In this collection are gathered the writings by J. N. Andrews on the topic of the Sabbath, from one of the earliest pamphlets on the Sabbath truth, into more elaborate sermons and writings establishing the historical and Biblical foundation of the Sabbath within the framework of the Law and the Gospel.
Andrews’ larger book, History of the Sabbath, is not included in this collection, but will be released as a separate book when ready.
Andrews had a fairly good grasp of the two covenants also, shown in one of the sermons by that name. This preceded E. J. Waggoner’s discussions about that topic, and was inline with what Waggoner later taught. Andrews understood and taught that the Gospel did not supersede the Law, but provided a way whereby its righteousness could be fulfilled in the believer.
While these writings do not go into depth on the spiritual meaning of the Sabbath, they do establish the foundation for its veracity and morality. 409p
