Thirdly. There is this Lesson in the Fear of God, which every one may learn, as soon as 'tis possible; The Lord's Day must be kept Holy to the Lord; the Sabbaths of the Lord must be the Lord's. Our Children themselves, can't but soon perceive, that we distinguish One Day in Seven for the peculiar Service of God. When the Passover was instituted, it was then supposed; It shall come to pass, Your Children shall say to you, What mean you by this Service? On the Institution of the Lord's Day, we may soon inform our Children, What we mean by the Service. Even these, and they who cannot Comprehend any more than these, may be informed; The Glorious God having Made the World is Six Day, & Rested on the Seventh, He has allowed us to Work in the world Six Days, but Commanded us to Rest from doing so, that ⟨p. 14⟩we be Wholly for Him on the Seventh. And our Saviour JESUS, Rising from the Dead, on this Day, we ought this Day to Remember, that He now appeared our Victorious Redeemer. By spending this Day in Communion with God, we prepare for the Rest which remains for His People, at the Resurrection of the Dead; but if we Misspend this Day, we deserve to fall short of Entering into the Rest of God. —The Lesson is quickly learnt; Lev. XIX. 30. Ye shall keep My Sabbaths, and reverence My Sanctuary.
