Sermon Scripture: Deuteronomy 5:12-15
The Bible gives us 2 versions of the 1st Commandment on the Sabbath. At Sinai, Sabbath is about rhythm, In Deuteronomy, it’s about resistance.
We work more than ever before, we have more than ever before, and we’re still not happy. It’s Egypt all over again and it’s so easy to just get sucked into the culture. To feel like you just have to work those extra hours to get ahead. It’s so easy to just say, “Well, this is just how it is now.” But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Sabbath is a way to break our addiction to the twin gods of the west; accomplishment and accumulation.
