Sabbath Labor and Sunday

By Editor

One of our religious exchanges says, "From the religious standpoint, Sabbath labor beyond the strict bounds of necessity is sin, for the voice of Almighty God has proclaimed the day sacred." Our contemporary is talking about Sunday when he speaks of "Sabbath labor." We can readily find in the good Book where the voice of the Almighty enjoined the observance of the seventh day, commonly called Saturday. But where in all that Word has He ever enjoined the observance of Sunday? We will search in vain for the evidence. If we wish to stand in harmony with the voice of the Almighty, we must take our stand in favor of the day that His voice proclaimed sacred.
