There can be no doubt that a seismic shift has taken place within the English-speaking world over the last sixty years regarding what used to be referred to as 'the Christian Sabbath.' What was considered to be a day of rest, worship and holy activity is now just like any other day of the week -- one for the shopping mall, the sports stadium, or for some selfindulgent 'me-time.' What has led to this transformation? Or, more importantly, how ought we to think of the first day of the week? Were our forefathers correct in their understanding of 'the Lord's Day' or 'the Christian Sabbath'? And what did the Lord Jesus Christ mean when he said that 'the Sabbath was made for man' and that he was 'Lord of the Sabbath'? Terry Johnson investigates these questions and the issues raised by them. He draws out the teaching of Scripture and illustrates it from the writings of many of the great teachers of the Christian church. He then sets out practical recommendations to help today's Christians experience the benefits and blessings of the special day God has given us.

What does the Sabbath mean to you? Christ in the Sabbath will take you on a “Sabbath tour” of the Bible. You’ll explore the themes of Shabbat (Hebrew for Sabbath) and rest in both Old and New Testament and then discover what it has meant to Jews and Christians for centuries. Rabbinical comments and a variety of traditions provide clarity and credibility to the study of Sabbath. While this volume does not resolve all the differences among Christians concerning the place of the Sabbath today, the journey undertaken in this book will help you in forming your own conclusions—or inspire you to continue exploring the meaning and significance behind the Sabbath.
