In "More Sabbath Controversies (Part 1)", Steve Gregg examines the events that occurred on the Sabbath in the book of Matthew. He argues that while Sabbath keeping is one of the Ten Commandments, it is not linked to a moral issue like the other commandments. Jesus healed a man on the Sabbath and when questioned by the Pharisees about it, Jesus highlighted their hard-heartedness and misrepresentation of God's character. Gregg emphasizes the importance of prayer and worship as sacred activities that can be done any day of the week unto the Lord.
