True Seventh Day.

By Editor

THIS week we conclude the articles from Bro. Andrews, entitled, "Sunday Not the True Seventh Day." We have not published anything in the current volume more important in its facts, or more clear and conclusive in its method of statement, than this series. When we consider how abundant is the evidence for the identity of the seventh day, which the Jews have always kept, which God pointed out, both by his word and by providence, and how many are the errors and contradictions of those who try to prove that Sunday is the seventh day, we are constrained to believe that men accept their false reasonings and misrepresentations only because they wish to have it so. Many actually seek for something to confirm their prejudices or prepossessions, while they think they are seeking for the truth. They mistake their opinions of the doctrines of the Bible, for the truth of the Bible. They claim to love the Bible, while their actions show that their opinion of the Bible is what they hold so very sacred. Such are to be pitied; but our pity should not lead us to leave them in their self-deception without a warning.
