Did the Catholic Church "Change the Sabbath"?

- www.SecretInfoC... You sometimes encounter the charge that the Catholic Church wrongly "changed the sabbath" from Saturday to Sunday. This claim is often made by Seventh-Day Adventists, for example. But even if one isn't accusing the Church of wrongdoing, the question can still arise: Why do Catholics worship on Sunday rather than Saturday? Here's the story . . .
What Day the Sabbath Is
First, let's clear away a potential source of confusion. While it's true that people sometimes speak of Sunday as "the Christian sabbath," this is a loose way of speaking. Strictly speaking, the sabbath is the day it always was--Saturday--though it should be noted that traditionally Jewish people have celebrated the sabbath from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday. Sunday is a distinct day, which follows the sabbath. The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains:
2175 Sunday is expressly distinguished from the sabbath which it follows chronologically every week; for Christians its ceremonial observance replaces that of the sabbath. In Christ's Passover, Sunday fulfills the spiritual truth of the Jewish sabbath and announces man's eternal rest in God. For worship under the Law prepared for the mystery of Christ, and what was done there prefigured some aspects of Christ.
Why We Celebrate Sunday
That same paragraph explains why we celebrate on Sunday. For Christians the ceremonial observance of Sunday replaces that of the sabbath. Properly speaking, we're not celebrating the sabbath on Sunday. We're celebrating something else, but it's something that the sabbath points toward. As the Catechism says, the Jewish sabbath announces man's eternal rest in God and prefigures some aspects of Christ. Sunday thus fulfills what the sabbath pointed toward.
The Didache
"But every Lord’s day . . . gather yourselves together and break bread, and give thanksgiving after having confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned" (Didache 14 [A.D. 70]).
The Letter of Barnabas
"We keep the eighth day [Sunday] with joyfulness, the day also on which Jesus rose again from the dead" (Letter of Barnabas 15:6-8 [A.D. 74]).
Ignatius of Antioch
"[T]hose who were brought up in the ancient order of things [i.e. Jews] have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath, but living in the observance of the Lord’s day, on which also our life has sprung up again by him and by his death" (Letter to the Magnesians 8 [A.D. 110]).
Justin Martyr
"[W]e too would observe the fleshly circumcision, and the Sabbaths, and in short all the feasts, if we did not know for what reason they were enjoined [on] you-namely, on account of your transgressions and the hardness of your heart. . . . [H]ow is it, Trypho, that we would not observe those rites which do not harm us-I speak of fleshly circumcision and Sabbaths and feasts? . . . God enjoined you to keep the Sabbath, and imposed on you other precepts for a sign, as I have already said, on account of your unrighteousness and that of your fathers . . ." (Dialogue with Trypho the Jew 18, 21 [A.D. 155]).
"But Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Savior on the same day rose from the dead" (First Apology 67 [A.D. 155]).
Tertullian
"[L]et him who contends that the Sabbath is still to be observed as a balm of salvation, and circumcision on the eighth day . . . teach us that, for the time past, righteous men kept the Sabbath or practiced circumcision, and were thus rendered ‘friends of God.’ For if circumcision purges a man, since God made Adam uncircumcised, why did he not circumcise him, even after his sinning, if circumcision purges? . . . Therefore, since God originated Adam uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, consequently his offspring also, Abel, offering him sacrifices, uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, was by him [God] commended [Gen. 4:1-7, Heb. 11:4]. . . . Noah also, uncircumcised-yes, and unobservant of the Sabbath-God freed from the deluge. For Enoch too, most righteous man, uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, he translated from this world, who did not first taste death in order that, being a candidate for eternal life, he might show us that we also may, without the burden of the law of Moses, please God" (An Answer to the Jews 2 [A.D. 203]).
The Didascalia
"The apostles further appointed: On the first day of the week let there be service, and the reading of the holy scriptures, and the oblation [sacrifice of the Mass], because on the first day of the week [i.e., Sunday] our Lord rose from the place of the dead, and on the first day of the week he arose upon the world, and on the first day of the week he ascended up to heaven, and on the first day of the week he will appear at last with the angels of heaven" (Didascalia 2 [A.D. 225]).
Origen
"Hence it is not possible that the [day of] rest after the Sabbath should have come into existence from the seventh [day] of our God. On the contrary, it is our Savior who, after the pattern of his own rest, caused us to be made in the likeness of his death, and hence also of his resurrection" (Commentary on John 2:28 [A.D. 229]).
‘“It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and all other Christians, that the Bible does not support them anywhere in their observance of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church.” Priest Brady, in an address, reported in the Elizabeth, NJ ‘News’ on March 18, 1903.
“Protestants … accept Sunday rather than Saturday as the day for public worship after the Catholic Church made the change… But the Protestant mind does not seem to realize that … in observing Sunday, they are accepting the authority of the spokesman for the Church, the pope.” Our Sunday Visitor, February 5th, 1950.
Deny the authority of the Church and you have no adequate or reasonable explanation or justification for the substitution of Sunday for Saturday in the Third - Protestant Fourth - Commandment of God… The Church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact.” Catholic Record, September 1, 1923.
The Faith of Milions“But since Saturday, not Sunday, is specified in the Bible, isn’t it curious that non-Catholics who profess to take their religion directly from the Bible and not the Church, observe Sunday instead of Saturday? Yes, of course, it is inconsistent; but this change was made about fifteen centuries before Protestantism was born, and by that time the custom was universally observed. They have continued the custom, even though it rests upon the authority of the Catholic Church and not upon an explicit text in the Bible. That observance remains as a reminder of the Mother Church from which the non-Catholic sects broke away - like a boy running away from home but still carrying in his pocket a picture of his mother or a lock of her hair.”The Faith of Millions
“Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. “The Day of the Lord” (dies Dominica) was chosen, not from any directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church’s sense of its own power. The day of resurrection, the day of Pentecost, fifty days later, came on the first day of the week. So this would be the new Sabbath. People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy.” Sentinel, Pastor’s page, Saint Catherine Catholic Church, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995
“If Protestants would follow the Bible, they would worship God on the Sabbath Day. In keeping the Sunday they are following a law of the Catholic Church.” Albert Smith, Chancellor of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, replying for the Cardinal, in a letter dated February 10, 1920.
“The observance of Sunday by the Protestants is homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the [Catholic] Church.” Monsignor Louis Segur, ‘Plain Talk about the Protestantism of Today’, p. 213.
Soooo, all these admissions from different priests and cardinals of the Catholic Church are wrong? Sureeeee............
How about we obey what God wrote in stone with His finger at mount Sinai and now is written on our hearts the Ten Commandments..the fourth commandment says we are to remember to keep the sabbath day holy. It's not a suggestion it's a command. Jesus kept the sabbath as did his apostles even in the book of acts 40 yrs after He ascended to the Father the apostles were keeping the sabbath. We are to obey God not mans traditions.. Yeshua/Jesus had already risen from the dead and was gone by the time the women got to the tomb why? Because He rose on the Sabbath.. we must stop taking a verse out of context and building a doctrine around it... Yeshua/Jesus says in John 7:16-" my doctrine is not mine but His who sent Me...Yeshua always preached as did His disciples " repent" if you love me you will keep my commandments...
He didn't actually say doctrine, he said teaching which is a huge difference." my teaching is not mine but his who sent me; if any mans will is to do his will, he shall know whether the teaching is from God or whether i am speaking on my own authority."
WRONG- SHE GOT TO THE TOMB AFTER SUNDOWN AND JUST BEFORE SUN UP SUNDAY. THE SABBATH HAD ENDED SUNDOWN THE PREVIOUS NIGHT..First, let's clear away a potential source of confusion. While it's true that people sometimes speak of Sunday as "the Christian sabbath," this is a loose way of speaking. Strictly speaking, the sabbath is the day it always was--Saturday--though it should be noted that traditionally Jewish people have celebrated the sabbath from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday. Sunday is a distinct day, which follows the sabbath.
AMEN SISTER!!!!
how about u read 2 Corinthians 3:7-11
why dont we do both instead of bickering over which day is more important both a very important days and should be respected and honored,
"And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, And from one Sabbath to another, Shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord."
(Isaiah 66:23)
wrong again!
keep doing what you are doing...you have found the true Sabbath. Kudos
@@nickdon Nope
How do you keep the Idea of worshipping from one new moon to another. Check Colossians 2v 16. Read it my dear.
dude READ THE HOLY BIBLE. nowhere does it say to honor the first day of the week. You are under strong deception.
And Saturday sabbath is not under the ceremonial law. Exodus 20:8 clearly says that Sabbath was only day that sanctified by God.
@John Rueffer
You are adding to scriptures to fit your belief system.
SunDay is sun worship because Constantin was a know sun worshiper and he is the one who sanctified Sunday worship for Christians long ago.
If a person unknowingly drinks poison they don't have to know its poison for it to kill them. The bible states that the road to hell is paved by people with good intentions so the law and understanding why things were written is very important.
Yahoshua didn't come to change the law. Christians did that so since the bible clearly says anyone who adds or takes away from this book is in danger you must question your motives.
The society you speak was always "godless". Christianity was spread through violence not peace. African slaves were forced to take a religion. American Indians were forced to take a religion. You aren't looking at history with unbiased eyes to understand how this religion became what it is.
Peer-dependent-Christians tend to take a mark that wasn't what the Creator was referring to in Deuteronomy 6 and Exodus 13. Many of us Christians are like leftist-Supreme-Court-Justices, making the Bible say whatever they want it to say. Not "opposed" (maybe grieved) that Christians keep the pagan Sunday/so-called-"Lord's Day." Indeed, teaching lies is a pretty clever satanic tactic! If Christians would observe the Feasts of the LORD / YHWH instead of the man-made-pagan-other-gods'-holidays (Christmass, Eastermass, Halloween, etc), they would know about the Feast of Weeks; there is no word "day" in the Scriptures to which Akin refers; it says the first of the weeks in the Greek. The Sabbath was made for man, so really, let's not throw it away and tell "His Church" to follow another set of Testimonies/Instructions. Teaching that Christians are no longer obliged to keep the Sabbath? Then likewise, are they not "obliged" to not murder; yet many "Chrsitian" churches adamantly support the chopping up of preborn babies. Are Christian is no longer "obliged" to keep marriage sacred; many "Christian" churches now redefine & "satanify" marriage). The USA is under judgment. And why does the Pope have a wall around his house?
@@Opinlinz what u just said is utter nonsense my friend.
SUNday which u referred to is no different that SATURNday, these days where named by the Roman's off the sky.
Constantine was not a sun worshiper, if he was than you have to provide authentic sources...non of which u can.
Secondly it's a historical fact that Christian's kept the first day which they called lords day more than 200 years before Constantine's mother was even born...so what are u talking about?
Lastly who on earth is Yahoshua? If u gonna come here acting smart than at least spell his name correctly.
Ignorance!
@@mattjestic1
Firstly Hebrews didn't use names like Saturday or Sunday.
The days are counted as numbers.
Secondly if you knew the language and had any understanding of who the Hebrews worshipped maybe then you wouldn't ask such a foolish question about "who on Earth is Yahoshua"
The term "HalleluYAH" means to praise YAH.
Ya-houshua means salvation is through YAH.
In the bible it literally says "I am called by my FATHER's NAME" .. and last time I checked the individual we are speaking about was a Hebrew not a Christian
Lastly I don't have to provide you sources about Constitine. You have access to a computer so don't be lazy and study just like I did. Its known that Roman's were pagan worshipers so save your lies for someone else.
You are correct about ignorance but it clearly shows its coming from you.
Now if you want to have a respectful conversation, try coming at someone with a different energy.
@@italianoetnico.calabreseve9262
Exodus 20 v8
"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy"
Those commandments were from the CREATOR not man so putting a verse that Paul said doesn't negate anything. Furthermore you should read the entire chapter and understand why he said it.
Jimmy Akin is very correct!!!
IMMORTALSOULS, , HES WRONG!!! PLEASE DONT BE DECIEVED HES MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE, THE CATHOLIC CHURCH EVEN ADMITTED IT THEY CHANGED IT ON PURPOSE!!!!! ITS CALLED SUNDAY LAW!!! BEHEADING CHRISTAINS DOOR TOO DOOR ROUNDUPS OBAMA BOUGHT 33 THOUSAND GILLOTAINS AND STORED THEM AT MILITARY BASES YOUR BEING AMBUSHED ,THEY SENT OUR TROOPS OVERS SEAS SO THEY CANT HELP US FROM THE SHADOW GOVERMENT SUNDAY LAW IS COMING ASK I TYPE ,PLEASE DONT FALL FOR IT ,GOD SAID UNTIL HEAVEN PASS AND THE EARTH TOO WE ARE TO OBEY BY.....LOVE AND FAITH NOT BY LAW AND IF IT WASENT A BAD THING THEN WHY ARE THEY ENFORCING IT ,FEMA CAMPS DEATH BY GILLOTAINS GO CHECK IT OUT RIGHT HERE ON RUclips SUNDAY LAW SUN WORSHIP SATANS DAY,HEAVEN AND EARTH ARE STILL HERE RITE SO GOD WASENT PLAYING WHEN HE SAID KEEP MY DAY THE SABBATH HOLY BUT THEY CHANGED IT IN1883 THE CHURCH,HAS FALLEN IN TOO SIN!!!! PLEASE I CARE I REALLY DO CARE ABOUT ALL MY BROTHERS
Jimmy is a lier
I really see this as a non-issue. The Mosaic law includes every command given by God to the Israelites - including the Ten Commandments. These were in effect for a time, but Jesus came and fulfilled them - freeing us from its bonds. A New Covenant was given: to believe in the Son, and to love one another. This - and the minimum required actions put forth by the Magisterium of the Church - is what is required to get to Heaven.
I used to be the same way. It comes from a good place, because we all want to please God. But keeping the law is impossible for us - which is why Jesus was the only one who could do it. The Law can't be reduced to certain specific commands each person thinks they should keep. Biblically speaking, it is all one and the same, "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all".
Transgression of one command - regardless of which one - is a transgression of the whole law. So if you keep the Sabbath, you have to keep the whole law perfectly - which, as it turns out, means Jesus came for nothing.
The Old Covenant is full of wisdom, revelation and good; used primarily now for teaching virtue. Every part of it points to Christ and the New Testament. The way we believe in Christ and love our neighbour is to spiritually align our hearts and understand the purpose of Christ and The Cross. If we try and keep the Law - in any way shape or form - we don't believe in Christ; because we still don't understand why he came.
Peace.
Did the Catholic Church "Change the Sabbath"? Yes, Here are some Catholic sources.
These quotes from Catholic sources contradict what The Catechism of the Catholic Church says about the origin of Sunday worship.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church says Sunday worship is found in the New Testament, but these Catholic sources say otherwise.
VATICAN ADMITS SUNDAY IS THEIR MARK!
"Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change (Saturday Sabbath to Sunday) was her act... And the act is a MARK of her ecclesiastical authority in religious things." H.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons. Nov. 11, 1895
"Sunday is our MARK or authority. . .the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact" Catholic Record of London, Ontario Sept 1,1923.
( I wonder what the MARK of the Beast is? )
"The Sunday...is purely a creation of the Catholic Church." American Catholic Quarterly Review, January 1883
"Sunday...It is the law of the Catholic Church alone..." American Sentinel (Catholic) June 1893
"The Catholic church," declared Cardinal Gibbons, "by virtue of her divine mission changed the day from Saturday to Sunday." Catholic Mirror Sept. 23 1983. (Official organ of Cardinal Gibbons)
“The authority of the church could therefore not be bound to the authority of the Scriptures, because the Church had changed the Sabbath into Sunday, not by command of Christ, but by its own authority.” Canon and Tradition, p. 263
“Is not every Christian obliged to sanctify Sunday and to abstain on that day from unnecessary servile work? Is not the observance of this law among the most prominent of our sacred duties? But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify.” -James Cardinal Gibbons, The Faith of Our Fathers (1917 ed.), pp. 72, 73.
“The Bible says, Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day. The Catholic church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath day, and command you to keep the first day of the week. And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic church!” Father Enright, C.S.S.R. of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, History of the Sabbath, p. 802
"Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. "The day of the Lord" was chosen, not from any direction noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church's sense of its own power .... People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become Seventh-day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy." (Saint Catherine Church Sentinel, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995.)
"Sunday is a Catholic institution and its claim to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles .... From beginning to end of Scripture there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first." (Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia, August, 1990.)
But there is something still wanting to a full statement of the untenable position taken up by those sticklers for "Sabbath" observance. What right, anyhow, have these gentlemen as Protestants to lay down the law as to what is to be done or not done on Sunday? Sunday is a Catholic institution, and its claims to observance can be defended only on Catholic principles. If the "Bible and the Bible only is the religion of Protestants," if "whatever is not read therein nor maybe proved thereby" has no claim on their faith or observance, what scrap of title can they show for all their dogmatic insistence as to the requirements of the Lord's Day? From beginning to end of Scripture there is not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first. Thus Sunday observance is an incongruous adjunct of the Protestant faith, utterly out of keeping with its fundamental principle, and strongly suggests a religion that suffered sadly from too much hurry in the making.
If any Sabbatarian wants to know the proper method of spending the Sunday, the Catholic Church is the natural source to apply to for information. Under her direction the Sunday supplanted the Jewish Sabbath, and she is, therefore, the best fitted to settle any dispute as to its claims. Source: The Bible Echo, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Vol. 15, No. 42, Oct. 15, 1900, page 674, quoting The Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia, Aug. 25, 1900.
The Word of God says:
Daniel 7:25, "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and THINK TO CHANGE TIMES AND LAWS: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."
The word of Rome says:
"The Pope has the power to CHANGE TIMES, to ABROGATE LAWS, and to dispense with all things, even the precepts of Christ." "The Pope has the authority and often exercised it, to dispense with the COMMAND of Christ." -Decretal, de Tranlatic Episcop. Cap. (The Pope can modify divine law.) Ferraris' Ecclesiastical Dictionary.
Sunday does not fulfills what the sabbath pointed toward.
The Sabbath points towards God as creator. To sanctified it means God made the seventh day Sabbath Holy. He did not make in anyway Sunday a sanctified or holy day. The day of the Lord the seventh day Sabbath was established by God to worship Him as Creator. This is the reason for the Day of the Lord. The seventh day Sabbath.
The Saturday Sabbath is a time and a law. It is the fourth law of the Ten Commandments.
The Ten Commandments show the character of God.
Malachi 3:6 “For I am the Lord, I do not change".
Isaiah 8:20 "To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them".
I went to the website you posted, and it says that it was Constantine who changed the day of worship to Sunday? That's interesting because historical documents show that as far back as the year 70 A.D. the Church was worshipping on the Lords' Day. St Ignatius of Antioch (who was St John's disciple) also mentions in one of his writings that it is the Lords' Day that is the day of worship, and this was in 110 A.D. This was during the time when Rome was still persecuting the Church.
The Lord`s Day you are referring to is, in fact, the Sabbath......allow me.....Mark 2: 27And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: 28Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath........it`s very clear that the holy Sabbath of Creation, is the Lord`s day.......who had the audacity to try to change it? Ask the Holy Spirit to open your eyes, then watch this....ruclips.net/video/u7Q9FSXquQg/видео.htmlsi=x0XqB2F4PRtTsB4l.......it`s all there
Im not an adventist."The [Roman Catholic] Church changed the observance of the Sabbath to Sunday by right of the divine, infallible authority given to her by her founder, Jesus Christ. The Protestant, claiming the Bible to be the only guide of faith, has no warrant for observing Sunday. In this matter the Seventh-day Adventist is the only consistent Protestant." The Catholic Universe Bulletin, August 14, 1942, p. 4
I’ve been in the SDA church for 25 years and they like to say John was speaking about the Sabbath when he wrote “The Lord’s Day” but I have always wondered why he wouldn’t just write “the Sabbath” if that’s what he was talking about? And why would God wait until the 1840s to tell someone the Sabbath needed to followed by Christians if it’s supposedly the thing that marks God’s true followers apart from the anti-Christ.
But, it is worth noting that observing the Sabbath is commanded in the Decalogue and we never suggest the other nine are changed or invalid, but the Sabbath command is. The weekly Sabbath points forward to Christ, but it also very specifically points back to the creation in its text
paragraph 1 - those who did keep the 7th day Sabbath were murdered by this 'church' - but there were always Sabbath keepers.
He didn't wait until the 1840's - there were always Sabbatarians.
and you're right - all Ten are equally important - as Jesus shows us in Matt 5:19 and Luke 16:17.
hope the Sabbath was a blessing today, Sir!
Satan has always changed God's instructions so that many will be destroyed with him, Isaiah 58:13 tells us the Sabbath is the Lord's holy day , please be guided by scriptures not men's understanding
The Lord's Day is Saturday, not Sunday. The bible clearly says that Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath! Matthew 12:8, Mark 2:28, and Luke 6:5
Some religious organizations (Seventh-day Adventists, Seventh-Day Baptists, and certain others) claim that Christians must not worship on Sunday but on Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath. They claim that, at some unnamed time after the apostolic age, the Church "changed" the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday.
However, passages of Scripture such as Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 16:2, Colossians 2:16-17, and Revelation 1:10 indicate that, even during New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and that Christians are to worship on the Lord’s day, Sunday, instead.
The early Church Fathers compared the observance of the Sabbath to the observance of the rite of circumcision, and from that they demonstrated that if the apostles abolished circumcision (Gal. 5:1-6), so also the observance of the Sabbath must have been abolished. The following quotations show that the first Christians understood this principle and gathered for worship on Sunday.
Sabbath is not Jewish. It is God's appointed time. One law for all. It was given at creation before a Jewish nation.
Acts 20:7 does not even mention the sabbath, that verse talks about breaking bread. 1 corinthians 16:2 is addressing the collection of the saints, not the sabbath. If you read 1 corinthians 16:1 which is the verse before the one you quoted, it states regarding the collections of the saints, yet nothing about the sabbath. Collosians 2:16 is reffering to the annual jewish festive sabbaths given to us after the fall of man, however the weekly sabbath was established before the fall of man in genesis 2:3, and it was sanctified and blessed. The annual jewish festive sabbaths found in leviticus chaptets 23 and 25 where given to us after the fall of man and are different from the weekly sabbath. Revelation 1:10 does not even state that sunday is the lords day, that is just an assumption made because apaprently Jesus rose from the dead on sunday, yet he rested on the sabbath in his death. The lords day is the seventh day because it was blesssed and sanctified by God in genesis 2:3 while sunday was not, as well as in isaiah 58:13 God calls the sabbath his holy day. Not once did he call sunday a holy day or the day of the lord. Circumsission was part of the mosaic law, the weekly sabbath are commandments, while we are not bound to the mosaic law, we are bound to the ten commandments which jesus himself followed and told us to follow in john 15:10 as well as in john 14:21. The first christians like paul and the disciples worshipped on saturday all throughout acts, it even mentions that it was pauls custom in acts 17:2, as well as the custom of Jesus in luke 4:16. The 4th commandment is the only commandment that starts with the words “remember”.
That's Right Brother continue to spread the word of God and the truth

Soooo, all these admissions from different priests and cardinals of the Catholic Church are wrong? Sureeeee............
We should never give up remembering the Sabbath day, it's one of the 10 commandments, also it starts with "REMEMBER", yet many have forgotten.
The New Testament says to let no one hold you to sabbath days. Jesus fulfilled the sabbath. The first Christians met on the Lord's Day, Sunday, the day of the resurrection.
You are so wrong and will regret living such a way and teach others. Repent and read your Bible.
Those sabath days were not the ones in the 10 commandments, they were ritual sabath days, not the seventh day of the week. God clearly says that the seventh day is the day we must observe, also Jesus keep the sabath but, when did God or Jesus demanded the observance of the first day of the week? The observance of sunday is a man commandment not God's
This teacher got it all wrong. The "first day of the week" is the first day of the week of week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. This is from Leviticus 23, the Feast of Weeks. The Feast of Weeks begins at First Fruits/Resurrection Day as Day 1 of the 49. Look very close at 1 Corinthians 16 and Acts 20, just after we read the "first day of the week" we soon read Pentecost. Pentecost is Day 50, the day after Day 49 of Weeks. "Church" day was changed because of a horrible misinterpretation. Crazy!!! We need to all be Bereans.
@@italianoetnico.calabreseve9262 Awesome Scripture!!! I am not judging. The Sabbath and 7 Feasts/Holy Convocations from Leviticus 23 all point to Jesus Christ. His 7 Feast Work equals our Eternal Sabbath Rest!!! Hallelujah!!! Check out the Amazon book, The 7 Feasts of a Highly Effective God.

I would think your comment is in jest,
Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath. So the Sabbath (Saturday) is the Lord's Day, NOT Sunday. Do you really believe that any man or church has the right to change the Holy Law of God? There is not a single reference in the New Testament that Christ changed the Sabbath. Why would He change His perfect Law?
Chris Theron Jesus rose from the dead on the first day of the week. Sunday The lords day God bless
Correct but what has that to do with keeping the Sabbath? There is not a single reference in the whole Bible where God instructs us to keep the first day of the week nor that He has changed the Ten Commandments. There is also no instruction to keep any day in remembrance of His resurrection. We do celebrate Easter Sunday once a year. Baptism is the closest we get in symbolizing the resurrection. Anyway can we be so bold as to unilaterally change God's Law and a day He made Holy? Mark 7:7 clearly states that we worship Him in vain keeping as doctrine the commandments of men. God Bless

The truth of the matter bottom line here is the Sabbath is a holy day sanctified and set aside for holy use. Sunday is not a holy day and is meant for common use. The Catholics turned this around and substituted a common day, Sunday, for holy use and blasphemed Gods Holy Sabbath day and causes the christian world to use a Holy day Saturday the Sabbath for common use. This is the devils plan.

If "the Son of Man is the Lord of the Sabbath" wouldn't that make the Sabbath the Lord's Day and not Sunday?
Sabbatarian Muslim just because Jesus has authority over the Sabbath (because he’s God) does not mean the Lord’s Day is the Sabbath, and distinctions are made in the Bible, and along with tradition, we know the Sabbath is not binding and celebrate the Lord’s Day.
Whenever you see "the first day of the week" always keep in mind the 7 Feasts/Holy Convocations from Leviticus 23. There were 3 Feast Weeks that were mandatory for all Hebrew males (Exodus 23, 34 and Deuteronomy 16). The 3 were Tabernacles (Sukkot), Unleavened Bread and Weeks. Weeks was 7 Weeks of 7 or 49 Days. The next Day was Pentecost, Day 50. You mentioned Acts 20:7, this was the "first day of the Week" of Week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7, how do we know that? Look at Acts 20 verse 16, we see Pentecost listed there. Another Verse is 1 Corinthians 16:2, same thing here, look at 1 Corinthians 16:8, there is Pentecost again. The most classic is after the Resurrection. Jesus Rose on the "first day of the Week" of Week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. First Fruits is Day 1 of the 49. He appeared for 49 Days during Weeks. Read Acts 1 and 2, count backwards from Pentecost morning, there is a Sabbath's Day journey (about a 1,000 yards) then we are at Day 49 at the Ascension.
All festivals are celebrated for eight days .
The reason for this is because biblically speaking seven days is a cycle yet no seven day period is complete until the eighth day and it is mandatory from the Bible .
Jesus Christ is the beginning and the end ...
Let me give some examples .
The Passover is for seven days yet the Passover is only officially over after the wave offering of first fruits on the Sunday after feast of unleavened bread.
So to break it down .
The first day of Passover is a Sunday and the Bible declares the first Sunday a Sabbath day .
Then Passover is only over on the eighth day at the festival of first fruits .
So the beginning is Sunday and ends on Sunday .
This is why Jews celebrate for eight days .
And this is what makes Jesus Lord of the Sabbath , because he personally begins and ends Every seven day cycle .
Eight days is because we go from Sabbath to Sabbath. As far as the "first day of the week" it is the first day of the week of week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. This is from Leviticus 23, the Feast of Weeks. The Feast of Weeks begins at First Fruits/Resurrection Day as Day 1 of the 49. Look very close at 1 Corinthians 16 and Acts 20, just after we read the "first day of the week" we soon read Pentecost. Pentecost is Day 50, the day after Day 49 of Weeks. "Church" day was changed because of a horrible misinterpretation. Crazy!!! We need to all be Bereans.
All of the confrontations between Jesus and the Jews concerning the Sabbath had nothing to do with whether the Sabbath should be kept but rather HOW it should be kept. Large passages of new testament scripture are devoted to clearing up the turmoil that the cancellation of circumcision created. The Sabbath was of much greater importance in the Jewish economy yet there is no mention of any turmoil or even the slightest confrontation arising from it's supposed cancellation. The reason for this is because the Sabbath was never nailed to the cross. Only the ceremonial shadowy sabbaths were nailed to the cross. The 7th day Sabbath was instituted and given to mankind thousands of years before a Jew existed. You can more change or abolish the memorial of creation any more than you can change your birthday. Be very careful Jimmy. If you break the law and teach men to do the same you are working at cross purposes with God. Obedience which stems from a loving relationship with God is not legalism. That's sanctification. Satan want's nothing more than to overthrow the law of God. It is what he rebelled against from the beginning.

Good comment, except you misunderstand the annual sabbaths, apparently, which also were not done away with.
You misunderstand Paul... look again at the things he said very closely, laying aside any preconceived notions . Paul didn't contradict God's law. If he had, we should consider him a false prophet.
The 7th was also nailed to the cross. Colossians 2:16 clearly states this. It states holy days(annual holy days), new moons(monthly holy days), and sabbath....7th day. U have no argument against this clear fact.
So there is no law and therefore no righteousness under the new covenant? So this in essence means that now that Christ has died on the cross, I can sin all I want and still expect to be in heaven... that's really what's at the core of your attacks on the Sabbath.
Well Said and sadly highly overlooked.
The passages of Scripture such as Acts 20:7(On the first day of the week ), 1 Corinthians 16:2(on the first day of the week), Colossians 2:16-17, and Revelation 1:10 (On the Lord's Day)indicate that, even during New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and that Christians are to worship on the Lord’s day, Sunday, instead.
"And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks."
(Acts 18:4)
definitely that was the day the jews gather
"he shall think to change times and law"
First question should be? What is the fulfillment of the Law? Kingdom of Heaven. Has the Kingdom of Heaven come in its fullest? No Therefore, the law stands until it is fulfilled. Jesus states in Mathew 5:19; Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments and teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever shall DO and teach them, the same shall be great in the Kingdom of Heaven. Answer about the Sabbath: Man does not have the authority to change the Sabbath or any commands of the Law until the Kingdom of Heaven thru Jesus (Christ) returns.
felicia read a couple verses prior .jesus came to fulfill the law.
read matt 5:17-20:
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
you are correct on sabbath day.this is an day that can not be changed...it was an day of rest, as god himself rested on the 7th day,it was also an celebration of his creation.you are correct NO MAN NOR CHURCH has had the authority to change the sabbath day...no matter what they say.if they say this,there is no truth in them.
jesus himself being part of the godhead , did not have the authority to change the sabbath ,
see mark 2:27-28.
jesus himself would actually support the godhead,and support all of the 10 commandments.this is something that is important for all to understand
ABSOLUTELY
@@MsChlogirl If you really read and understood what verse 20 of Matthew 5:20 was saying you'd understand verse 18 and 19. Here we go. For unless your righteous surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teacher of the law you will certainly not enter the Kingdom of heaven. (So what is he saying) The Pharisees and the teacher of the law standard was not good enough and you have to exceed that to get in. How can someone be more strict of the law than them. You cant!!!!! Unless its by faith in Jesus Christ. Dont just quote scripture understand it first. The young rich ruler said he kept all the law. But it wasn't enough. Why??? Galatians 3:11 But that (no) man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident for the just shall live by faith. Roman's 3:20 Therefore (no) one will be declared righteous in God sight by the works of the law rather through the law we become conscious of our sin. So what's the solution. Here it is!!! John 1:17 The law was given through Moses,, (grace and truth) came through Jesus Christ. Grace means umeritted favor something you didn't work for. EPHESIANS 2:8 For by (grace) you have been saved through faith and this is not from yourselves it is a gift of God. Romans 10:4 Christ is the end of the law for righteousness ( to everyone who believes). Galatians 3:19 Wherfore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions (till) the seed should come, that seed is Jesus.Galatians 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ (that we might be justified by faith ). The scripture is mighty clear!!! So does all this mean we dont obey the moral law of God of course not. Galatians 6:2 bear one another burdens and so fulfill (the law of Christ) wich is love. plz study the sermon on the mount in Matthew 5:17
Matthew 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. This is what the Pharisees and Scribes and the young rich ruler lacked. Love!!!. In closing when you read the book of Acts the only reason the Apostles went to the temple on the sabbath was to teach non believing Jews about Christ. But the saints met on the first day of the week. Acts 20:7 1 Corinthians 16:2 Revelation 1:10 The Lord day wich is the first day of the week the wicked catholic church didn't change the day they changed the name to Sun-day after the Sun- God but the first day of the week worship was in the scripture first. Why do we worship on the first day of the week. Genesis 1 God said let there be( light) so light is on the first day and rest is on the 7th day catch it. Jesus is the passover. When was the passover kept???? Leviticus 23:11 He shall wave the sheaf before the Lord for you to be accepted on the day (after the Sabbath) the priest shall wave it. Christ got out of the grave the day after the Sabbath we dont worship a day we worship Christ. Every day is a Holy day. Acts 2:46 (Every day) they continued to meet together in the temple courts. Romans 14 teaches about the weak and the strong. Plz read it . I'll give you vs one and two you read the rest. Roman's 14:1 Accept the one whose (faith is weak) without quarrelling over disputable matters 2 one person's whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. You read the rest. Blessings in love Christ servant.

@YAJUN YUAN Yet not in this context. St. Paul is specifically referring to Mosaic Law.

Constantine was not a Bishop, he was the Roman Emperor, the first Roman Emperor to embrace Christianity, and put an end the persecution of Christians with the Edict of Milan in in 313 AD.
Long before Constantine, Long before the Council of Laodicea (which was a regional, local Council), both Scripture and the earliest records of Church history demonstrate that Christians observed the Lord's Day (the Day of the Lord's Resurrection).
Passages of Scripture such as Acts 20:7, we read the following: "On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them…"
Then in 1 Corinthians 16:2, Money was collected for the needs of the Church on Sunday. In Colossians 2:16-17, Paul also tells Christians are not to be judged for failing to observing the Jewish Sabbath; and Revelation 1:10 emphasizes the Lord's Day., During New Testament times, the Sabbath is no longer binding and Christians are to worship on the Lord’s day, Sunday, instead.
The earliest historical records of the church attest to this:
The Didache
"But every Lord’s day . . . gather yourselves together and break bread, and give thanksgiving after having confessed your transgressions, that your sacrifice may be pure. But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned" (Didache 14 [A.D. 70]).

Justin Martyr
"[W]e too would observe the fleshly circumcision, and the Sabbaths, and in short all the feasts, if we did not know for what reason they were enjoined [on] you-namely, on account of your transgressions and the hardness of your heart. . . . [H]ow is it, Trypho, that we would not observe those rites which do not harm us-I speak of fleshly circumcision and Sabbaths and feasts? . . . God enjoined you to keep the Sabbath, and imposed on you other precepts for a sign, as I have already said, on account of your unrighteousness and that of your fathers . . ." (Dialogue with Trypho the Jew 18, 21 [A.D. 155]).
"But Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Savior on the same day rose from the dead" (First Apology 67 [A.D. 155]).
Tertullian
"[L]et him who contends that the Sabbath is still to be observed as a balm of salvation, and circumcision on the eighth day . . . teach us that, for the time past, righteous men kept the Sabbath or practiced circumcision, and were thus rendered ‘friends of God.’ For if circumcision purges a man, since God made Adam uncircumcised, why did he not circumcise him, even after his sinning, if circumcision purges? . . . Therefore, since God originated Adam uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, consequently his offspring also, Abel, offering him sacrifices, uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, was by him [God] commended [Gen. 4:1-7, Heb. 11:4]. . . . Noah also, uncircumcised-yes, and unobservant of the Sabbath-God freed from the deluge. For Enoch too, most righteous man, uncircumcised and unobservant of the Sabbath, he translated from this world, who did not first taste death in order that, being a candidate for eternal life, he might show us that we also may, without the burden of the law of Moses, please God" (An Answer to the Jews 2 [A.D. 203]).

"The apostles further appointed: On the first day of the week let there be service, and the reading of the holy scriptures, and the oblation [sacrifice of the Mass], because on the first day of the week [i.e., Sunday] our Lord rose from the place of the dead, and on the first day of the week he arose upon the world, and on the first day of the week he ascended up to heaven, and on the first day of the week he will appear at last with the angels of heaven" (Didascalia 2 [A.D. 225]).
Origen
"Hence it is not possible that the [day of] rest after the Sabbath should have come into existence from the seventh [day] of our God. On the contrary, it is our Savior who, after the pattern of his own rest, caused us to be made in the likeness of his death, and hence also of his resurrection" (Commentary on John 2:28 [A.D. 229]).
Victorinus
"The sixth day [Friday] is called parasceve, that is to say, the preparation of the kingdom. . . . On this day also, on account of the passion of the Lord Jesus Christ, we make either a station to God or a fast. On the seventh day he rested from all his works, and blessed it, and sanctified it. On the former day we are accustomed to fast rigorously, that on the Lord’s day we may go forth to our bread with giving of thanks. And let the parasceve become a rigorous fast, lest we should appear to observe any Sabbath with the Jews . . . which Sabbath he [Christ] in his body abolished" (The Creation of the World [A.D. 300]).
Eusebius of Caesarea
[T]he day of his [Christ’s] light . . . was the day of his resurrection from the dead, which they say, as being the one and only truly holy day and the Lord’s day, is better than any number of days as we ordinarily understand them, and better than the days set apart by the Mosaic law for feasts, new moons, and Sabbaths, which the apostle [Paul] teaches are the shadow of days and not days in reality" (Proof of the Gospel 4:16:186 [A.D. 319]).
Athanasius
"The Sabbath was the end of the first creation, the Lord’s day was the beginning of the second, in which he renewed and restored the old in the same way as he prescribed that they should formerly observe the Sabbath as a memorial of the end of the first things, so we honor the Lord’s day as being the memorial of the new creation" (On Sabbath and Circumcision 3 [A.D. 345]).
Cyril of Jerusalem
"Fall not away either into the sect of the Samaritans or into Judaism, for Jesus Christ has henceforth ransomed you. Stand aloof from all observance of Sabbaths and from calling any indifferent meats common or unclean" (Catechetical Lectures 4:37 [A.D. 350]).
Council of Laodicea
"Christians should not Judaize and should not be idle on the Sabbath, but should work on that day; they should, however, particularly reverence the Lord’s day and, if possible, not work on it, because they were Christians" (Canon 29 [A.D. 360]).
John Chrysostom
You have put on Christ, you have become a member of the Lord and been enrolled in the heavenly city, and you still grovel in the law [of Moses]? How is it possible for you to obtain the kingdom? Listen to Paul’s words, that the observance of the law overthrows the gospel, and learn, if you will, how this comes to pass, and tremble, and shun this pitfall. Why do you keep the Sabbath and fast with the Jews?" (Homilies on Galatians 2:17 [A.D. 395]).
The Apostolic Constitutions
"And on the day of our Lord’s resurrection, which is the Lord’s day, meet more diligently, sending praise to God that made the universe by Jesus, and sent him to us, and condescended to let him suffer, and raised him from the dead. Otherwise what apology will he make to God who does not assemble on that day . . . in which is performed the reading of the prophets, the preaching of the gospel, the oblation of the sacrifice, the gift of the holy food" (Apostolic Constitutions 2:7:60 [A.D. 400]).
Augustine
"Well, now, I should like to be told what there is in these ten commandments, except the observance of the Sabbath, which ought not to be kept by a Christian. . . . Which of these commandments would anyone say that the Christian ought not to keep? It is possible to contend that it is not the law which was written on those two tables that the apostle [Paul] describes as ‘the letter that kills’ [2 Cor. 3:6], but the law of circumcision and the other sacred rites which are now abolished" (The Spirit and the Letter 24 [A.D. 412]).
LONG BEFORE the Council of Laodicea, and LONG BEFORE Constantine.
This was always the practice among the early Christians.
But why listen to what the early Christians had to say, right? It makes much more sense to follow the ramblings of a man made religion that began in the 19th century, almost 2000 years after Christ, with absolutely no trace of apostolic succession or authority; and an interpretation of scripture which is diametrically opposed to what the apostles and their successors actually taught.
ultimouomo11. You wrote a small volume quoting several PEOPLE who are given undue importance by the catholic church, and you tell the traditions of SOME early christians (we know there were MANY DIFFERENT sects, including arians and gnostics). None of those who kept Sunday or wrote in support of it was either God or the Christ. You should go and read the words of your Lord (as he quotes the prophet Isaiah speaking the words of GOD) in Mt15:7-9. Also Mt 7:21 and Lk 6:46. Very brief!

Exodus 20:8 REMEMBER the Sabbath day to keep it holy six days you shall do your work but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord you God. Mathew 28 etc -Where was Jesus the day before? He was resting on His Sabbath the seventh day, the day of rest according to the scripture. He is the Lord of the Sabbath.
No it's not dude, early Christians referred to Sunday as "the Lord's day" never Saturday
@@tearoaupu5245 Your right, but why would they gather on Sunday? For no reason at all? Just for the fun of it?
We are Sabbath keepers
Saturday is the only day for rest which God has gave to man not other day
ok then i see your angle now but here then is the next question what is the Lord's day? well Jesus said i am the Lord of the sabbath (matt. 12:8).. the Father said in the OT that the sabbath are His sabbaths.. (Exo 31:13) and (Lev 23:2-3) all these verses implying which days are the Lord's day? yep the Lord's day is the sabbath..
I think it comes from John of Patmos speaking of the Great & Terrible Day of the Lord. But you see "House of David" vs "David's House." "Day of the LORD" vs "the LORD's Day."
Sabbath is not only for Jews but for mankind. Adam, Eve, Abraham, Noah, Enoch, ... are not Jews but they kept Saturday as the day of the Lord
Sorry Genesis book not even mansion the sabbath only mansion Seventh day.
Exodus 31:12-17
when Jesus comes to reign on Earth we will worship on Saturday the Sabbath when John was in the vision on the Lord's day ,he was saying about when Jesus comes back to the earth with the shout of the sound of a trumpet
When Jesus comes the first day of Creation
Sunday will never be the Lords day. In John 14:15 says if you love me keep my commandments. Jesus never change the day of worship. Plus in Mathew 24:35 told us that Heaven and earth shall pass away,but my word by no mean shall pass. So please explain to me how it got change. It wasn't change by the God head, so who did then?
He read to you the verses that explained how the early church worshiped and had the authority to do so you took a few verses and over simplified them
No I didn't took few verses and simplify anything. Through out the bible show us to be obedient to the law of God.
which applied to the jews
Willie you are telling me that Jesus died for the Jews only, because only them disobey the law of God

"[W]hen he [God] said, ‘You shall not kill’ . . . he did not add, ‘because murder is a wicked thing.’ The reason was that conscience had taught this beforehand, and he speaks thus, as to those who know and understand the point. Wherefore when he speaks to us of another commandment, not known to us by the dictate of conscience, he not only prohibits, but adds the reason. When, for instance, he gave commandment concerning the Sabbath- ‘On the seventh day you shall do no work’-he subjoined also the reason for this cessation. What was this? ‘Because on the seventh day God rested from all his works which he had begun to make’ [Ex. 20:10-11]. . . . For what purpose then, I ask, did he add a reason respecting the Sabbath, but did no such thing in regard to murder? Because this commandment was not one of the leading ones. It was not one of those which were accurately defined of our conscience, but a kind of partial and temporary one, and for this reason it was abolished afterward. But those which are necessary and uphold our life are the following: ‘You shall not kill. . . . You shall not commit adultery. . . . You shall not steal.’ On this account he adds no reason in this case, nor enters into any instruction on the matter, but is content with the bare prohibition" (Homilies on the Statutes 12:9 [A.D. 387]).
"You have put on Christ, you have become a member of the Lord and been enrolled in the heavenly city, and you still grovel in the law [of Moses]? How is it possible for you to obtain the kingdom? Listen to Paul’s words, that the observance of the law overthrows the gospel, and learn, if you will, how this comes to pass, and tremble, and shun this pitfall. Why do you keep the Sabbath and fast with the Jews?" (Homilies on Galatians 2:17 [A.D. 395]).
"The rite of circumcision was venerable in the Jews’ account, forasmuch as the law itself gave way thereto, and the Sabbath was less esteemed than circumcision. For that circumcision might be performed, the Sabbath was broken; but that the Sabbath might be kept, circumcision was never broken; and mark, I pray, the dispensation of God. This is found to be even more solemn than the Sabbath, as not being omitted at certain times. When then it is done away, much more is the Sabbath" (Homilies on Philippians 10 [A.D. 402]).
The Apostolic Constitutions
"And on the day of our Lord’s resurrection, which is the Lord’s day, meet more diligently, sending praise to God that made the universe by Jesus, and sent him to us, and condescended to let him suffer, and raised him from the dead. Otherwise what apology will he make to God who does not assemble on that day . . . in which is performed the reading of the prophets, the preaching of the gospel, the oblation of the sacrifice, the gift of the holy food" (Apostolic Constitutions 2:7:60 [A.D. 400]).
Augustine
"Well, now, I should like to be told what there is in these ten commandments, except the observance of the Sabbath, which ought not to be kept by a Christian. . . . Which of these commandments would anyone say that the Christian ought not to keep? It is possible to contend that it is not the law which was written on those two tables that the apostle [Paul] describes as ‘the letter that kills’ [2 Cor. 3:6], but the law of circumcision and the other sacred rites which are now abolished" (The Spirit and the Letter 24 [A.D. 412]).
Pope Gregory I
"It has come to my ears that certain men of perverse spirit have sown among you some things that are wrong and opposed to the holy faith, so as to forbid any work being done on the Sabbath day. What else can I call these [men] but preachers of Antichrist, who when he comes will cause the Sabbath day as well as the Lord’s day to be kept free from all work. For because he [the Antichrist] pretends to die and rise again, he wishes the Lord’s day to be held in reverence; and because he compels the people to Judaize that he may bring back the outward rite of the law, and subject the perfidy of the Jews to himself, he wishes the Sabbath to be observed. For this which is said by the prophet, ‘You shall bring in no burden through your gates on the Sabbath day’ [Jer. 17:24] could be held to as long as it was lawful for the law to be observed according to the letter. But after that the grace of almighty God, our Lord Jesus Christ, has appeared, the commandments of the law which were spoken figuratively cannot be kept according to the letter. For if anyone says that this about the Sabbath is to be kept, he must needs say that carnal sacrifices are to be offered. He must say too that the commandment about the circumcision of the body is still to be retained. But let him hear the apostle Paul saying in opposition to him: ‘If you be circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing’ [Gal. 5:2]" (Letters 13:1 [A.D. 597]).

This was very informative and helpful. My mom has often questioned the nature of the Sabbath. I explained to her the difference between the Sabbath (Saturday) & the Lord's Day (Sunday). But your video would explain it much better.
*False Dichotomy Logical Fallacy* the Lord's day IS the 7th day Sabbath and this has forever been Truth - proven in OT and NT.
let me know if you'd like it proven with Scripture, Sir.
@@tony1685 That's a good point. Could you show me in the Scriptures where it says the Scriptures are the only reliable source for knowing about God?
Please don't misunderstand me.
I'm not asking for Scriptures which authenticate the validity of their source. I am aware of those. For example, 2 Peter 1:16 say, "For we did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty."
I'm also not asking for passages of Scripture which state the value of the Scriptures. I am aware of those too. For example, 2 Timothy 3:16 says, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.."
I'm simply asking for a passage of Scripture which actually specifically says that we can ONLY RELIABLY trust the Scriptures themselves?
I ask because there are Scriptures that clearly state there are other ways we can know God, such as Romans 1:20, which states, "For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-His eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse."
The video was false from start to finish. God's true Sabbath is the seventh day, Saturday, it always has been and always will be.
@@josephwells8699 Thank you. Peace.

yes, see Isaiah 8:20 - which shows nothing can contradict Scripture.
Deuteronomy 4:2 , 12:32 - which shows we don't add nor subtract from His doctrine.
Revelation 22:18 - which also shows penalty for adding or subtracting from His Word.

The Catholic church even admits to changing God's law
In the Catechism of the Council of Trent,
"The Church of God has thought it well to transfer the celebration and observance of the Sabbath to Sunday!"
-p 402, second revised edition (English), 1937. (First published in 1566) The Catholic church change the fourth Commandment and it's quite obvious.
It was SDA cult who changed the meaning of the sabbath.. Going to church on saturday is not keeping the sabbath.
Sabbath is resting from all work
Worshipping God isnt work
The Lords day is the Sabbath Saturday
"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues."
(Revelation 18:4)
I understand why we don’t need to keep Jewish dietary practices but Jesus said we are still to abide by the 10 Commandments of Moses. keeping the Sabbath is in the 10 commandments...Doesn’t that mean that we need both the Sabbath and the Lord‘s day? Asking as a Lutheran.
Yeshua(Jesus) was jewish.note:I'm not a 7th day adventist.we don't keep his commands to be saved but as our fruit.I have many quotes admitting the change.
You quoted that the sabbath day is in fact saturday....this is also confirmed in the holy bible. But then you deviate from the bible and refer to the catechism. The catechism is not the bible it is doctrine created by man
The bible clearly states that keeping the sabbath is a commandment.
You do not have the right to change something that God wrote with his own finger!
Actually, the Catholic church can! What is loosed on earth will be loosed in heaven!
"He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him."

Hallelujah, amen!

“Q. In what manner can we show a Protestant, that he speaks unreasonably against fasts and abstinences?”
“A. Ask him why he keeps Sunday, and not Saturday, as his day of rest, since he is unwilling either to fast or to abstain. If he reply, that the Scripture orders him to keep the Sunday, tell him the Scripture speaks of Saturday or the Sabbath, but gives no command anywhere regarding Sunday or the first day of the week.
-A Doctrinal Catechism Steven Kennan On Obedience due to the Church p.181
The word gentile isn't found anywhere in Acts 13:42 and 44. The people you are referring to were coverts to Judaism.
St Paul clearly explains why he went to the temple: "To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law."
Not to worship because the Sabbath was no longer binding on him. Thats why he says, "though I myself am not under the law but under Christ's law"
no where in the Bible the first day of the week is called the Lord's day, Isaiah 58:13

"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill."
(Matthew 5:17)
Preach it brother! Preach it!
yeap law was fullfiled.. that's it the reason for saturday worship with the jews is over the new covenant with Christ now commerates on the day He rise from the dead and complete the saga of salvation..
Jesus repeated all but one of the 10 comments in the NT , why because he said He was the Lord of the Sabbath not a day and went on to say; Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you REST. Matt.11:28
The Lords day is the day of rest, it was on a Saturday, not a Sunday. Jesus rose between the 9th hour on Saturday and sunset. His tomb was discovered empty the next morning, or Sunday morning. Not one single verse suggests Jesus rose the first day of the week. He was discovered to have already risen on the first day of the week.
Also the house of Israel followed the law of the sabbath all the way to their end, Matthew 24:20 (September 22, AD73 was their last day).
Galatians 5:14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
James 2:8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing right.
Romans 13:10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
Gal 6:2 Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
Rom 13:8 for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
Mt 19:16-19 & Mt 22:36-40
@YAJUN YUAN All the commandments contain the precepts of the moral law, "Love of God and love of Neighbour. But the sabbath day itself is not a moral law.
"we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight."
(John 3:22)
Show me averse only a single verse that christ said u can now observe sunday as us Sabbath for ihave resurected on it.....if u show me that verse iwill keep sunday as my sabbath....
Matthew 19:16-19
2 Thessalonians 2:15
Jesus' 12 gathered for worship on Sunday. That tradition was passed on by word of mouth and has been going on for 2000 years.
Matthew 18:18
Jesus told those same men that whatever they bind on Earth will be bound in heaven.
One thing they bound all Christian followers to, was Sunday worship.
@@zwijac jesus also said if you love me keep my commandments when jesus rose on the first day of the week and was seen by the 12 apostles before he ascended into heaven did he instruct them that the sabbath would now be changed to Sunday think you will find all the apostles still keeping the law Peter and John going upto the temple at the hour of prayer where Peter heald the lame begger why would they still be going to the temple if the law was done away with after jesus death
Christ established a new sabbath with the apostles during the last supper which he completed just as he was dying on the cross by finishing the fourth cup of wine by drinking the sour wine held to his lips on the cross.
As Judaic followers the apostles would have been uneasy with Jesus ending the last supper without having the customary 4th cup that night. When they learned of his drinking the fruit of the vine on the cross … they realized that when Christ said “it is finished” before he died that it was the 4th cup and the new sabbath that Christ established with himself as the perfect sacrifice to God the father.
The apostles taking this act with them set Sunday as the lords day for which weekly mass was celebrated. There are first and second century writings on the Lord’s day being the day of worshipping Christ. The church chose not to include those writings as material for the New Testament because they didn’t see the need to canonize the operation of the church as the purpose of the New Testament was only to relay the truth of Jesus and his ministry … not to delve into the minutia of the church as other early Christian writings cover
“If you follow the Bible alone there can be no question that you are obliged to keep Saturday holy, since that is the day especially prescribed by Almighty God to be kept holy to the Lord. In keeping Sunday, non-Catholics are simply following the practice of the Catholic Church for 1800 years, ...For, since we deny that the Bible is the sole rule of faith, we can fall back upon the constant practice and tradition of the Church.”
-Francis G. Lentz, The Question Box, 1900, pp. 98,99
You are aware that what was nailed to the cross was the curse of death, not the Torah. He is telling the Jewish believers to not let anyone judge them in keeping Torah and observing the Sabbath!
Not Jewish but israelite
@@americaisajokenow1090 Exactly true. But only a remnant of Jews was left in the world observing YHWH's decrees, commandments, instructions, precepts, testimonies. Many were destroyed during the time of the Maccabees. Even today it seems many Jews have turned aside. Praying that Born again people of the world will repent and walk of one accord in our Creator's Instructions instead of being bound with soulish-ties-to the traditions of men / paganism. The Whole House of Israel.
I told you Saturday (7th day) was the Sabbath and Sunday was the 1st day back to work. Things seem to be falling apart over there now. Wake up!
Show me where God went back to work on the eight day.
that is what man wrote. "let no man deceive you. Jesus said I did not come to destroy the LAW ( Torah ) but to full fill it.
Jesus fulfilled the sabbath.
The Lords Day is on the 7th day of the week. According to the Ten Commandments.
“It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and all other Christians, that the Bible does not support them anywhere in their observance of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church.”
-Rev. Brady, in an address, reported in the Elizabeth, N.J. 'News' of March 18, 1903
Constantine (325 AD) DID NOT change the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday as Sabbath keepers falsely teach. Christians never kept the Sabbath from the apostolic age (33 AD) through the time of Constantine (325AD). Constantine merely made the first "Sunday closure law", since it had already been the day Christians worship for 300 years!
The 4th commandment says to worship on the sabbath day, not the lords day.
Look again it says to rest, not worship.
@@italianoetnico.calabreseve9262 Right we are not supposed go telling everyone to keep these sabbath and new moons , and these feast days, they were fulfilled in Christ.

Zack Buzza I wii keep that in mind, thanks.
I worship God Almighty on Sunday morning Resurrection
Which part of the scripture tell you that Sunday is the Lord's day. Did Jesus tell the catholic to change his 7th day sabbath to Sunday. Jesus says in Matthew 5:17-19 that he never came to destroy the Law or prophets but to fulfilled them. Why will few people sit and change the law of God, when exodus says remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy
I am absolutely certain you didn't watch the video. Or else you will not make such an absurd statement.
going to church on saturday and preaching about ellen white is not keeping the sabbath!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU ALL FOREVER!!!!!!!
“For example, nowhere in the Bible do we find that Christ or the apostles ordered the Sabbath be changed from Saturday to Sunday. We have the commandment of God given to Moses to keep holy the Sabbath day, that is the seventh day of the week, Saturday. Today most Christians keep Sunday because it has been revealed to us by the Church outside the Bible."
-The Catholic Virginian, “To Tell You The Truth,” Vol. 22 No. 49
“The Church changed the observance of the Sabbath to Sunday by right of the divine, infallible authority given to her by her founder, Jesus Christ. The Protestant claiming the Bible to be the only guide of faith has no warrant for observing Sunday. In this matter the Seventh-day Adventist is the only consistent Protestant.”
-The Catholic Universe Bulletin, Aug. 14, 1942, p.4
My teacher is a seventh day adevtist... Remember the sabbath to keep it holy
there is more to it than just keeping the 7th day of the chronological recurring solar 7-day week...SDA don't keep the Sabbath correctly either. You have done research, do a little more and let the Holy Spirit guide you to all truth. Blessings of our Lord be with you and guide you.
The seven day week has never changed. The sabbath is Saturday and it will always be on Saturday.
Whether it be lunar or solar calendar’s, the seven day week has remained all of this time.
@@HeSavedMe So if the sabbath is Saturday who do you worship? First the first of the week is Sunday, Jesus Resurrect on Sunday the disciples worship when he ressurect in heaven and after they receive the holy spirit they took a bread and wine an make the bread into pieces so we worship Jesus Christ on Sunday because the old testament in sabbath is referring to Jesus Christ because Jesus Christ said: No one comes to the Father but through me
@@hanesjedricabiera2691 I worship God the Father, in Jesus name.
And Rome changed the sabbath in 321 AD as a “mark” of her authority over God’s word. Jesus kept the sabbath, the apostles did, and early Christians did as well. When Rome changed it from Saturday to Sunday, they slaughtered Christian’s who observed Saturday and thus we have near complete obedience to Rome’s authority in modern times.
God says remember the 7th day.
Satan says you’ll honour the 1st day.

@@nickdon I use to be SDA now Catholic, not all SDA are fake Christians, many believers are very much Christians and love Jesus Christ very much and do everything they can to follow the ten commandments. The SDA church is very good at brainwashing its followers. They use a great amount of fear to keep people in line and I can attest to this as even to this day I will get a fleeting thought of "oh I hope I didn't leave the true church for a fake church. Just know that most SDA people are there because it's the only church of that size that follows worshiping on Saturday just like the Catholics are the only church of that size that have the true Eucharist.
I'm dealing with being married to a die-hard SDA. I haven't told her that I am going back to my Catholic faith. I'd like any advice you have on how to approach this frightening prospect of telling her outside of prayer. Thanks, and God bless you.
Yes, the paragraph you shared explains quite succinctly why Sunday is observed--however, the Bible does not say that. Simply quoting John saying he was in the Spirit on the "Lord's Day" means nothing by way of identifying Sunday as the day just because some choose to call it such today. By that I mean, since the Scriptures say that Christ is "Lord of the Sabbath" (Matthew 12:8, Mark 2: 28, and Luke 6:5.), wouldn't it stand to reason that indeed the "Lord's Day" is the Sabbath? Hmm... Interesting discussion. Thank you for your video.
I am not sure I have read, where it states that Jesus rose, from the dead on Sunday. He will rise on the Third day, but I am not sure I have read on what day He was crucified? We typically say it was a Friday, but was it really? All I get from scripture is that He was discoved to have risen on a Sunday, but no mention of exactly when He did rise. I for one and glad He rose from the dead, because I was dead at one time (spiritually) and Him dying for me saved me, and I am grateful that He died for me, while I was a horrible, horrible sinner. Praise the Lord, I honor You, Jesus, EVERYDAY!

acts 20:7 and I cor 16:2 are scriptures says 1st day of the week but the greek says sabbaton (7th day) read greek lexicon on bible hub . com man changed it.I go,constantine and historians admitting the change and how early believers not just jewish believers kept them.
Not so, my friend. "The first of the sabbath" (greek μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων) found in Acts 20:7 does mean Sunday - there is proof in Mark 16:1-2, where it uses the expression after stating that it was "when the sabbath was over". I see it's been 6 years since you posted this. I hope you returned already to the Bride which calls "Come!" along with the Spirit. If not, I say: "Come!"
it's talking about the day of the Lord as in the day in end times where the wrath of God is poured out. it did not say he had the vision on a Sunday, it said he was in spirit form being shown the day of the Lord as in last 7 plagues
it even said right after that he heard a trumpet and after that you can see later when it says the 7th trumpet sounds Jesus returns and the day of the Lord which is a period of yr the last yr of tribulation of the wrath of God. the 7th trumpet unleashes the seven last plagues. later in revelation it even tells you the Lord's day is the wrath being poured out so why do you say it is saying Sunday there when revelation makes it clear what day he meant by that. the rest of your argument I feel is good but that is taking revelation out of context to make it sound like it is saying sunday
“But you may read the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the religious observance of Saturday, a day which we never sanctify.”
-The Faith of our Fathers, by James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, 88th ed. p.89
The bible said the sabbath was made for man. Man said the sabbath was made for the jews. Scripture said the sabbath was created on the day Yahuah God seized from all his work, not the day the Israelites left Egypt.
Great words!
This teacher got it all wrong. The "first day of the week" is the first day of the week of week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. This is from Leviticus 23, the Feast of Weeks. The Feast of Weeks begins at First Fruits/Resurrection Day as Day 1 of the 49. Look very close at 1 Corinthians 16 and Acts 20, just after we read the "first day of the week" we soon read Pentecost. Pentecost is Day 50, the day after Day 49 of Weeks. "Church" day was changed because of a horrible misinterpretation. Crazy!!! We need to all be Bereans.
@Hullabaloo 👍😊
Sabbath existed at Creation long before the Jewish nation existed.
God blesses us with the Church father's
Matthew 23:9 "And do not call anyone on earth your father, for you have one Father, who is in heaven."
Matthew 23:8, 10-12 "Don't let people do that to you, put you on a pedestal like that. You all have a single Teacher, and you are all classmates. Don't set people up as experts over your life, letting them tell you what to do. Save that authority for GOD; let Him tell you what to do. And don't let people maneuver you into taking charge of them. There is only one Life-Leader for you and them - Christ."
do you want to stand out? Then step down. Be a servant. If you puff yourself up, you'll get the wind knocked out of you. But if you're content to simply be yourself, your life will count for plenty. reassess whop you call your leaders....God is reserved for the place as Ruler of all, for He created all and can destroy all. Your faith in Christ is what saves you.

in the new testament the Sabbath was kept after the death of Jesus and the gentiles kept it to .the reason Jesus rose on a Sunday was because Saturday was the Sabbath and Saturday would have been to early for him to rise ,he had to be in the grave three nights and three days like the scriptures in Jonah in the belly of the whale
“Protestantism, in discarding the authority of the church, has no good reason for its Sunday theory, and ought, logically, to keep Saturday with the Jews.”

@@danielnelson9411 Yall are the ones following man instead of Jesus' chosen apostles. It's clear from both Paul's letter to Colossians and from the early Church fathers that Christians were no longer bound to keep the sabbath (or circumcision).
@@danielnelson9411 Does the circumcision commandment still need to be kept? Do the kosher commandments still need to be kept? Do ALL the Jewish holy days still need to be kept? Yes or no?
The Apostles did NOT say to keep all the Old Covenant commandments. RATHER, empowered by Jesus Christ Himself to bind and loose with HIS authority, they abrogated many of those ritual commandments, including circumcision, kosher, and the Jewish holy days (annual festivals, monthly new moons, and weekly sabbaths). The Old Covenant was but a shadow and preparation for the New Covenant of Jesus, a shadow and preparation that has been fulfilled and has passed away. Do I really need to cite all the Scripture passages that demonstrate all this?
You cannot threaten me with a misguided fear. Not only do I know the Bible, but I know how the EARLIEST CHRISTIANS interpreted it. And they have MORE authority than any SDA adherent like yourself. Have you ever even read the writings of Clement of Rome, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus and compared their beliefs and biblical interpretations to your own??
You are following man-made traditions that are only 2-3 hundred years old, that CANNOT be traced back historically to the Apostles and those they taught and ordained.
@@tonyl3762 hi Sir - it's important you have made a wrong comparison - see 1 Cor 7:19 - the 7th day Sabbath is from God, not from Moses. and It's not at all jewish - It was established at Creation - Gen 2:2-3, which was 2,000 yrs *Before* Judah (first jew).
paragraph 2 - 'shadows' were introduced after sin - Sabbath was prior, when all was _'very good'_
paragraph 3 - you wrote: _'the EARLIEST CHRISTIANS...'_ - see OT and NT - these are the earliest Christians.
and which day do you think will still be kept in Heaven?
see Isaiah 66:22-23 - the 7th day Sabbath, the Lord's day!

@@tonyl3762is it ok to murder bc thas in the same 10 commandments as the sabbath
I like how people find loopholes for everything
Catholics began with the loopholes, then they decided to do away with loopholes and just devise a new way - their own way.
God instituted a memorial at the end of creation: the Sabbath, read carefully the 4th commandment, it's very clear. We sabbath keepers by obeying it recognize God as the creator. If He is the creator of this world He owns it, and if He owns it He has the authority to command whatever He wishes and we as tenants of HIS world are not free to challenge the owner's authority and go over it to impose on our fellow residents our will. If you refuse to obey our landlord you're free to leave the universe he created. Obey or go

Not only are Catholic doctrines BIBLICAL, but the Bible came from the Catholic church. Protestantism did not exist when the Bible was compiled and protestants aquaint themselves with ONLY the scriptures which suit their agenda.
Why does the pope say any one who keep all of God commandments are too rigid jesus say we are to keep all his commandment .jesus say if you love me keep my commandment read john 14:15-31
The bible came from God my love.the catholic system is the mark of the beast. The pope is the man of sin that God is revealing now
sorry but GOD used the Catholic council of Nicea to bring the written Bible into existance in the year 397. NO prot church existed anywhere on planet earth when the bible was compiled and you do not own it. It existed LONG B4 protestantism did

Whenever you see "the first day of the week" always keep in mind the 7 Feasts/Holy Convocations from Leviticus 23. There were 3 Feast Weeks that were mandatory for all Hebrew males (Exodus 23, 34 and Deuteronomy 16). The 3 were Tabernacles (Sukkot), Unleavened Bread and Weeks. Weeks was 7 Weeks of 7 or 49 Days. The next Day was Pentecost, Day 50. You mentioned Acts 20:7, this was the "first day of the Week" of Week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7, how do we know that? Look at Acts 20 verse 16, we see Pentecost listed there. Another Verse is 1 Corinthians 16:2, same thing here, look at 1 Corinthians 16:8, there is Pentecost again. The most classic is after the Resurrection. Jesus Rose on the "first day of the Week" of Week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. First Fruits is Day 1 of the 49. He appeared for 49 Days during Weeks. Read Acts 1 and 2, count backwards from Pentecost morning, there is a Sabbath's Day journey (about a 1,000 yards) then we are at Day 49 at the Ascension.
This teacher got it all wrong. The "first day of the week" is the first day of the week of week 1 of the 7 Weeks of 7. This is from Leviticus 23, the Feast of Weeks. The Feast of Weeks begins at First Fruits/Resurrection Day as Day 1 of the 49. Look very close at 1 Corinthians 16 and Acts 20, just after we read the "first day of the week" we soon read Pentecost. Pentecost is Day 50, the day after Day 49 of Weeks. "Church" day was changed because of a horrible misinterpretation. Crazy!!! We need to all be Bereans.
There is a clear connection between the mark of the beast and sunday worship. From your response to this presentation its safe to say you don't read or study your Bible which would expose both. We are all heading for a day when worship will be an issue and receiving the mark of the beast will come with the plagues of God. This Jimmy fellow is preaching a sallow false doctrine as he does in all his videos. A simple study of Gods word will expose it.
@@keithelrod777 Im not sure what ''my doctrine'' has to do with John Darby? Further, I see no connection between him and the Catholic church. It is true Darby and the ''Plymouth Brethren'' had a real influence on Schofield, his Bible and the modern pre tribulation rapture theory but there only connection with me is in your confused mind. I can kinda make out some truth in what you wrote about Daniel. FYI, the world governments found in the statue of Daniel 2 are repeated in Daniel 7. The 10 horns there mirror the ten toes of chapter 2 with greater detail. A little horn is to come out of the ten horns that will last to the end of time. Identifying this little horn which is the beast with a mark of Revelation 13 and the harlot of Revelation 17 is important to all living. My point was knowing this would expose a lot of modern false doctrine and its roots. As far as the Sabbath day goes you state ''the problem with Sabbath believers is that the are observing the day and not the Lord of the day''. Wow, you must be a prophet or have a crystal ball under your bed. How do you know whats in another's heart? You don't! Thats a foolish and ignorant statement so I'll pretend you didn't make it. Finally it seems your into the old feast days and some eternal Sabbath rest thing which is a little to far out for me. If the book your promoting got you in the doctrinal mess your in, sorry, im not interested. Love Mike
“It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and all other Christians, that the Bible does not support them anywhere in their observance of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church.”
-Rev. Brady, in an address, reported in the Elizabeth, N.J. 'News' of March 18, 1903
*Quite clear and simple... Open your eyes people and follow the Bible and Christ Himself.
Acts 3:6-7 - Peter works the first healing of the apostles
Acts 3:6-7 - Peter works the first healing of the apostles
Acts 5:3 - Peter declares the first anathema of Ananias and Sapphira which is ratified by God, and brings about their death.
Acts 5:15 - Peter's shadow has healing power. No other apostle is said to have this power.
Acts 8:20-23 - Peter casts judgment on Simon's quest for gaining authority through the laying on of hands
Infallibility doesn't mean sinlessness
i am a former 7th day adventist and this guy is totally correct. the sda church is a cult started in the 1800s by break away baptists and methodists. the sda church has the same false prophet as the likes of jehovas witnesses and mormons and of the most heretical teachings is their view of Christ as being the arch angel micheal. I am now a Catholic and am now a part of the true religion of God where Jesus Christ is God. there is no command for christians to keep the jewish sabbath, only the israelite jews.
+Andruch Don Centella Shalom! Your statement, "there is no command for Christians to keep the jewish Sabbath, only the Israelite jews" is false! No offense intended! Hebrews 8: 7-9 may shock you! Verse 8 states, "I will make a new covenant with _______and __________! All the covenants were made with ___________! If one is not in covenant with Yah, regardless of what they call themselves or their group, they're lost!!
Shalom!
+Andruch Don Centella good on you for seeking the truth God bless
+muata Heb 8:9 says, "NOT like the covenant I made with their fathers." You defeated your own argument. Duh...
dinopad10 ...you quoted Hebrews 8:9, now understand three reasons why you stopped at verse 9.
The very next verse (10) is the end to your argument!
Reason #1 God is making the new covenant with the House Of Israel and the House of Judah as he did with all of his covenants!!
(Not the Gentiles, Not the Catholic Church)
Reason #2 What is the New Covenant?
Answer: verse 10, This is the covenant..."I will put my LAWS into their mind, write them upon their hearts
(Laws that Gentiles say were abolished).
God's people (Hebrew Israelites) teach the same words that proceed out of the mouth of the Messiah, "until Heaven and Earth pass not one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law...")Matthew 5:18
Has Heaven and Earth passed? Are they still here? Yes, so the Law has not pass, not one jot or one title!
Reason #3 ...I will be to them a God and they shall be to me a people (You stated earlier, "God rejected the Jews...the Jews are no longer God's people...the Gentiles of the Catholic Church are now the people of God)
However, it's there in verse 10, ...I will be to them a God! who are the "them" Yah is speaking about?
Answer: the House of Israel and the House of Judah!!)
Quoting Hebrews 8:9 and leaving out verse 10 speaks volumes about your heart's intent
I don't think he left out verse 10 on purpose because God is a God to all who believe in Jesus Christ and that are baptised into the holy trinity and when you read at the end of the chapter Hebrews 8:13 it says what they are talking about that the new covenant, he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. So the old covenant is obsolete and would vanish away so we don't follow the old covenant of the Sabbath, new moon, annual feast days, and unclean foods
The way I see it, Sunday is the last day of the week. Technically we say that Sunday is the first day of the week, but practically everyone thinks as Monday as the first day of the week, because that's the day we go back to work. So not only is Sinday the first day, but it's also the last day of the week. And is not Jesus the Alpha and Omega, th beginning and the end"?
Thanks for the video, it makes it pretty clear, but acording to some people there's going to be a lot of godly people in hell because they worshipped the Lord on Sunday instead of Saturday. Ignatius, Augustine, Luther, Armenius John and Charles Wesley, Whitfield, Finney, Spurgeon, Taylor, Judson, Graham, Wilkerson, mother Teresa, my dad etc.., I assume those who are tied to Saturday worship (which by the way the word "Saturday" comes from the name of the god Saturn) also believe we must worship in the temple, even though Jesus said the building was no longer necessary. But that He wants to be worshipped in spirit and truth, not the letter of the law.
The lords day is a invention of man,The Sabbath is decreed by God
The Lords Day is of The New Covenant of Jesus Christ. If you have a problem with it, take it up with Him.
Also the Lord gave us the power to bind and loose on earth. Go on with your Sabbath, we have no quarrel with that. We are only interested in the Lord's day.
Wrong. Exodus 31:16 clearly states that the Sabbath is the covenant of God with the Jews. Well, sir, that covenant is over! (Heb. 8:13). It was replaced by the New Covenant, which fulfilled it in Christ. The Sabbath pointed to the day of rest when the Messiah came.
Now if you want to continue denying that the Messiah has come by worshiping on Saturday, and if you want to be under Jewish Old Covenant law - have at it! Just don't call yourself a Christian because we believe Christ has come
""For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all."
(James 2:10)"
ANSWER:
James 2:8 "If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing right.
What is the Sabbath all about? Lets recap your body is the temple of the HOLY SPIRIT He is giving you the opportunity to live and do everything 6 days of the week all He ask is the Sabbath day to give Him a day of rest Saturday the same day He asked for the earth to rest this is why you could not use your ox or donkey understand this in our terms tractor or car or radio or TV because He asked to be silent. Zec_2:13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation. Sunday is used for a day of work and Satan is working very hard to keep you praying for him.
Jimmy, I loved your book "The Fathers know best". And I love your superman t-shirt.
Keep fighting the good fight. Pax et bonum.
The Bible tells us we shouldn't even be calling people outside of God and our biological father, a father.
Team Jesus That's totally wrong. There is a cultural and historical context to Jesus' statement which you are ignoring.
Team Jesus No, the Bible does not make an exception for a biological father. It says, "Call NO MAN father..." emphasis mine.
A few Bible verses you might consider.
Lk 16:24; Rom 4; 1 Cor 4:14-15; Acts 7:2; 1 Thess 2:11; 1 Jn 2:13-14
Jimmy you are changing Gods law which he warned you not to do , making you a lier. Nuff said
