ONE DAY ABOVE ANOTHER.

In Rom. 14: 5, where Paul speaks of some who esteem one day above another, and some every day alike, and says, “Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind,” does he include the Sabbath among those days? J. T. S.
Ans.—He does not; because the Sabbath is set apart by itself and dedicated to the Lord. It is His day, and has been given us only to be used for Him. In Exodus 16 we have the account of the giving of the manna. None fell on the Sabbath. A man could not get it on that day. Yet they were told to go out and gather a certain portion every day. The Sabbath was not included. But suppose Paul does refer to the Sabbath and its keeping, and says, “Let every man be persuaded in his own mind.” How would you be persuaded that you ought to keep it? Would it not be to keep it just as the Lord has told us in other places that we ought to do?
