And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on
the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had
rested from all his work which God created and made. Genesis 2:2,3
"Toronto, Oct. 27 - Rev. Philip Carrington,
Anglican Archbishop of Quebec, sent local clergymen into a huddle today by
saying outright that there was nothing to support Sunday being kept
holy.
Carrington defiantly told a church meeting in
this city of straight-laced Protestantism that tradition, not the Bible, had
made Sunday the day of worship.He quoted the biblical commandment which said the seventh day should be one of rest, and then stated: "That is Saturday."
"Nowhere in the Bible is it laid down that worship should be done on Sunday," the Archbishop told a hushed, still audience.
Local parsons read his comments today with set, determined looks. They refused comment"
