Subject: The Lord's Day--Does It Matter? |
Bible Note: The Lord's Day--Does It Matter? 'Sunday, as we call it, has always been and is today, among Christians worldwide, the day of worship, and that poses the question, “Why”? Is it arbitrary? Is it traditional? Who started it? How did it get started? How are we to conduct ourselves on this day? 'Well, many churches today want to give people as much of Sunday as they possibly can for them to do what they want, so they have reduced Sunday worship to a one-hour, sort of non-intrusive experience that you can have on your way to the beach, or to the ball game. It’s extremely casual; it’s sort of a “drop-by” deal that doesn’t intrude--you sort of “slot” it in between “brunch” and “beach”...There are many churches that offer a Saturday night service, because it is too dark to play anyway, and that leaves Sunday completely free for games and recreation and the mall. Does that matter?...I think it does.' --John MacArthur ____________________ www.biblebb.com |
