Of what else does God say He gave the Sabbath to His people to be a sign, or reminder?
Answer
"Moreover also I gave them My Sabbaths, to be a sign between Me and them, that they might know that I
am the Lord that sanctify them." Eze. 20:12.
NOTE-Sanctification is a work of redemption-of making holy sinful or unholy beings. Like the
work of creation itself, this requires creative power. See Ps. 51:10; John 3:3,6; Eph. 2:10. And as the
Sabbath is the appropriate sign or memorial of the creative power of. God wherever displayed, whether in
creation, deliverance from human bondage, or deliverance from the slavery of sin, it is to be kept as a sign
of the work of sanctification. This will be one great reason for the saints' keeping it throughout eternity, It
will remind them not only of their own creation and the creation of the universe, but also of their
redemption.
