Preparing for the Sabbath
"Baronald," in the Advance of June 15, in his "Monday Musings," says:— If it were of any use I would like to make an appeal for the keeping of Saturday, and especially of Saturday evening, as a means of preparing for the best keeping of the sabbath. Formerly, as we all recall, some of our fathers and mothers began the Sabbath on Saturday at sun fall, and as carefully kept the evening as they did the following day. And this is an admission of the Bible truth. The day begins at sundown and ends at sundown; this is Bible truth. The Sabbath is the seventh day and not the first; this is also Bible truth. The proper way to observe the Bible Sabbath is the Bible way, namely, all the week to "remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." Then when the hours of the Sabbath come, Friday evening at sundown, the Christian Sabbath keeper is ready to greet it as a friend and receive of its blessings. Why not be wholly biblical?
