Should Christians keep the Sabbath? Many today believe that we should. However, it is often said that the Sabbath was repealed or changed in the New Testament. What does the New Testament actually teach about Sabbath observance? David Wilber takes readers back to the Scriptures to discover the answer to this question. In this book, you will learn what the New Testament says about this sacred day of rest and why it matters to Christians.

Excellent. This book is well-written, well-documented, and well-worth your time. If you are unsure what the Sabbath means in your life as a Christian, or if you never really bothered to study what the Bible actually says about the Sabbath, this is a must read. I honestly can't think of a reason you wouldn't observe the Sabbath after reading this book, except perhaps that you place no value whatsoever on the truths of the Bible.
Never saw the reason for Sunday Sabbath. Since I was young it has been a curiosity as I've never read anything in my Bible that would even suggest to Christians to switch the Sabbath to another day. It's actually easier to celebrate it from sundown to sundown. Good book.
Once again, this offering from Wilber is lacking on every level. From his selective and conspiratorial approach to church history to his rampant isogenesis, this book misses the mark at every turn.
