Quotations from our authors:
"Adoration of God is made possible and more meaningful by the interruption of secular activities." - Dr. S. Bacchiocchi - adoration of God
"He is the Lord of the Sabbath and in this expression, quoted by all three of the Synoptics, there is a covert reference to the Lord's day. He, as Lord, chooses his own day." - Wilfrid Stott, "A Note on the Word KYPIAKH in Rev 1. 10", NTS 12 (1965): 75 - Wilfrid Stott
About investigating Christ's attitude about the Sabbath is rejected by the form critics: "Form critics would regard this investigation as futile, since they view the Gospels' report of Christ's Sabbath teachings and activities, not as authentic historical accounts but as later reflections of the primitive Church. What Jesus Himself may have thought, they claim is impossible to ascertain." Pg. 18 - form critics
