5.49 David Schrock • Reading • “Set Apart For Worship: Ten Words about the Fourth Commandment”

ABOUT THE EPISODE The 4th Commandment instructs believers to “keep the Sabbath holy.” But now that Christians are under the New Covenant, what does that command mean for Christians? Is the 4th Commandment fully fulfilled in Christ? Or does it have continuing moral authority over our lives? David Schrock explores these questions and the glorious reality of rest with God behind the commandment.
