Baptism and Sabbath History

J. WILMOT: We do not see how it could be right for a Seventh-day Adventist, to receive baptism from one not agreeing with him in sentiment, or one who, however unconsciously, was habitually violating the law of God. The scattered ones must try to arrange to attend some of our general meetings the nearest to them, to receive the ordinance. We have no History of the Sabbath, from any first-day writer. But all the copious extracts, in Bro. Andrews' History, with the exception of two authors, are from those who did not believe in the observance of the seventh day. Hence the testimony given in that work, was not written in the interest of the Sabbath. It should therefore be satisfactory even to the most biased mind.
