The Sabbath is the seventh day of rest commanded in the Ten Commandments, commemorating God's rest after creation. Jews observe Saturday; most Christians worship Sunday (the Lord's Day—Christ's resurrection day). Christians debate whether Sabbath commands still apply or are fulfilled in Christ, our ultimate rest (Hebrews 4).
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”
- Exodus 20:8
The Ten Commandments are God's moral laws given to Moses on Mount Sinai (Exodus 20). They include: 1) No other gods, 2) No idols, 3) Don't misuse God's name, 4) Keep the Sabbath, 5) Honor parents, 6) Don't murder, 7) Don't commit adultery, 8) Don't steal, 9) Don't lie, 10) Don't covet.
The church is the community of all believers in Jesus Christ—His body on earth. It's not primarily a building but people called out by God to worship Him, grow together, and serve the world. The local church gathers for worship, teaching, fellowship, and mission.
The Bible presents peace as both a gift from God and a fruit of the Spirit. Jesus said, 'Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you' (John 14:27). Biblical peace (Hebrew shalom) means wholeness and flourishing, not just absence of conflict. It comes through trusting God and is guarded by prayer (Philippians 4:6-7).
