Exodu 20:8-11 REMEMBER THE SABBATH DAY TO KEEP IT HOLY. What preparations in our homes should be done before the Sabbath? “On Friday let the preparation for the Sabbath be completed. See that all the clothing is in readiness, and that all the cooking is done. Let the boots be blacked, and the baths be taken. It is possible to do this. If you make it a rule, you can do it. The Sabbath is not to be given to the repairing of garments, to the cooking of food, to pleasure seeking, or to any other worldly employment… Parents, explain your work and its purpose to your children and let them share in your preparation to keep the Sabbath according to the commandment.” Child Guidance, 528. “All preparation should be made, every stitch taken, on the six working days; all cooking for the Sabbath should be done on the preparation day…The commandment is, ‘Bake that which ye will bake to-day, and seethe that ye will seethe, for to-morrow is the rest of the holy Sabbath.’ That day is not to be given to the cooking of food.” Lake Union Herald, April 14, 1909. When should all ordinary work be completed? “Before the setting of the sun let all secular work be laid aside and all secular papers be put out of sight.” The Faith I Live By, 34. “We should jealously guard the edges of the Sabbath. Remember that every moment is consecrated, holy time.” Testimonies, vol. 6, 356.
