Doesn't say Lord's day in scripture but we have evidence in scripture that the first day of the week, Sunday was when they met. Acts 20:7 (NASB) 7 On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight. 1 Corinthians 16:2 (NASB) 2 On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come. Also we see in the writings of the church Fathers that they did indeed meet on Sunday which they considered the Lord's day. In fact some Jews that clung to the old would meet on the Sabbath day with fellow Jews and then with Christians on Sunday. Both Paul and the writer of Hebrews wrote against the practice of holding onto Jewish traditions. Interestingly the Lord's day became synonymous with the day of the Second coming of the Lord. 1Cor 1:8; 1Th5:2; 2Pet 3:10 |

I always took the encouragement in 1 Tim 4:13 to attend the public reading of scripture meant he wanted people to go to the synagogue to listen because who else would have scrolls. I think 2 Pet 3:15-16 is the only place calling New Testament writings scripture. Paul says he didn't circumcise Titus in Gal 2:3 but Acts 16:1-3 he does circumcise Timothy. Paul fulfills a vow himself in Acts 18:18 and then takes 4 men to fulfill a vow with a sacrifice at the temple in Acts 21:21-26 to show people that he isn't encouraging them not to circumcise or follow their customs. It also makes it sound like maybe there was a push of Noahide law only on the Gentiles in the guidelines James (Acts 15:19-21). | ||||||
