70 The Ten Commandments
also "coveting" time that does not belong to you, but to
God, and are therefore breaking the tenth commandment
also! You are certainly putting something ahead of the
true God, and are therefore reckoned as GUILTY of breaking
the first commandment! You are breaking the fifth
commandment as well, for you are dishonoring and disobeying
your spiritual Father in heaven!
And regardless of the silly and often contradictory
arguments of carnal minded men, you are BREAKING the
fourth commandment - the "test" commandment ­
which God has set as an identifying SIGN between Him and
His people forever - which points to Him as the Creator
and Ruler of all, and which keeps those who obey this
God-given "sign" in a right relationship with the true GOD!
In this materialistic age of "modernism" and religious
confusion, of increasing crime and violence, and of constant
threat of war and human annihilation, we need
more than at any other time in human history to OBEY the
fourth commandment of Almighty God! We need to keep
holy and sacred the seventh day that God made holy.
More than people of any other age, we desperately need
this sanctified TIME in which to, as was suggested, "reevaluate
the meaning of life."
The seventh day and that day alone which God made
holy is the commanded and God-blessed time for rest, for
worship and for contemplation of the vital keys to the
MEANING of life.
If you have any doubt whatsoever about which day
the Sabbath should be observed on, write for our free, fully
illustrated booklet Which Day Is the Christian Sabbath?
Properly understood and properly observed, the
fourth commandment - God's Holy Sabbath - is one of
the greatest BLESSINGS that the Creator has ever bestowed
upon the children of men! It is an identifying SIGN
between man and the true God. Remember it - keep it
holy!
