CANRIGHT VS. THE SABBATH RCASDA 51

“It is Paul who furnishes us the strong statements against the keeping of the Mosaic law, Sabbath and holy days. Let Sabbatarians meditate upon this point a little. The hottest battle which the great apostle to the Gentiles had to fight all his life was right upon the question of the observance of that law and these things; and his bitterest opponents were his own Christian brethren who were Jews. (Acts 15:1, 2; Galatians 2:1-14.) To conciliate these as far as possible, according to his own rule, ‘unto the Jews I became a Jew, that I might gain the Jews’ (1 Corinthians 9:20); he himself, as a Jew, not as a Christian,submitted to keep all the Jewish law, as we have seen.” -Mich. Christian Advocate of Sept. 24, 1887. RCASDA 51.1
