Rev. Paul Cain, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Sheridan, Wyoming, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 31. If the church is Israel, why don’t Christians observe the Sabbath? It’s the worship practice “above all” others, for all “generations, as a covenant forever.” This is how Exodus 31 concludes God’s explanation of Israel’s worship, even prescribing the death penalty for its violation. Yet the Sabbath is not about a day, but about life. Just as the sons of Judah and Dan would use their craftsmanship for both pious and idolatrous ends, so is our use of play and free time. Ultimately the church observes the Sabbath in the fulfillment of Christ, who gives true rest and “refreshment” through His Word.
