A Confession About Sunday Observance

By Editor

Commenting on the fact that the British and American exhibitions in Paris close on Sunday, the Christian at Work of June 6 says:—

“Such a proceeding gives more practical effect to Sunday observance than whole tomes basing the observing of the first day of the week on the commandment which enjoins the observance of the seventh day.”

This is a confession which, however, the Christian at Work has more than once made before, that there is no divine authority for Sunday observance. This being true, we do not see why it is desirable to give practical effect to such observance. The confession, however, is noteworthy.
