THE CHRISTI AND Th The sonnon herewith printed was [ preache<l :n T no Auoevuie rresuyienan Church on May 1912. and is the sequel to j that published heretofore in this paper. It seeks to present the attitude Christians j should maintain towards that portion of j their time whirh they should dedicate: solely to religious service. The sermon < has been furnished at the request of the editors of this paper, who have kindly consented to publish it at the solicitation j; of mauy who heard it delivered. "This is the day which the Lord hath;1 made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."? Psa. 118:24. On last Sunday morning we preached on the subject of the Sabbath, the seventh day of the week, and sought t to present the truth on this matter as v found in the Bible. Practically all that we t said concerned the seventh day <>f the rj week, ordinarily called by us Saturday, but ( which with Scriptural propriety we might v call the Sabbath, aud not Saturday. The } Lord's Day. that is the first day of the ^ the week, which we call Sunday, was spok- | en of only incidentally. What, we say to-;, day will concern cliiehy the Lord's bay, jt though the Sabbath will be mentioned<? when necessary in order to clear the! minds of many of evident confusion that 11 exists there on this subject. 11 The lirst mention of the Lord's Day by > name in the Bible is in the USth Psalm: Ir "This is the day which l lie Lord hath I^ made; we will rejoice and tic glad in it." In the 12th chapter of Mark, alter Christ! had spoken the parable against the Jews of the vineyard and the murder of the son j of the owner, he asked them, "Have ye J never read, the stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner. This is the Lord's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes." It is an exact quotation of the two verses preceding our test. The stone is Christ, as all know. The builders are the Jews. The stone refused is Christ rejected by the Jews. The stone raised to the headstone is Christ raised from the dead after his rejection. The marvelous doing is the resurrection* "This day." spoken of in the text is the day of God's marvelous doing, that is, the resurrection of Christ from the dead. The day of the marvelous doing is theretore the day of j the resurrection. The resurrection day is { therefore Uie ilay the Lord made, and be- ? cause he made it, it is His in a special j sense, and should he called the Lord's Day. j Now, since the resurrection occurred on j the first day of the week, it follows of ne- , cessity that the first day is the Lord's t day. The Psalmist, speaking by the Spirit, f says that those who love the Lord will <\s- t teem this day above all other days in the i week. Though this is the first mention by name , of the day in the Bible, it is referred to in t Lev. 23:10-11. In connection with the feast j of lirst-fruits a sheep was to be brought to the .priest and on the day after the Sab- ( bath, that is the 11 ret day of the week, he was to wave it, wnicn act was accom pi issu ed by lifting it up before the Lord. Tak ing this in connection with I Cor. 15:20, "Now is Christ risen from the dead and bet-nine the first fruits," we see that it foreshadowed the resurrection, and as Christ rose from the dead on the first day of the week, we find anticipated in Le viticus, as well as prophecied in the Psalms, the resurrection of Christ, and the day declared to be the Lord's Day as plainly as words can declare. The only other place in which the Lord's day is specilically mentioned is Rev. 1:10. In this passage there is nothing to indicate which day in seven it was. But in many places in the New Testament we lind that the disciples came together on the lirst day of the week, and whatever stated times there were for worship or service for God, the first day seems to have been the one most used. But there is no/specific command anywhere in the Bible making the lirst day of the week a day of legal ob ligation, as the seventh tlav of the week was under the dispensation of law.

PARK, THE SOUTHERN COT ABBEVIL IAN IE SABBATH has with reference to many other mat ters of practical living? I find tha it is necessary to remind yon frequentl of the fact that the believer is no under the law. None of the command uients has any authority over the tru Christian. This is reiterated again am again in the IJible. In Rom. U I'uul says "Ye are not under the law." In Gal. 3:2 "After that faith is come, we are no longe under a schoolmaster," and the school master is explained to be the law. In Gal 3:18, Paul says, "But if ye are led by tin Spirit, ye are not under the law." No Christian is under the law in anj sense. The law for the Christian is onlj jf use for instruction. The question will be asked that wai icbiwl i?f Ph.ii I fim ii Phriiitiiiii t.lipn vinlnti the law at will and be blameless? Has hf Lite right to steal, to lie, to swear ant :urse? We reply, if he is a Christian h< vill not want to do these things. A Chris ian is one who is led by the spirit of God The evidence of one's genuineness in tht 'lu istian profession is that he follows the spirit. He yields always to the Spirit Will the Spirit- lead a man into stealing' tVill the Spirit lead a man into lying' Tutil Christ, one is under the law. Bui vlien faith is come he is no longer undei he law, but is under grace, or, what is the lame thing, led by the Spirit. At this point conies to light the teaching >f the Scriptures in regard to the practical est* of being followers of the Spirit. You vill recall the fact that there are many {numerations in the New Testament ol tharacteristics of believers and unbeliev >rs. And yet you will search in vain in hese lists to find any reference to Sabbath neakers as one of the evidences of unoe ief. or of keeping either the Sabbath 01 he Lord's day being an evidence of genu ne faith. Take the first chapter of Romans. Look >ver the list of sins that Paul mentions here as evidence of unbelief, ungodliness: fornication, the seventh commandment, ovetousness, the tenth commandment, lisobedient to parents, the fifth, murder, he sixth, idolaters, the first and second, leceit, the ninth, hat*u? of God, covenant ll'eaKtfrs, lliw uiuu, uui/ nut n single mu nation of Sabbath breaking. Take Galatians 5. Here we have another ist, adultery, the seventh, idolatry, the Irst and second, murder, the sixth, and io on, but not an intimation of Sabbath ireaking. Take Rev. 22. Here we find mother list of things that are character istic of the ungodly, but Sabbath breaking s not hinted at. Look at 1 Cor. 6. Paul s there describing what the Corinthians vere before they were saved. Idolaters, he lirst and second, revilers, pobably re erring to the third, adulterers, thiev?'6 ovetous, but not a reference to Sabbath nvaking. So much for the lists of sins and theii eference to the commandments. Every ommandment is referred to except ih ourth. But take the New Testament as a whole Consider the repeated commands: The lirst. Matt. 4:10. Thou shalt worship he Lord thy God and Him only shalt serve. The second. I John 5:21. Little children ceep yourselves from idols. The* third. Kom. 12:14. Curse not. Fifth. Eph. 0:2. Honor thy father anc mother, which is the first commandment w ith promise. Sixth and seventh. Rom. 13:9. Thoi shalt not commit adultery. Thou shall iot kill. Eighth. Let him that stole, steal nt more. Ninth. Col. 3:9. Lie not one to another. Tenth. Rom. 13:9. Thou shalt not covet Thus you will see from these Scriptures juoted "that every commandment of th< lecalogue is reiterated, but there is n<n the slightest reference to the fourth any ivhere in the New Testament. Hence aftei Christ came whether a man kept the Sab jath or not was a matter of utter indiffer Mice. As we have said before, the Sabbath was .

C. ed, but because they love Jesus, their Sa vior, they will use it for him. The fourth commandment reveals a principle which is borne out by experience and the example of the early church that one seventh of our time should be used es pecially for the Lord. One who loves the Lord will want at least one seventh. The real children of God by faith in Christ usu ally take a great deal more than one-sev enth specially for him. For they use the hour or so on Wednesday night, they use about an hour every day in private and fnmilv wnrshin. tfiev sDend seasons in I_ protracted service, so that the real child e of God devotes ?i great deal more than j one-seventh of the time to God. It is a very fair question, therefore, as 5 indicating the spiritual condition of a con gregation for ohi- General Assembly to . ask how is the Lord's Day observed. (Note I if you please it is the Lord's Day, not the Sabbath about which this question is asked.) Do the people spend that day, which 16, by the law of the State, kept free T from intrusion, do they follow the example of Christ and use it for active service for 5 him, do they seize this time, in Abbeville? } for it is about ourselves we are talking? ? in going dowu to the mill village, where j work is stopped, and seeking to impart to > those there the blessings which they en - joy, by tfoing out to neglected districts and spreading the good news of the gos j pel, by meetiug together and not only j worshipping God and singing his praises, [ in the stated meeting at 11 and 8, but also I by gathering into the Sunday school the > children who are not favored as theirs? [ Do they lay by in store for the offerings as . God has prospered them, or do they dis , honor God and their profession by sleeping late Sunday morning, or spending the aft . ernoon in sellish idleness or in fretting j that respectability demands that they LI_ .... I ,||? [ WUlSllip, Ut ICUsiL UUl/>VilLUl)', 111 mo OftlJUlU" . ary, though of course such worship could not bo real, or by showing an unwelcome ; spirit when those who happen to be poor [ come to hear the gospel in their church, and , thereby saying, like the Pharisees of old, . "I.thank thee that I am not as other men . are," or by not coining up to the attain ment of the stingy Jew of old who gave a tenth of his increase, and instead of lay ing by for the Lord as he has prospered ( him, laying by a bare pittance for His ser ; vice. It is a fitting question. How do [ your people observe the Lord's Day? I am satisfied that the churches are full today of legalists, of men who though professing to be saved by faith, yet really , think that they are virtuous because they do this or that or do not do this or that. And these legalists . use the Lord's Day, which was in i tended to be used not primarily for rest, as a day of lazy idleness, refusing to use | their talents, which are so many and so I tine, for the glory of Christ and soothing their consciences under the plea that they are keeping ttie fourth commandment, and thus making use of the word of God, ( as the devil did, to escape sacrifice for Christ. Now let me show you a blessed secret: Nature and Scripture reveal the fact that man needs physically one day's re6t in seven. But the Christian, if his covetous iic88 does not tempt him into using more - of the six days in work than is right, will i lind greater physical rest in worship and active service on the Lord's day than in , idling and sleeping. Recall that wonderful scene in our ? Lord's Jife. Wearied and worn out, on his , way from Judea to Galilee, he sat on the well near Samaria. Think of the Creator , of all things wearied and so in need of rest that he did not accompany his disciples into, the city. While they are gone a I woman comes down to draw water for pu l rihcation, to perform an act of religious worship. One in the dark seeking light, i And here at her side was the light of the t world. It is not our purpose to describe the interview or its effect on the woman. > What I wish you to notice was its effect on Christ. When the disciples came back re membering that they had gone to buy . meat for Him, they said, "Master, eat." 5 But he did not need food now. Ho had, ? been engaged in a spiritual service and I this took away his weariness. And in this . we have an example of what use to make r of the Lord's day. We may be wearied by . the physical labor of the week before. . But in order to get the best physical bless iug for ourselves as well as spiritual, if we 3 worked with might and main in teaching s Christ and ministering for Christ on the 1 Lord's Day, it would go farther than . morning naps or afternoon sleeps of lazy ) idleness than anything else. There is one matter however which ought to be noted whether you are a Christian or not. If you are not a real Christian, so far as I can see from the Bible you are under the law and bound under the penalty of the law to keep the seventh-day Sabbath. If you are a Christian, you are not under any legal obligation at all, you are not under the law, and so the seventh-day Sabbath has no claim upon you either as an obliga tion or privilege. But whether you ob serve the Sabbath or the Lord's day and for whatever reason, the whole Christian world is guilty of a most serious sin in connection with the day, namely, the time when the day should begin. Heathen Christendom began the day at midnight. The Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation begin the day at sunset. Originally the evening and the morning were the first day, not part of the evening and all the daylight and part of the next evening, out the evening and the morning constituted day. On the iir6t day of the week when the disciples came together to break bread Paul preached to them, intending to depart in the morning, lie preached till midnight, and after the young man fell out of. the window and was restored, he continued till daylight and then travelled on the Lord's day. At the end of the Sab bath Christ rose from the dead. But we need not multiply references. About this there is 110 dispute that the day began and ended at sunset. Why have we made the godless change ? And having m-ide it, we are reaping the consequences. Sup pose the slaw made its day of iiest begin at sunset, as it lias a right to do. Since it lias made Sunday the day for its citizens to rest, what an advantage that would be to us Christians! All the work would cease atsuuset, Saturday. There would be 110 tired clerks worked to death by covet ous employers. A quiet evening at home with all the cares laid aside. A restful 1 ll ...14.1. .. IJl^Ill/, ttliu 111U11 W1UI n VlgVl vuo imuu untJ morning of the Lord's Day spent in Bible School and worship, and then after dinner the whole of the afternoon spent in active service, rendering to less favored ones the blessings of grace which we ourselves have, and when the sun set and the Lord's Day ended,, gathering the family at home to enjoy whatever were of interest to them all. How this could be practically accom plished, with things as they exist today we do not know, but the benefits of It all are manifest to any thinning man Just a moment ago we spoke of Paul's travelling on Sunday. At Troas he preached alf night and at break of day de parted and went from Troas to Assos. Here we find Paul travelling on Sunday when it is evident from the narrative that it was not necessary, for he had been in Troas already seven days, and could easily have done his preaching some days before. However, we know Paul did right. Upon what principle would the Scripture justify this conduct 'i Or to put the question in one or its many forms, Is it right for me ride on the trains on Sunday ? That which I say is intended wholly for Christians, for those born again. This and similar questions are to be settled by these simple principles: Is the act for God's Glory ? Is it according to the law of love ? Does it offend a weak conscience ? Take the individual who is considering the question. Will riding on the train on the Sunday in question be for God's glory V Uf ncitirr t.hie fimft whir?h ic nfYnrrlprt ma oc "?'J "?*?b "1,IW ? ?VfcV.V?. ?V free from daily work in riding on the train, will I do more in that way to glorify God than in any other way? An honest an swer to this question will go a long way towards settling one's mind. Then the other principle, the law of love, will wholly determine it. In order that I may ride on Sunday many men are forced to give up their day of privilege. Is it Christlike to deprive my brother man of privileges which can be had only on the Lord's day V If your brother man happens to be an un believer, the law of love would apply even more strongly. His chunce for eternal life turns for the most part 011 his opportunity to hear the gospel preached on the Lord's Day. Would this pe pleasing to Christ to keep him aut of this privilege ! 11' these two principles do not wholly set tle the matter then the third one, Does such conduct on my part cause offence to a weak conscience V will do so. My act in any given case may be right In itself, may be the best use of my time for myself and ii.rifrU others, may glorify our heavenly Father, I so far as it relates primarily to Him, but if it cause offence to a weak conscience,1 then it is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine nor anything whereby ray brother is caused to stumble or is made weak. With these principles to guide, the whole question ought to be free from doubt. In conclusion, as summing up the gist of these two discourses, we would say that the Sabbath stands for man under law, the Lord's day for man under grace; the Sab bath for man under doom, the Lord's Day for man set free; the Sabbati^, for the earth, the Lord's Day for heaven; the one for the flesh, the other for the spirit; the one for man in sin, the other for man in Christ; the one for man under sentence of death, the other for man in life; the one a dead Christ, the other for a living Christ; the Sabbath stands for death, nothing but death; the Lord's Day stands for life, nothing but life. Place the days side by side and the grave of Christ is between. The Sabbath is on one side of His grave, the Lord's Day on the other side, tins side, and knows that the grave is empty, and that the man who lay there in his physical body was raised up in that body to endless life. The Sab bath stands for midnight, despair; the Lord's Day for mid noon and hope. "Those who teach the Sabbath substi tute Law for Grace, Moses for Christ, Works for Faith, Earth for Heaven, the Old Creation for the New, a Dead Christ for a living Christ." To teach the Sabbath as binding on a Christian is to pervert the Scriptures, and show one's self spiritually blind. Let us turn therefore to the first day of the week and let us sing with the Psalm ist: "This is the day which the Lord hath made: we will rejoice and be glad in it." WEST END.
