Special 10 Tie Ne70s
Well, | will have to turn my atten-
tion and answer blue He wants to
know which is the worst, for a man to
work on Sunday, not knowing it is
Sunday, or for preacher to buy buby
seed and sell goods on Sunday, know
ing at the time that it was the Sab
bath. I don't think God holds man
responsible for doing thing through
ignorance. The first answer make is
this. Works of piety and necessity are
accepted as a laid-down principle by
Christ and accepted by all writers and
christians of any note, If the preach
er that you speak Of as selling goods
on Sunday, sold the goods on actual
necessity, say to bury the dead, or
something in the way of medicine, or
maybe some special diet which could
be procured only from merchant, un-
der such circumstances, according to
the teaching of Gods word, he is not
doing anything wrong. Jesus asked
the question when he He was accused
by the Jews of Sabbath breaking. The
Jews looked at it somewhat like
"Blue." They said there were six
days that men ought to work and Jesus
said, lis it lawful to take life or save
it? What man of you having an OK
will not loose him and lead him to wa
terY See the Jews thought Jesus
ought to let the sick suffer until the
next day, but still they would water
their oxen. When the Jews accused
the Saviour on another occasion of
breaking the Sabbath by allowing His
disciples to get in a mans field and
pluck the ears of corn and eat them,
Jesus said, Have you not read what
David did when he was hungry, how
he went into the house of the Lord and
ate the bread, and the men that were
with him, and he was blameless by the
Lord, because it was a necessity, an(
no one was allowed to eat this bread
but the priests. Further, the preach
er that bought the buby seed nigh
have seen clearly that the OK had fal
len into the ditch and was trying t.
pull him out, as the party that brough
them had Travelled four miles and haC
four to travel in returning which mad
a distance of eight miles. 1t was cer
tainly right in this case for tn
preacher to take the buby seed and lie
the party have what they needed
knowing that the family was in mea
ger circumstances, from the example
the Lord left us, which we are not a
liberty to disregard. Waterman.
