The Lord's Day Law Controversy in a Christian State
A defender of the Lord's Day laws argues they secure public worship and tolerance for Protestants while condemning a critic who calls penal statutes oppressive. The piece rebuts the notion that compulsory attendance violates toleration, insisting laws align with Christian principle and that free-thinking or Catholic or unbeliever challenges threaten religious order. It defends penalties for those who neglect worship and emphasizes constitutional limits and liberty within a Christian framework.
