As Old as the World

Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. Genesis 2:1-3

“The Sabbath and its observance [are] more ancient and widespread, even as old as the world itself. … Well may this institution demand our reverence: it was ordained by no human authority, and rests upon no human traditions; it was established by the Ancient of days, and commanded by his eternal word.”

—The Great Controversy, p. 454

Sabbath Tip
The Sabbath commandment, which was established in Eden and written in stone by God’s own finger, is part of His eternal word. If someone asked why you keep the seventh day holy, which verses would you use to support your belief? This Sabbath, write out a few of these verses and memorize them.
