The Following Requests
By Editor
HAVE been given in about twenty numbers of the REVIEW for the last six months, yet no one has presented the text or texts to prove the change, or the abolition of the Sabbath. Copies of the REVIEW containing these requests have doubtless fallen into the hands of many of those who zealously advocate either the change, or the abrogation of the Sabbath. Now if such persons have any plain Bible testimony for their views of this question, we should be glad to see it. And if they think us in error on this subject, and wish to convert us from it, they may be assured that the best way to accomplish it, is to furnish us with a few direct texts on the change, or the abolition of the Lord's Sabbath. The Herald, Harbinger and Watchman have had the weekly visits of the REVIEW, bearing to them these reasonable requests. These papers reject and oppose our view of the Sabbath; the Herald teaches a change, and the others, the abolition of the Sabbath; yet they suffer us to call in vain for a text, or texts of scripture in support of the positions they take on this question. The fact in this case, reader, is simply this: they have none to present! If they had, they would produce them. By their silence relative to these requests, they virtually admit that they have none! Once more we present them, and call especial attention to them.
