1. When was the Sabbath made? Genesis 2:2-3.

Answer: On the day of creation week.

2. Who was the Sabbath made for? Mark 2:27-28.

Answer: .


The Seventh-day Sabbath was made for all mankind, and it is not limited to any one race of people. It was made holy and consecrated by our Creator at the end of creation week. This was done before sin entered the world through Adam and Eve’s fall. The Sabbath was made holy by God many centuries before Abraham (from whom the ‘Jews’ came) existed. So those who teach that the seventh-day Sabbath was intended for the Jews only, simply do not understand the Scriptures or the intent of God! The Sabbath was ‘made for MAN’. God is not the Creator of the Jewish race only, but of all mankind! The Sabbath is the sign that He is the Creator of all.

3. According to John 1:1-3, who was it that MADE all things?

Answer: .


The Sabbath is a memorial of both creation and redemption. Since we read in Mark 2:27-28 that the ‘Sabbath was MADE for man,’ and the verse we just read says that the ‘Word’ (Jesus) made all things, we can safely conclude that JESUS MADE THE SABBATH!

4. Why is God worthy of our worship? Revelation 4:11.

Answer: Because He all .


The Sabbath is the memorial of His creative work.

5. Revelation 14:7 records a message that is to go to all the world in the last days of earth’s history. Who are we commanded to worship in this text?

Answer: Worship Him that heaven and earth.


Some teach that Jesus’ death on Calvary's cross abolished the reason for the seventh-day Sabbath observance. But Calvary did not change the fact that in ‘six days the LORD (Yahweh in Hebrew) made the heavens and the earth’! Even in the book of Revelation we are told to worship Him that created all things. The language found in Revelation 14:7 is very similar to the language found in Exodus 20:11, the fourth commandment! We are still to worship the Creator and the Sabbath is the sign that He IS the CREATOR.

6. Why did the Lord make the Sabbath? Exodus 20:8-11.

Fill in: (Verse 11): "For in days, the Lord heaven and earth, the and all that in them is."


It is impossible to worship the God of heaven as Creator if we willingly fail to observe the seventh-day Sabbath! The reason for this is because the Sabbath was given to mankind so that they would remember their Creator. Claiming to worship the Creator and yet breaking the seventh-day Sabbath command would be like saying you love America while trampling on the American flag! The Sabbath is God’s memorial of creation!  Some people call Sunday, the first day of the week, the ‘sabbath,’ but Sunday is never referred to as the Sabbath in the Bible!  The only day God blessed and gave as a memorial of His creative and saving work is the seventh-day Sabbath, the day we call Saturday!

7.  in the ‘New Earth’ that will be created after this present earth is destroyed, what day will everyone worship on?  Isaiah 66:22-23.

Answer: The day.


If we will be keeping it forever in the new earth, does it not stand to reason that it has not been abolished now?

8. Jesus went to worship services on what day? Luke 4:16.

Answer: On the day.

9. Did the early Christians living after Jesus’ death and resurrection observe the Sabbath? Acts 16:13.

Answer: .

10. In Acts 13:42-45, after the Jews had left the synagogue, the Gentiles wanted to hear Paul preach some more. When did Paul tell them to come back for more preaching and worship services?

Answer: The day.


According to these verses, the Jews had ‘gone out of the synagogue.’ (KJV) They left. If Paul was a Sunday keeper as some say, it would have been the perfect opportunity for Paul to invite these Gentiles who were pleading with him to preach some more, to come back the next day for Sunday service! But he didn’t tell them that, because Paul held no Sunday services! It says that the NEXT SABBATH DAY the whole town came back for preaching and worship services! There is not a single verse of Scripture that commands anyone to keep Sunday holy! But there are literally scores of verses commanding us to observe the seventh-day Sabbath!

11. Did those who loved and followed Jesus observe the Sabbath even after His death? Luke 23:50-56.

Answer: .


From this text of Scripture, it is plain that these women who loved and followed Jesus and who knew what He taught, kept the seventh-day Sabbath carefully, not even anointing their Master’s dead body on the Sabbath day! Surely they would have obeyed Jesus if He taught that after His death they did not need to keep the seventh-day Sabbath as some teach today!

12. What does Ezekiel 20:12 tell us the Sabbath is?

Answer: It is a between us and the . It shows that we recognize God as the One who us!


It is plain that the Sabbath is a sign of true sanctification, as the only way we can be sanctified is through the righteousness of Christ. The writer of Hebrews says the Sabbath is a sign of our resting by faith in Christ’s finished work. Hebrews 4:1-4 & 9-10. Joy in keeping His commandments of love, including the fourth, is the fruit of this faith. Revelation 14:12. In Christ, we are all new creatures! 2 Corinthians 5:17. Thus, the Sabbath is a sign of the Creator’s re-creation of the human heart at conversion!

13. In order to be a commandment keeping person, how many of the Ten Commandments must I be keeping? James 2:10-12.

Answer: .


James wrote this epistle in approximately 50 A.D., some nineteen years after Jesus’ death, resurrection, and ascension. He still believed that the Ten Commandments were binding upon all men! Notice also that we will be “judged” by the Ten Commandments! James called them the “law of liberty,” and not a "yoke of bondage" as the false teachers claim the Ten Commandments are. It is the lawbreaker who goes to prison and is put in bondage, not the law keeper! Also, we must observe all ten of the commandments. Nine tenths of obedience is not obedience at all!

14. Were there other “ceremonial” sabbaths that were not part of the Ten Commandments? Leviticus 23:24-32 and 37.

Answer: .

15. Were there to be sacrificial offerings made on these ceremonial sabbaths? Verse 37.

Answer: .


On these ceremonial “sabbaths” sacrifices were offered for sins. When Jesus died on the cross, the temple curtain was ripped from top to bottom by an angel's hand to show that in heaven's sight, earthly sacrifices were to cease. Jesus, the true "Lamb of God" had died on the cross! See Matthew 27:51 at this time.

After Jesus’ death, all the ceremonial sabbaths and laws that pertained to sacrifice and offerings came to an end. It is these ceremonial sabbaths that were a “shadow” of the cross, and hence are now done away with!

In Leviticus 23:37-38, it makes very plain the distinction between the ceremonial sabbaths and the “Sabbaths of the Lord.” The seventh-day Sabbath existed before sin entered the world. The seventh-day Sabbath is not a “shadow” of the cross! The seventh-day Sabbath was a memorial of creation and will be observed even in the new earth as we have already learned. Be careful that no one deceives you on this point! Some take verses such as Colossians 2 and “twist” the meaning to excuse their Sabbath breaking!

16. Did Peter warn us about those who would take Paul’s writings about the law and “twist” them to their own destruction? 2 Peter 3:15-17.

Answer: .


The only way that the seventh-day Sabbath could be done away with is that another God more powerful than Yahweh would have to come along, destroy the entire universe, create a new one, and give another day in memorial of his creation! But friends, there is no other God! As long as the universe exists the seventh-day Sabbath will be observed!

17. What did Daniel say the false religious power known as the “Little Horn” would try to do? Daniel 7:25.

Answer: Seek to and .


This is exactly how Sunday, the holy day of ancient sun worship, came into the Christian religion! We will learn more about this in a future lesson!

18. What does Romans 6:16 tell us?

Answer: The one we is the one we are a of.


If the devil can succeed in causing you to habitually break one of God’s commandments, he knows that you will become his slave! This is why he went to great lengths to cause Adam and Eve to disobey God in one point. By doing that, they became “guilty of all” and the devil’s slaves! This is why the devil is angry at those who keep God’s commandments! See Revelation 12:17. The “remnant” church serves Yahweh and obeys His commandments, and not Satan’s!

19. Today, are you willing to make a decision to keep the seventh-day Sabbath (Saturday) and all of the Ten Commandments, the sign of righteousness by faith?
