True Sabbath-Keeping

In the “Signs” of April 17, page 8, in the article entitled “Our National Bribe,” the writer says: “It is certainly a good thing that men should keep Sabbath. It is essential that they keep the day which they believe to be the Sabbath; and happy is that people or that individual that is found so doing.” What the writer should have said was, “It is essential to true Sabbath-keeping that men keep the true Sabbath.” He did not design to teach that the government should make men keep Sabbath, nor that wrong is right if only we do it conscientiously and zealously.
