Subject: When did the day of worship change? |
Bible Note: Dear brother if some people in the early church change sunday for sabbath, they were wrong. Many members of early christians kept Sabbath as the Lord has spoken. All of you believe the apostles kept sunday and thats not true. They kept Sabbath, because they undersatnd perfectly that Jesus did'nt came to abolish the Law. With Jesus death, they understood obedience is a demonstration of salvation. They began to obey because they were already saved and not in order to obtain salvation. The majority of you think taht between the Law and the Grace exist contraposition. And that's not true. They complement each other. Let me explain: ¿for what do you need the grace? to be saved. Saved from what? From your sin. And what is sin? Transgression of the Law (disobedience). So if the Law doesn't exist how do you know waht is sin? (Paul explians that in Rom 7:7). Do you see? the grace is the gift to be saved from sin. when you're saved you demonstrate your gratitude by the obedience to your Saviour. that's why God take His people from Egypt and THEN He gaves them His Law. First, He gaves freedom and then, when you're free from sin (Egypt), He explains his will for you in order to be happy(expressed in the 10 Commandments, basically). I do not obey the Law in order to find salvation. I'm saved by the blood of Christ and that's a free gift. But, now that I'm saved I will obey because I love my Saviour. That's why He always said if you love me then obey me. (John 14:15) and (1 Jhon 2:4). You'll find none verse about the divine validation of sunday as a day of the Lord, but you can find at least 10 verses about Sabbath as the day of the Lord. Think about it... I pray the Holy Ghost talks to you and explains this theme. Sorry if I have been rude or vague. I'm just human. your brother in Christ, Yoshua |
