4th Commandment

Ten CommandmentsSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the fourth commandment of the Ten Commandments, which focuses on the Sabbath. While some argue that the Sabbath was switched to Sunday in Christianity, there is no biblical authorization for this change, and it isn't necessary for Christians to observe the Sabbath on Sunday. The Sabbath is considered a moral law in the Ten Commandments, as it is a sign of God's covenant with Israel. However, Paul doesn't recognize the obligation for Christians to keep the Sabbath, and Christians don't need to follow Old Testament rituals, as they follow a New Covenant.
