A Brief Summary Of The First-Day Sabbath: God Changed the Day of Worship to the Lord's Day by Greg Price, Jonathan Edwards, Dr. Steven Dilday, Dr. F.N. Lee, David Dickson, Greg Barrow and Others (Free MP3s, Books, Etc.)

1. IGNATIUS (30-107 a.d.) Those who have come to the possession of new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath, but living in the observance of THE LORD'S DAY, on which also our life has sprung up again, by him and by his death (Ignatius, Epistle To The Magnesians, Ch. IX, emphases added). Ignatius was appointed to be the bishop of Antioch about 69 a.d. This epistle was most likely written 98-107 a.d. He was noted to be a disciple of the Apostle John. Ignatius describes the shift from observing the Jewish Sabbath to observing the Christian Lord's Day. - A Brief Summary Of The First-Day Sabbath: God Changed the Day of Worship to the Lord's Day, by Greg Price

The Perpetuity And Change Of The Sabbath (3 Free MP3s, Scroll Down To These Free MP3s), by Jonathan Edwards

The Sabbath is the Lord's day, of which no person or nation can rob him with impunity. 2 Chron. 36:21; Neh. 13:18. It has ever been a sign between the Lord and his people. Ex. 31:13. Since its first institution the Sabbath has been the Lord's (katapausis) rest, before it can be that of a believer. Heb. 4:1. To the people of God there still remains, after the abrogation of the Mosaic economy (Sabbatismos) the keeping of a Sabbath-to be a weekly memorial of the works of creation and redemption as taught in Heb. 4:9,10. This Sabbatismos is to them a lively emblem, a sure pledge, and real antepast of their (katapausis) everlasting rest. - David Steele

THE FOURTH COMMANDMENT (THE LORD'S DAY OR CHRISTIAN SABBATH) by Jonathan Edwards, Greg Price, Dr. Francis N. Lee, David Dickson and Greg Barrow (15 Free MP3s, with many free text articles from A Puritan's Mind)

As it is of the law of nature, that, in general, a due proportion of time be set apart for the worship of God; so, in his Word, by a positive, moral, and perpetual commandment, binding all men in all ages, he hath particularly appointed one day in seven for a Sabbath, to be kept holy unto him: which, from the beginning of the world to the resurrection of Christ, was the last day of the week; and, from the resurrection of Christ, was changed into the first day of the week, which in Scripture is called the Lord's Day, and is to be continued to the end of the world as the Christian Sabbath. - Westminster Confession Of Faith 21:7, "Of Religious Worship, and the Sabbath Day" (emphases added) on the Puritan Hard Drive

What Is the Real Meaning of Christmas

The regulative principle of worship has clear implications for those who want to promote the celebration of Christmas. The Regulative Principle forces those who celebrate Christmas to prove from Scripture that God has authorized the celebrating of such a day. This, in fact, is impossible. - From the free online book The Regulative Principle of Worship and Christmas, by Brian Schwertley.

Jim Dodson Reviews and Recommends the Puritan Hard Drive

If you love the Bible, then you may well be Reformed. If you think of yourself as Reformed, but you have seldom or have never read older Reformed literature, prepare to be challenged. The Puritan Hard Drive provides primary sources and depth of theological and spiritual insight which is lacking in much of what is passed off as genuine Reformed theology. If you think of yourself as conservative, the older Puritan and Reformed authors will help you sort reality from myth in your quest to be truly Reformed. There are more solid resources for less money here than anywhere else. I highly recommend you take responsibility for your soul and spend a few shekels for this cup of cold water in the midst of the modern religious desert.
