SCRIPTURE

"Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; new moon and sabbath, the calling of assemblies,- I cannot away with iniquity and the solemn meeting." — Isaiah 1:13 (ASV)

Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.

If you are hypocrites, if your hearts are not right with God, you may multiply your church-goings, and your chapel-goings, and your sacraments; but all these are only provoking God to anger.

There is nothing in it all that he could possibly accept; he cannot endure it. He says, It is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
