God Is Profaned by Hiding Our Eyes and Not Distinguishing His Sabbath ㅡ

 “Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned my holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.” (Ezekiel 22:26)

“Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.... The seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work.” (Exodus 20:8-10).

The seventh day is God′s chosen day.

He has not left this matter to be remodeled by priest or ruler.

It is of too great importance to be left to human judgment.

God saw that men would study their own convenience, and choose a day best suited to their inclinations, a day bearing no divine authority; and He has stated plainly that the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord.

Men could not place themselves more decidedly in opposition to God′s work and to His law than by upholding a day that is without one evidence of sanctity, and professing to worship Him on that day.

Those who have corrupted the law by substituting a false sabbath for the holy Sabbath of God, and who compel the observance of this false sabbath, exalt themselves above God, and honor the spurious above the genuine.

Men have sought out many inventions.

They have taken a common day, upon which God has placed no sanctity, and have clothed it with sacred prerogatives.

They have declared it to be a holy day, but this does not give it a vestige of sanctity.

They dishonor God by accepting human institutions and presenting to the world as the Christian Sabbath a day which has no “Thus saith the Lord” for its authority.
