Yep, We are living on a fallen planet. Paul is correct!
But alas, there is hope. Jesus came to kill the disease that killed us all. SIN...now we can have life, His life when we come to him and ask for it. His resurrection enabled him to give us this life. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Pauls' music is filled with testament to this fact. Good stuff.
Thanks paul

Paul's article is right on. The only change I'd make would be to say that we're supposed to do more than just give our workers a day off, we're supposed to make that time holy. The sabbath is the last thing God created and the first thing that He called holy.

i know that we should keep the Sabbath Holy, but am not exactly sure what tht means in practice. I mean, i go to Church on Sunday and then afterwards i usually try not to study that day and have lunch and fellowship with church friends, but what about afterwards? is it OK to buy a newspaper or a bar of chocolate on a Sunday? what about going to have a drink and a Sunday roast at the local carvery? Aren't tho se things, after all, supporting Sunday trading, which means that the shop-keepers, assisstants, publicans etc have to work that day? Where do we draw the line? it seems that there i sno clear list of Do's and Don'ts for Christian Sabbath. i want to please God without being legalistic. Am confused.

The opinions expressed in the Reader Comments are not necessarily those held by Cross Rhythms.
Knowing Paul as well as I do, I can hear him speaking the words he has written. He has an incisive and thoughtful mind and is able to relate across the generations. A good article to read when there is so much celebration of Darwinism.
