Why Do Christians Go To Church On Sunday And Not The Sabbath(Saturday) Day by dennisworld1(m): 9:37am On Nov 19, 2017 |
A person's decision concerning sabbath observance probably hinges on the question of how we view the entire Old Testament. If all of it is still binding on us, then so is the sabbath. If there are parts that are no longer binding because they were directed specifically to the Jewish nation, or because they were for ritual purposes, then the sabbath is open for discussion. Only some few churches like seven days Adventist still worship on Saturday Lalasticlacla fp |

Because Jesus resurrected on the first day of the week and the early church gathered on the first day of the week in celebration and remembrance of the resurrection. This is evident throughout the book of Acts ( 1 Cor. 16:2 and Acts 20:7). Acts 20:7 is the clearest verse in the New Testament which indicates that Sunday was the normal meeting day of the apostolic church |

asuustrike2009: The verses did not say they observed sabbat. 1 Cor. 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. Acts 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. As we all know that sabbat are meant for rest and no form of work is permitted on that day. Now here are verses that clearly state sabbat day. Genesis 2:3 Verse Concepts Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made. Psalm 118:24 Verse Concepts This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Exodus 20:8-11 "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. "Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you. read more. Genesis 2:2 By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Exodus 35:2 "For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day you shall have a holy day, a sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any work on it shall be put to death. Deuteronomy 5:12-15 'Observe the sabbath day to keep it holy, as the LORD your God commanded you. 'Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath of the LORD your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter or your male servant or your female servant or your ox or your donkey or any of your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you, so that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. Hebrews 4:9 So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. Exodus 31:17 "It is a sign between Me and the sons of Israel forever; for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day He ceased from labor, and was refreshed." Leviticus 23:3 'For six days work may be done, but on the seventh day there is a sabbath of complete rest, a holy convocation. You shall not do any work; it is a sabbath to the LORD in all your dwellings. Exodus 34:21 "You shall work six days, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during plowing time and harvest you shall rest. Exodus 35:3 "You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath day." Leviticus 23:38 besides those of the sabbaths of the LORD, and besides your gifts and besides all your votive and freewill offerings, which you give to the LORD. Isaiah 56:2 "How blessed is the man who does this, And the son of man who takes hold of it; Who keeps from profaning the sabbath, And keeps his hand from doing any evil." Isaiah 58:13 "If because of the sabbath, you turn your foot From doing your own pleasure on My holy day, And call the sabbath a delight, the holy day of the LORD honorable, And honor it, desisting from your own ways, From seeking your own pleasure And speaking your own word, 2 Kings 4:23 He said, "Why will you go to him today? It is neither new moon nor sabbath." And she said, "It will be well." Isaiah 1:13 "Bring your worthless offerings no longer, Incense is an abomination to Me New moon and sabbath, the calling of assemblies-- I cannot endure iniquity and the solemn assembly. Ezekiel 46:3 "The people of the land shall also worship at the doorway of that gate before the LORD on the sabbaths and on the new moons. Ezekiel 20:13 "But the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness They did not walk in My statutes and they rejected My ordinances, by which, if a man observes them, he will live; and My sabbaths they greatly profaned Then I resolved to pour out My wrath on them in the wilderness, to annihilate them. Ezekiel 22:8 "You have despised My holy things and profaned My sabbaths. Leviticus 24:8 "Every sabbath day he shall set it in order before the LORD continually; it is an everlasting covenant for the sons of Israel. And so many more verses that talked about the sabbath. Sabbath start from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday |

Maamin: Christians worship on Sundays in celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is very important to remember, though, Sunday worship is not commanded in the Bible, and Sunday has not replaced Saturday and become the Christian Sabbath. While the New Testament describes Christians gathering and worshipping on Sundays, it nowhere states that Sunday has replaced Saturday as the Sabbath. They key point in all of this is that we are not to limit our worship to any particular day of the week. We are to rest in the Lord every day. We are to worship the Lord every day. And so in Mark 2:27 And he said to them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath. The sabbath day is not for punishment as God never design it as a burden. It was instituted for the good of mankind. |

Saturday is for the ancient religion Judaism while Sunday is for the new religion Christianity. the Jews practice to Judaism while Jesus brought Christianity to life through the holy Eucharist. I'm speaking in terms of a Catholic |

DerickCO:Are u saying that the God of Judaism is different from that of Christianity? 1 Like |

Sheunma:He is not. The only difference between Judaism and Christianity is that they don't believe in Jesus Christ, only in God and they follow the laws of Moses, while we follow the laws of Jesus Christ. |

dennisworld1: Read Joshua 10:12-14 and you will know why. |

DerickCO: The reason is simple and that because after Joshua suspended the sun and the moon for 24hrs in order to win a battle, a day was minus; the calendar was altered as a result and Sabbath then fall on on a Sunday. "On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on[a] its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day." Joshua 10:12-13 Imagine Joshua made that statement on a Friday because he didn't want to fight on a Sabbath day (Saturday) in order to keep it holy. So those going to church on a Sunday are actually the one keeping the Sabbath day and not those on a Saturday if you do the math. 1 Like |
