The seventh-day Sabbath is
to be taught and kept holy in accordance with the biblical instruction. Instituted at creation, reaffirmed to Israel as a
part of the covenant at Sinai, and taught by Jesus Christ, who is the Messenger of the New Covenant, the observance of the
Sabbath is basic to a Christian's relationship with God.
Genesis 2:2–3; Exodus 16:1-36;
20:8–11; 31:12–17; Mark 2:27–28; Luke 4:16
ANNUAL HOLY DAYS The annual holy days were ordained by God, kept by the ancient Israelites, and continued by the early New Testament
Christians. These seven annual "appointed feasts" picture God's plan of salvation for man.
