5. OF JUSTIFICATION
6. OF THE FREENESS OF SALVATION
7. OF GRACE IN REGENERATION
8. OF REPENTANCE AND FAITH
9. OF GOD'S PURPOSE OF GRACE

15. OF THE CHRISTIAN SABBATH
- We believe that the first day of the week is the Lord's Day, or Christian Sabbath;⁷⁸ and is to be kept sacred to religious purposes,⁷⁹ by abstaining from all secular labor and sinful recreations;⁸⁰ by the devout observance of all the means of grace, both private⁸¹ and public;⁸² and by preparation for that rest that remaineth for the people of God.⁸³
