1 | Saturday a day of worship? | Col 2:16 | justme | 225180 | ||
The progran "The Jewish Jesus" is very interesting to see how Jews worshiped in time of Christ. Is there any reason not to use Saturday as the day of worship instead of Sunday. Can either day of worship not be justified in Scripture? I know why we worship on Sunday, but can Saturday be justified as well? |

2 | Saturday a day of worship? | Col 2:16 | Makarios | 225181 | ||
Greetings Justme! You ask, "Is there any reason not to use Saturday as the day of worship instead of Sunday?" Colossians 2:16 definitely leaves this open to suggestion since this verse justifies worship of the Lord on any day, not just on Saturday or Sunday. But with that said, there are some very good reasons why Christians currently do worship on Sunday. Whether Jesus was resurrected on Saturday or Sunday is debatable, but He definitely made His first post resurrection appearance on a Sunday (Matthew 28:1) and continued His appearances on succeeding Sundays (John 20:19,26). The Holy Spirit came on a Sunday (Acts 2:1). The early church regularly worshipped on Sunday (Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2), and Sunday was called "the Lord's Day" in Revelation 1:10. Since Christians are saved by grace through faith alone and not under compulsion to keep Saturday as the Sabbath (Romans 6:14; Gal. 3:24,25; Hebrews 4:1-10, 7:12), then Sunday has been considered "the Lord's Day" and worship has commenced on Sunday ever since. The Sabbath of which is spoken of in Hebrews 4:1-10 is arguably now more meaningful on Sunday than that of the Jews on Saturday, since we can now commemorate both the completion of God's work in creation and the completion of His work of salvation! But it is probably pointless to argue whether we should observe the Sabbath day, or "the Lord's Day", on Saturday or Sunday in light of Colossians 2:16. As for corporate, civic worship, there are good reasons for why worship takes place on Sunday. Personally, I believe that we should be praying and worshipping God individually on every day of the week! Blessings to you, Makarios |

Makarios. In the Jewish Jesus program, this converted Rabbi still wares the full garb and feels that to win other Jews to Jesus he is convicted to worship on Saturday. This makes me feel uneasy, much like SDA. I personally agree with your opinion. Blessings. justme |
