Почему это очень важно сегодня? Потому что нынешнее поколение практически полностью вырастает без духовной борьбы. Наши дети мало знают, что значит отстаивать субботу в школе. Наши дети мало знают, что значит поношение за веру. Наши дети мало знают, что значит страх преследований, лишения материнства, отцовства, родительских прав. Наши дети мало знают прошлое. Нынешнее поколение вырастает без твердых духовных ориентиров. Им уже не с кого брать пример.

stand up for Saturday in school / stand up for Saturday as free day in school
In all Soviet schools Saturday was a workday (the only day off was Sunday), at the same time for some confessions (e.g. Seventh-day Adventist Church) Saturday is even more important than Sunday and it is not allowed to work on that day
