the sabbath day
If you can show me one place where there was a Christian meeting after the resurrection on the Sabbath,
I'd be interested in seeing it. I can produce several where the church met on the first day of the week.
.
can you explain how man can make a day holy ?,
and do away with Gods Holy days at the same time,
can you show a verse that makes it unholy?
-since we know you will not answer my questions, I
will show you that there is 8 places in the new testement that have (the first day of the week)
lets see if God changed the day in any of them verses.
none of the verses below changes the 7th day to 1st day worship,
is not a commanded day of worship, this was a normal [work day] for people.
Joh 20:1 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was (yet dark),
unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.
John tells use that while it was (still dark), Mary found the tomb empty.
this was not a sunrise service at all, he was allready gone from there.
believing a good friday to sunday would make Christ a false prophet.
in the earth at dusk, 3 days 3 nights later is resurrection just after dusk.
Joh 20:19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week,
when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews,
came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
the doors locked, assembled fear of there lives,was not a day of rest, a work day.
nothing here in verse changes the sabbath day, or not a religious meeting.
Ac 20:7 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together
to break bread,Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow;
and continued his speech until midnight.
first breaking bread is not a religious service, it is eating a meal.
second this verse records what happened on that one day only,
not a new command to in any way change the sabbath to the first day.
also at most times the apostles lived or stayed and ate together,
and they went house to house everyday of the week.
but every Sabbath they went to a place for worship to be had.
this verse we see the 7th day sabbath has just ended,
it gets dark and they are eating a meal, paul continues to preach.
this now is a regularwork day,pauls companions had set sail around penisula,
Paul was going to walk those miles, at first lite, on first day of week.
11When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten,
and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.
if now is a 1st day sabbath, why are they working on that day.
Paul , like Jesus custom was, preached on the 7th day sabbath about 83 times,
also working as tent maker, keeping sabbath for year and half.
so far we see no command or change in the sabbath day, the last verse
1Co 16:2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store,
as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come
this was not a religious sabbath meeting, it was a regular work day.
1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order
to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
there was a famine in Jerusalem, Paul was collecting food for the saints
4And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
Paul needed help carring heavy stuff like meat,
he would need no help if it was for money.
the church has made unknow amounts of money because of this verse.
one more verse to look at to see if changed sabbath
John sees the lords day in a future vision, no day of week even mentioned.
and the false church changed the lords day to sunday, her authority alone.
Revelation 14:12 (KJV)
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they
that keep [the commandments of God], [and] the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 22:14 (KJV)
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life,
and may enter in through the gates into the city.
