Concord Matters from KFUO Radio The Large Catechism: 3rd Commandment, Part 1
Luther reminds us that people must have a holiday, that is, to “cease from labor.” Yet, while the Sabbath is meant for rest, it is not just rest from work, but rest in Christ. The Sabbath is to be made holy by occupation with holy words, works, and life. This Sabbath is not restricted to a particular day or time but is grounded in Christ who is the Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8).
Rev. John Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Missions at Concordia Theological Seminary, Ft. Wayne, IN, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the 3rd commandment.
