The Case Against Saturday Blue Laws

Résumé du livre

Roland Hegstad attended a Lord's Day Alliznce meeting. During a break in the program he fell into a discussion with one of its leaders over Seventh-day Adventist opposition to Sunday blue laws. The Lord's Day Alliance leader challenged him, "If we were trying to get everyone to keep your Sabbath - Saturday - you'd do everything you could to help us push Saturday blue laws." "Oh, no, we wouldn't!" Hegstad replied, but he had no way of demonstrating his conviction. Now, however, he can, because a leading evangelical leader, Harold Lindsell, shortly thereafter made just such a serious proposal, and Seventh-day Adventists responded in exactly the way Hegstad said they would. This book delineates the reasons why Adventists reacted as they did, the interesting background to Lindsell's proposal, and the stir it caused in the religious press. Because the authors actively participated in the dialogue, they can provide a firsthand account of the discussion and share their conviction as to its significance. - The Case Against Saturday Blue Laws.
