Publisher's Description

From the Introduction: “As a new believer, I had not given particular attention to the fourth commandment, or Sabbath day. I was shocked when a minster told me that not only should I refrain from my worldly employments on the Sabbath day, but that I should abstain from recreations and conversation that would be lawful on other days. He also taught me that the Sabbath was designed by God to be a day in which the entire time was to be spent in the joyful duties of public and private worship, which is meant to be a foretaste of heaven itself. Since then, after I weighed the biblical evidence as to how the Christian Sabbath or Lord's Day should be kept, it has proved to be the best day of the week and the ‘market day of the soul,’ with exceedinly great precious promises attached to it.”
