Keep the Sabbath day holy

Jeremiah 17:19-27

This is what the Lord said to me: “Go and stand at the Gate of the People, through which the kings of Judah go in and out; stand also at all the other gates of Jerusalem. Say to them, ‘Hear the word of the Lord, you kings of Judah and all people of Judah and everyone living in Jerusalem who come through these gates. This is what the Lord says: Be careful not to carry a load on the Sabbath day or bring it through the gates of Jerusalem.  Do not bring a load out of your houses or do any work on the Sabbath, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I commanded your ancestors.

But if you do not obey me to keep the Sabbath day holy by not carrying any load as you come through the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle an unquenchable fire in the gates of Jerusalem that will consume her fortresses.

Why?

Following the way of the Sabbath day is an essential behavior to honor the Holy Name of the Lord. 

Going to church on Sunday to worship the Lord today is the same meaning to honor the Lord for our hearts put what in the first priority God knows it.

The businessmen are uneasy to keep the way on Sunday to worship the Lord. Because our hearts focus on this world or the Lord. Remember what we have is come from the grace of the Lord.

How?

Keep the Sabbath day holy is from our heart to love the Lord and reflect in behavior.
