Memory Slection—Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Exod 20:8. Present-Day Application By Frederick D. Jordan Los Angeles, Calif. The moral law involved in the Jewish observance of the Sabbath is just as essential in the Chris tian economy. The matter of a day of cessation of work for re laxation and recuperation of one’s strength is of great importance. In our mechanical age and day of the week may have to serve as the “day of rest” for a given group of workers. This law of work and rest is a law of nature as well. Agriculturists will tell you of the importance of letting a field lie idle, of rotating crops to give the land a rest. Scientists tell us that even locomotives and other work and last longer if allowed defi nite periods of rest and cessation from strain. The Christian observ ance of Sunday must include, in addition to cessation from work, the “assembling of ourselves to gether for the praise and worship of God.” The habit of church going is closely identified with this moral law. He who willfully absents himself from church is falling short of the command io keep the day holy. The worship of God has a claim upon all fol lowers at the appointed time for worship. “Remember the Sabbath Day” means that we should make our plans in advance. Any ob servance of the day contrary to the ideal of rest, meditation ana worship may be considered un christian.
