"Jesus gave this authority to the Apostles and His Church, Matthew 10:40; 16:19; 18:18-20; Luke 10:16, including the sabbath, Colossians 2:16-22." Col. 2:16-17 isn't even talking about the sevbenth-day Sabbath in the first place and Paul is telling the believers to not let outsiders judge them on the what they were doing but rather to submit to the judgment of the church as a whole.

djconklin, 1 Tim 3:15. Submitting to the judgement of the Church as a whole is what Church authority derived from Jesus, including changing the day of worship, is about. But I realize my opinion on authority and Tradition is a minority opinion on the forum, just as yours appears to be on Sabbath worship, and we are in disagreement on this matter. Emmaus |

My point is that the Bible is being made to say things that it does not say and that the church cannot do anything that is contrary to the Word of God--something 1 Tim. 3:15 confirms. We should not be in disagreement on a matter of theology. | ||||||

I am not sure if I undestand you correctly. Are you agreeing with my original post in which I took the position that Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath and He transferred his power to bind and loose to the apostles which applies also to the shifting of the day of worship to Sunday? I thought you were taking the position that the change was an unbiblical corruption of God's law indicating the corruption of the early Church. Perhaps I misunderstood. |

The latter is correct. Historical evidence indicates that most of the early church kept the Sabbath till at least the 5th century. If the day of worship was changed by fiat of either the apostles or the church then this is not understandable. If, on the other hand, the change was a reaction to external events and that latter the whole church changed over then it is understandable but still unbiblical. Neither the church nor the apostles had the right to change any of God's holy laws. |
