About This Book
The author mounts a moral and theological critique of proposals to conduct postal operations on Sundays, arguing that obedience to the Sabbath requires abstaining from such public services despite asserted conveniences or small financial savings. He challenges utilitarian reasoning and an official minute that balances civic profit against religious obligation, accusing proponents of treating divine command as negotiable and urging leaders to retract endorsements that legitimize neglect of duty. The pamphlet combines doctrinal argument, rebuttal of practical claims about staffing and savings, and a call for conscientious public example and repentance.
