CODS SHRINE OF REMEMBRANCE The most beautiful memorial shrine in the world is the Taj Mahal at Agra, India, which was built by the great Mogul Emperor, the Shah Jahan, between 1631 and 1645, in memory of his favorite wife. A visitor describe it as a dream in white marble. This stately tomb is still a shrine of remembrance for thousands of tourists who flock to it each year from all over the world. GOD, also, has a Shrine of Remembrance, built not of marble, but of time. It is the SABBATH, the weekly day of rest, which was appointed by God in Eden, before man sinned, and will be kept in Eden restored, when sin is forever past. The entrance to the Sabbath Shrine is composed of ten pillars: THE FIRST PILLAR -- Genesis 2: 1-3, three steps involved in making the Sabbath 1) RESTED -- not the rest of exhaustion, but of achievement and satisfaction. 2) BLESSED -- to bless means to speak well of, to pronounce a blessing upon. 3) SANCTIFIED -- to sanctify means to separate or to set apart for a holy use. These three Divine actions are equivalent to a command that man should keep the Sabbath holy, for no other day of the week was thus separated or set apart by God. Nor can anyone but the Creator Himself remove the blessing from the Sabbath, or transfer it to another day A BLESSED SABBATH DAY TO ALL OF GODS CHILDREN THE WORLD OVER.
