With the majority of the world honoring Sunday as the Lord's there must be dozens of verses to support this belief.
Can anyone here show me just one verse that says Sunday is Lord's day or that the seventh day Sabbath was changed to Sunday, first day? Just one!
You will not find one because there are none. What a powerful testimony of Sunday observance being a doctrine and tradition of man.
Matthew 15:3 He answered and said to them, “Why do you also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition?
Matthew 15:9 And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ”
Mark 7:7 And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
Now lets see what the Bible says about the seventh day being the Lord's day.
Leviticus 23:3 You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of complete rest, an official day for sacred assembly. It is the Lord's Sabbath day, and it must be observed wherever you live.
Exodus 20:1 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.
Deuteronomy 5:14 but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God.
Jesus is even called, Lord of the Sabbath, which makes the seventh day Sabbath the Lord's day.
Mark 2:28 Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”
Jesus didn't have tell us which day was the Sabbath nor did He have to command anyone to honor it because they already were.
Did the Apostles change the day to Sunday? No they did not. Paul gather every Sabbath years after the resurrection of Jesus. At one point the Gentiles begged Paul to teach them again the next Sabbath. Again, keep in mind that this was years after the resurrection of Jesus.
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.
The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered together in sacred assembly to hear the word of God.
Acts 13:44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.
If the seventh day was changed to the first day this would have been a perfect opportunity for Paul to say something, but he didn't. Why wait a whole week to teach the Gentiles again? If Sunday was the new day for sacred assembly Paul could have just told the Gentiles to come back the next day, which would have been Sunday? But he didn't. Also, notice how the Gentiles called the seventh day, the Sabbath. Remember, this was years after Jesus' resurrection.
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.
The Gentiles must of went out witnessing and inviting people to Sabbath fellowship because the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.
Acts 13:44 On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.
The fact that all these Gentiles were gathering on the Sabbath day, to hear the word of God, made the Jews mad.
Acts 13:44-45 On the next Sabbath day, almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God. When the Jews saw the multitues, they became very jealous and began to say evil things against what Paul was saying.
Why would the Jews get mad at the fact the Gentiles were gathering on the Sabbath? Probably because they refused to accept the fact that the Sabbath was made for all mankind, not just the Jews.
Mark 2:27 Jesus said to them, “The Sabbath was made for mankind".
Paul gathered in sacred assembly with the church at Corinth every Sabbath for a year and a half before leaving for his next journey. That alone is 78 Sabbaths and again keep in mind how this was years after Jesus' resurrection.
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.
Jesus gave a prophecy of the destruction of Jerusalem, which was to take place forty years after His resurrection, and He was still confirming the Sabbath. Listen.
Matthew 24:19-21 But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Prior to Paul's conversion he would, on every Sabbath, go from one synagogue after another pulling early believers out of their assembly to beat them and imprison them.
Acts 9:2 and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
Acts 22:19 And I said, ‘Lord, they themselves know that in one synagogue after another I imprisoned and beat those who believed in you.
The followers of Jesus even kept the Sabbath after Jesus died.
Luke 23:56 Then they returned and prepared spices and fragrant oils. And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.
If Jesus did away with the Sabbath or changed it to another day His followers surely would have known this. Honoring the seventh day Sabbath is even mentioned as being part of the new heavens and the new earth.
Isaiah 66:22-23 “For as the new heavens and the new earth which I will make shall remain before Me,” says the Lord, “So shall your descendants and your name remain. And it shall come to pass that from one New Moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says the Lord.
Now show me where the Bible says Sunday is the Lord's day.
