A Daily Reading from the


Westminster Larger Catechism

Question 116

Q. 116. What is required in the fourth commandment?

A. The fourth commandment requireth of all men the sanctifying or keeping holy to God such set times as he hath appointed in his Word, expressly one whole day in seven; which was the seventh from the beginning of the world to the resurrection of Christ, and the first day of the week ever since, and so to continue to the end of the world; which is the Christian sabbath, and in the New Testament called the Lord’s Day.

Read on July 24 and September 18 in the Westminster Daily plan, where the proof texts are printed in full.
