Question 1
Whether the seventh day sabbath is of, or made known to, man by the law and light of nature?

Question 2
Whether the seventh day sabbath, as to man's keeping of it holy, was ever made known to, or imposed by,
a positive precept upon him until the time of Moses? which from Adam was about two thousand years.

Question 3
Whether, when the seventh day sabbath was given to Israel in the wilderness, the Gentiles, as such, was concerned therein.

Question 4
Whether the seventh day sabbath did not fall, as such, with the rest of the Jewish rites and ceremonies?
Or whether that day, as a sabbath, was afterwards by the apostles imposed upon the churches of the Gentiles?

Question 5 Since it is denied that the seventh day sabbath is moral, and it is found that it is not to abide as a sabbath for ever in the church,
What time is to be fixed on for New Testament saints to perform together, divine worship to God by Christ in?
