Bible Discussion Thread

a question that concerns me and would like it to be cleared I hear a lot that the Sabbath day was always Saturday until a pope or popes stated they where above Christ and moved the Sabbath to sunday if this was the case why do we go along with this and do wrong in the face of our lord this is a great concern for me and if one will please answer this for me thank you praise god AMEN

Randall, I have always accepted Sunday as the day of worship in line with apostolic & early Church practice. This was not originally a papal edict when he gave this instruction to the RC church, but an apostolic & Church practice that distanced itself from Jewish & other practices. We know that the Lord Jesus rose from the grave on the third day, which was a Sunday ( Mk 16:2,9), the apostles recognized that day also ( Acts 20:7, Jn 20:19), and the early Christians also met on that day ( 1 Cor 16:2: alluding to the Corinthian believers putting aside money so that the poor believers in Jerusalem could receive these gifts, in due course). However, as Rich indicated ( Rom 14:5) that this Day cannot become a dividing issue, or else for example, believers in Islamic countries who can only meet on a Friday, then become reprobate & deserving of damnation! Then again, if we met on the 7th day, are we also prepared to not work, get take away, have folk over for lunch, or fill up with gas! Difficult!

Please read Romans chapter 14 vs 5, it doesn't matter what day just keep a day holy to the Lord and do not forsake assembling with others, you really can't do that now but we watch times square church with Pastor Carter Colon and temple baptist with Pastor Charles Lawson and Pastor Tony Evans, all you can watch on YouTube or livestream, Take care brother
