“The sacred name of the seventh day is the Sabbath. This fact is all too clear to require argument. (Exodus 20:10) … On this point the plain teaching of the Word has been admitted in all ages ...Not once did the disciples apply the Sabbath law to the first day of the week—that folly was left for a later age, nor did they pretend that the first day supplanted the seventh.”
Dr Hiscox Sermon reported in New York Examiner, Nov 16, 1893.
“To me it seems unaccountable that Jesus during three years discussion with His disciples, often conversing with them on the Sabbath question, discussing it in its various aspects, freeing it from its false (Jewish traditional) glosses , never alluded to any transference of the day; also during the 40 days of His resurrection life no such thing was intimated.”

“The Sabbath was binding in Eden, and it has been in force ever since. This fourth commandment begins with the word Remember’, showing that the Sabbath already existed when God wrote the law on the table of stone at Sinai. How can men claim that one commandment has been done away with when they will admit that the other nine are still binding?” |
