| Summary | "The Sabbath: A Sermon" by John Warton is a theological sermon written in the early 19th century. It discusses the significance of the Sabbath as a day of rest and worship, emphasizing the commandment to keep it holy, as stated in the Bible. The book serves to instruct and inspire its readers, particularly the parishioners of Coulsdon, about the importance of dedicating time to God in a world often preoccupied with secular concerns. In this sermon, Warton argues that the observance of the Sabbath is not merely an obligation but a necessary component for personal well-being and societal harmony. He highlights that God Himself instituted the Sabbath at creation and that its observance has been universally binding on all humanity, not just the Jewish people. The sermon reflects on the spiritual benefits of the Sabbath, advocating for a day free from worldly distractions dedicated to worship, reflection, and renewal. Warton expresses concern over the neglect of this holy day in contemporary society and calls for a return to reverence, encouraging individuals to attend church regularly and uphold the sanctity of the Sabbath in their lives.
