C.W. Grafton on the Design of the Christian Sabbath

R. Andrew Myers

What does the Sabbath mean? What is its design? Our great interest is in keeping the Sabbath day; but before we can properly keep this day we must understand its design. It is difficult to give a short definition of the design of the Sabbath. Let us put it this way: It was designed to be a picture of what man lost by sin and what he regains in heaven.” — C.W. Grafton, “The Meaning of the Sabbath” in “Bible Ethics: Three Addresses” from Elements of Truth: Addresses Delivered at Synod’s Training School, June 16 to 26, 1914 (1914)
