Sabbath of the Lord
59
The observance of the Sabbath would have preserved the world from
idolatry.
The fourth commandment has been trampled upon, therefore we
are called upon to repair the breach in the law and plead for the dese-
crated Sabbath. The man of sin, who exalted himself above God, and
thought to change times and laws, brought about the change of the
Sabbath from the seventh to the first day of the week. In doing this he
made a breach in the law of God. Just prior to the great day of God,
[87]
a message is sent forth to warn the people to come back to their alle-
giance to the law of God, which anti-christ has broken down. Attention
must be called to the breach in the law, by precept and example.
I was shown that the precious promises of
Isaiah 58:12-14
apply to
those who labor for the restoration of the true Sabbath.
I was shown that the third angel proclaiming the commandments
of God and the faith of Jesus
represents the people who receive
this message, and raise the voice of warning to the world to keep the
commandments of God and His law as the apple of the eye; and that
in response to this warning, many would embrace the Sabbath of the
Lord.
