📱 eBook en inglés HISTORY OF THE SABBATH AND FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK

History of the Sabbath and First Day of the Week is a religious book by Seventh-day Adventist minister John Nevins Andrews about the practice of observing the Sabbath in seventh-day churches. According to the Bible, the Sabbath is a day of rest on the seventh day, commanded by God to be kept as a holy day of rest, as God rested from creation. The seventh-day Sabbath, observed from Friday evening to Saturday evening, is an important part of the beliefs and practices of seventh-day churches. These churches emphasize biblical references such as the ancient Hebrew practice of beginning a day at sundown, and the Genesis creation narrative wherein an "evening and morning" established a day, predating the giving of the Ten Commandments. Seventh-day Adventist Church traditionally holds that the apostate church formed when the Bishop of Rome began to dominate the west and brought heathen corruption and allowed pagan idol worship and beliefs to come in, and formed the Roman Catholic Church, which teaches traditions over Scripture, and to rest from their work on Sunday, instead of Sabbath, which is not in keeping with Scripture.
