Man Can Not Reverse It.

When Balaam had tried to curse Israel and failed, he had the candor to say, "He hath blessed; and I can not reverse it." Now God has "blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it," making it his holy Sabbath. Man may try to evade it, to curse it, and trample upon it. But God has blessed, and no man can reverse it. The blessing is still there every week. That is why God says, "Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it." Isa. 56: 2.—Present Truth.
