what I am about to say respecting the Sabbath

' Our Creator saw prof or to employ the first six
days of time in making this world. On the se.
venthday he rested, or ceased to work. This
day he sanctified or made hoTrsat It apart for
holy services. Gon. 2, 2 3. This was the com.
menccment of the Sabbath. Many ages after
thi , God appeared to Moseaon MountSinai "and
gave to him the .""ten, Commandmenti," written
on two tablet of ctime. Kuad Exodus 23th chap
from 3rd to verse 1 Bill. Here you see these words
" Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. Six
dyys.shalt thou lubor and do all thy work; but
the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy
God, in it thou'shal) not do any Work, .thou, thy
son or thy daughter, thy man servant or thy maid
servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is
within thy gates ; for in six days the Lord made
heaven and earth, the sun and all that in them is,
and rested the seventh day, whurcfore, the Lord
blessed the Sabbath day and sanctified it." Now
tbia command which Vc have just read is s com,
mand of God. . AU God's commands arc either
ceremonial or moral. A ceremonial command be
longs to a particular dispensation and is only obi u
gatory while ihut 'dispensation continues. There
were many ceremonial precept under the Jewish
dispensation, as the- feast ef Passover, - feast oi

dispensatioq haa taken its place, and these Jewish
ceremottioa are no longer binding upon us. Un
der the christian dispensation there are but two
ceremonial preaepu, vii Uaptiun and the Lord's
Supper. Thcaerwill be obligatory till the end of
time, for the christian dispensation Will eonUu
uc till Christ's second coming. , ..j
A moral command' or precept is always abliga
tory, be the dispensation what it may. All men
in all ages and under all dispensations arc moral,
ly bound ta lore and worship God. To honor
their parents to tor llicir fellow men OS them

before man became a sinner, before lis needed
Saviuor or any tile or type of him. If the, com-
Tmand respecting the Sabbath be not moral, no one
of the droaiogu can be moral. It stands in the
very heart of tha decalogue. Dispute its morali
ty and you may dispute all the rest, v-

Will not that individual that desecrates it stand

he repents? la there not much cause for deep
