JUDAISM

FromThe Review and Herald, Review and Herald, Vol. 48, No. 4.

The following paragraph from the St. Louis Christian, headed “Judaism,” shows on what class of arguments Sunday-keeping is based:—

“We have received a ‘Remonstrance from the West,’ against running Sunday excursion trains to Philadelphia. It has a great deal to say about ‘Sabbath-breaking,’ the ‘decalogue,’ the ‘fourth commandment,’ and refers to ‘Leviticus,’ and ‘Nehemiah,’ but says not one word about Jesus Christ, his resurrection from the dead on the first day of the week, the Lord’s day and the gospel. We shall never succeed in getting the Lord’s day respected by talking about the ‘Sabbath,’ the ‘law,’ and the ‘decalogue.’ Let us leave Judaism and come to the gospel.”
