Xmas week at Hickory Grove, Warren County, Tennessee.
Burnell affirmed: The Lord had sanctified the seventh day (Saturday) as a special day of worship under the Christian dispensation. Burnell tried to show that there was a difference between the law of Moses and the law of the Lord. He claimed that the Ten Commandments, which were written on stone and which contained the Sabbath ordinance, was the law of the Lord; and that the law of Moses was pertaining to the Levitical priesthood, sacrificial offerings, etc. Brother Boles showed by Luke 2:22-27; Nehemiah 8:1-18; 10:29 that the law of the Lord, the law of Moses and the law were all one, and that they all ended with the cross (Colossians 2:13-17) and there is no point in the law binding upon us today, save that which was brought forward and placed in the law this side of the cross. Brother Boles showed that nine of the Ten Commandments were brought forward and placed in the new law.
In the second proposition Brother Boles affirmed that the Lord had sanctified the first day of the week (Sunday) as a special day of worship for Christians. He showed that Christ was raised on the first day; that one of the last acts before his crucifixion was to institute the Lord's Supper, and Christians were commanded to observe this institution. It was then shown that it was the custom of the disciples to assemble on the first day of the week for the purpose of attending to the Lord's Supper; hence the conclusion that the Lord had ordered it.
Burnell made very little argument against this powerful conclusion, but returned to his first proposition with a new effort to show that the law of the lord is still in force.
There are many Adventists in their community and very energetic in their efforts to propagate their doctrine.
