Modern Sabbath Examined e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The object of the ensuing treatise is to institute an examination of the arguments usually adduced in support of the doctrine of the perpetuity of the weekly sabbath, under the Christian dispensation. The writer has aimed at pursuing the important inquiry involved in this examination, in the spirit recommended by the immortal Locke, to bring to our studies, and to our inquiries after knowledge, a mind covetous of truth, that seeks after nothing else, and after that impartially, and embraces it, how poor, how contemptible, how unfashionable soever it may seem; and he trusts, that by those who may feel disposed to pursue for themselves, the investigation of the sabbatarian question, in the same spirit, the results of his studies, now submitted to their notice, will be found not altogether undeserving of consideration.
