Evolution and the Sabbath.
By George McCready Price, B. S. L., No. 198, price, one cent. “At the end of this first week of time, God instituted the Sabbath as a reminder of the fact that He had made the world in six days of the same length and character as the seventh, or Sabbath.” This statement is found at the very beginning of this important tract. The author goes on to give scientific reasons why he can not accept evolution, and why he does accept the six-literal-day creative period of the Scriptures. He makes it very clear that the Sabbath is a constant reminder of the facts that the Lord did create all things, and did it in six days, and that He has power to re-create or redeem us as well. Evolution is really salvation by works. “For,” says one of its leading exponents, “the process of evolution is an advance toward true salvation.” “Hence,” says the author, “the Sabbath is doubly precious to us as moderns, not only as a protest against the papal form of the doctrine of salvation by works, but also as a protest against the doctrine of salvation by the development of evolution, as taught by modern apostate Protestantism.” This is a tract which deserves careful study and a wide circulation.
