Before we start we must understand that it was prophesied that the Antichrist would change God's Law and God's times. This was going to happen according to what has been revealed to us.
In order for Antichrist to change God's Law and times there has to be a changing of the Scriptures. If people read it in the Scriptures they will believe it. Let me give you an example. The holiday known as (Easter) is totally pagan and has no place in the house of God yet we find the word, Easter was added to the Scriptures to make it acceptable. Listen.
Acts 12:4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
As a result of this we now have Scriptural proof that Easter is from God.
Now let's take a look at Acts:7-13 since these verses are used to help support Sunday observance in place of the seventh day Sabbath.
Acts 20:7-13 Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight. There were many lamps in the upper room where they were gathered together. And in a window sat a certain young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continued speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead. But Paul went down, fell on him, and embracing him said, “Do not trouble yourselves, for his life is in him.” Now when he had come up, had broken bread and eaten, and talked a long while, even till daybreak, he departed. And they brought the young man in alive, and they were not a little comforted. Then we went ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos, there intending to take Paul on board; for so he had given orders, intending himself to go on foot.
The very first sentence begins with the misleading words, “day of the week”. These words, “day of the week” is one word in the Greek and it’s the Strong’s #G4521. These words, “day of the week” is the Greek word, “Sabbaton” which refers to the seventh day Sabbath.
G4521 σάββατον sabbaton (sab'-bat-on) n. the Sabbath (i.e. Shabbath)
What Luke is saying in the first sentence is, “On the first Sabbath when the disciple came together to break bread”. He is not saying the first day.
We find Luke would number the Sabbaths based on what week it was. If it was the second week of the month he would have said, “On the second Sabbath after the first”. Listen.
Luke 6:1 Now it happened on the second Sabbath after the first that He went through the grain fields. And His disciples plucked the heads of grain and ate them, rubbing them in their hands.
Let’s continue.
Luke goes on to say how the disciples met on the first Sabbath and because Paul was leaving the next day (Sunday) he spoke all night.
Here is how Acts 20:7 should read.
Acts 20:7 Now on the first Sabbath, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.
So here we have the disciples gathering together on the Sabbath. Paul, knowing that he was going be leaving the next for his next missionary trip, spoke all night. The next morning (Sunday) he leaves for his trip at sunrise.
Acts 20:11 When Paul had gone back up and had broken the bread and eaten, he talked with them a long while until daybreak, and then left.
Paul leaves for his trip at daybreak Sunday morning. He traveled by ship and by foot all day Sunday. If Sunday was the new day of worship Paul would have been in church preaching the word of God just like he did every Sabbath.
Nowhere in the entire New Testament do you find the early church gathering for sacred assembly on Sunday, the first day. What you do find over and over again is Sabbath assembly.
Luke 23:56 Then they returned and prepared spices and fragrant oils. And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.
Acts 17:2 Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures.
Acts 18:4 And Paul reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Gentiles.
Acts 13:42 So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
Acts 13:44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.
Acts 16:13 And on the Sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither.
Paul gathered in sacred assembly with the church at Corinth every Sabbath for a year and a half before leaving for another journey. That alone is 78 Sabbaths.
Acts 18:4 And Paul reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
Acts 18:11 And Paul continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Let us remove all the leaven out of the Scriptures so that we can be of one mind in the will of God for His people.
