1 | Keep the Sabbath Holy? | Bible general Archive 3 | DocTrinsograce | 190976 | ||
Dear onlyme, Briefly, what I was trying to say is that it is clear that the practice of the observance of the Sabbath on Sunday had been established by the apostles before Hebrews 4 was penned. Sabbatarianism was promoted by Judaizers at least as early as 56 AD, because of Paul's admonition to the gentile believers in Colossians 2:16b. This topic has been run into the ground long before we discussed it, and well past the point of rendering any real value to our forum readers. I expect that anything that can be said about it has already been said. The full spectrum of opinion -- and imagination -- on the topic can be found using the search option. Let us move on to other Biblical topics for the edification of us all. In Him, Doc |

Dear Doc, You may find these quotes interesting. "The primitive Christians did keep the Sabbath of the Jews;...therefore the Christians, for a long time together, did keep their conventions upon the Sabbath, in which some portions of the law were read: and this continued till the time of the Laodicean council." "The Whole Works" of Jeremy Taylor, Vol. IX,p. 416 (R. Heber's Edition, Vol XII, p. 416). "The ancient Christians were very careful in the observance of Saturday, or the seventh day...It is plain that all the Oriental churches, and the greatest part of the world, observed the Sabbath as a festival...Athanasius likewise tells us that they held religious assembles on the Sabbath, not because they were infected with Judaism, but to worship Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath, Epiphanius says the same." "Antiquities of the Christian Church," Vol.II Book XX, chap. 3, sec.1, 66. 1137,1138. Ocelot |
