Remember the Lord's Day

by Peter Masters

Why was the sabbath day instituted by the Lord, and does it continue now as the Lord's Day? If so, in what way has it changed with the coming of Christ? How should it be kept? Is it true there was a conflict of views about the continuation of sabbath between the early and later Reformers? This booklet responds to these and other questions, showing that the sabbath principle is still God's will for believers today, and listing its purposes and blessings.

Reviews

[Rebeca Silva]

A book that clearly talks about the importance of the Lord's Day, and how many people forget and ignore the importance and value of it.

[Alan Rennê]

Livreto extraordinário a respeito do dia do Senhor, o domingo. O autor argumenta de forma brilhante a favor do domingo como o sábado cristão, estabelecido na criação, expresso na lei moral e governado pelo Senhor Jesus Cristo, o Senhor do sábado. Peter Masters também critica de forma hábil os argumentos que afirmam ser o sábado algo apenas cerimonial. Importante também é o tópico no qual ele aborda a distinção entre o sábado judaico (da aliança mosaica) e o domingo, mostrando a flexibilidade deste. O livreto também possui 4 excelentes apêndices. Destaque para os dois primeiros, que discutem a posição do reformador João Calvino. Masters elucida toda a questão mostrando que Calvino era, sim, favorável à visão de que o domingo é o dia do Senhor, que deve ser observado pela igreja cristã. O excerto dos sermões de Calvino em Deuteronômio 5.12-14 é excepcional!

Recomendo fortemente a leitura deste livreto!
