The Sabbath Kept by the Master

THE Examiner of Sept. 12, 1912, speaks truly when it says, with respect to the Sabbath, “No man is able to work all the time and be preserved in health and become prosperous. The great Master rested from his labors when the seventh day rolled round, and appointed that day as a respite from labor. One day in seven for rest, as against seven days in the week for labor, is the principle to be observed.” Believing that the Master rested from his labors on the seventh day of the week, and appointed that day as a respite from labor, why should the Examiner be found advocating another day? Why should it be found advocating not only another day than that enjoined by the Master, but advocating that it be enforced by law, something that the Master never advocated with respect to the true Sabbath? “He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.” 1 John 2:6.
