History Of The Sabbath And First Day Of The Week

John N. Andrews was fifteen years old when he, along with other Advent believers, experienced the Great Disappointment of 1844. A few months later Andrews accepted the truth of the Sabbath after reading a tract and dedicated his life to serving God. By age twenty-three, Andrews had written and published thirty-five articles in the Review, which was the beginning of a prolific writing career. History of the Sabbath establishes that the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord. Within the pages of this book, Andrews outlines the truth of the Sabbath through the example of the Creator, the blessing God placed upon the day, and the sanctification or divine appointment of the day to a holy use. The book examines the Sabbath from its inception at Creation to its place in history, showing how Sunday worship usurped the Lord's Day.

J. N. Andrews' History of the Sabbath is one of the most able defences of the seventh-day Sabbath established by God Himself as the rest-day at creation week. However, God's memorial has been attacked by Romanists as well as protestants. Providentially enough, history has clearly recorded the subtle yet tireless moves of men who endeavored to establish Sunday as the sacred day, putting down God's seventh-day Sabbath. In this book, you will find convincing evidence to settle this long-drawn controversy between Sabbath and Sunday. You will be amazed to see the kinds of arguments and ways in which Sunday defenders tried to make it sacred. A thorough examination is essential for everyone to take a stand on this question. The evidence is here. May God grant you a willing heart, in order that you may stand by His side and His people, regardless of temporal consequences, for it is written, "We ought to obey God rather than men" (Acts 5:29).
