"You who tell stories of an _old_ Sabbath and a _new_ Sabbath, a _Jewish_ Sabbath and a _Christian_ Sabbath, a Sabbath of the _seventh_ day and a Sabbath of the _first_ day of the week; that so you may slily fix the name _Sabbath_ on _the Lord's Day_, and then persuade the simple and ignorant that all those texts of Scripture wherein mention is made of _the Sabbath day_, are intended of _the Lord's Day_; when indeed to call the Lord's Day _the Sabbath_, is as senseless as to call Sunday _Saturday_, or the _first_ day _the last day_ of the week, when throughout the Old and New Testament we have not the least intimation of any other weekly Sabbath, save the old, Jewish, seventh day Sabbath; when you yourselves confess, that the name Lord's Day, is more proper and particular, and less obvious to exception, than the name Sabbath; and that the name Sabbath is in dignity inferior to both Lord's Day and Sunday--Do you not _befool and mislead the people_? "You that condemn the yearly observance of Christ's birth-day as heathenish, yet acknowledge this feast to be a constitution of the ancient primitive Church--Do you not _befool and mislead the people_? "Take ye heed; these are not small matters; consider well with yourselves what it is to stand guilty before God of belying Christ and his apostles, and wilfully wresting the Holy Scriptures. Be advised; take time while time is to repent of those notorious slanders wherewith you have aspersed the ancient approved ways of God's worship; and let the sincerity of your repentance appear by the speedy abandoning of your unchristian practices and principles; lest the heavy judgment of seducers, _to wax worse and worse_, fall upon you, and God in the end _deliver you up_ to such _strong delusions_, that you _should believe your own lies_." Published by the American Sabbath Tract Society, No. 9 Spruce Street, N. Y. No. 6. TWENTY REASONS FOR KEEPING HOLY IN EACH WEEK, THE SEVENTH DAY INSTEAD OF THE FIRST DAY. 1. Because the Seventh Day was blessed and sanctified for a Sabbath, by God, immediately after the creation of the world, as a perpetual memorial of that wonderful work, and of His own resting from it; and because there is now as much need for man to remember God's creative work, and to enjoy a weekly rest, as ever there was. 2. Because there is evidence that the Seventh Day was observed from Adam to Moses, by Noah, Jacob, Joseph, and Job. (See Gen. vii. 4, 10; viii. 10, 12; xxix. 27, 28; l. 10; Job. ii. 3.)
