The Seventh-day Men


Book Description

"Seventh-Day Men" was the seventeenth-century name given to an emerging and important body of Christians who believed in the strict observance of Saturday, rather than Sunday, as the Sabbath. This is the first-ever fully documented study of these people, who in their heyday were at the center of debate and controversy among the leading writers of the age. This study provides clear evidence that this sabbatarian body of Christians was far more extensive than has so far been recognized, and establishes its considerable significance within the history of the church in the period.

History of the Sabbath and First Day of the Week


Book Description

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.
