Why I Keep the Sabbath

By Editor

Sister Maria Edson writes from Franklin Co., Mass.:—
“It is a little more than one year since I began to keep the Sabbath of the Lord. I have been a believer in the near coming of the Lord since 1850. Eight years since I professed to love the Lord, and united with the Methodist church. I often used to wonder why professed Christians did not keep the Seventh-day Sabbath; but I was taught that Christ and his apostles changed the Sabbath. Since I began to search the Bible for myself, I have become convinced that the Sabbath has not been changed, but remains the same as when written by the finger of God. I feel thankful that I was ever led to see that I was trampling upon one of his holy commandments.”
