The
question often arises as to whether or
not C hristians should worship on Sunday or the Sabbath (Saturday).
There is a consistency in Scripture as
to either day. The Sabbath is consistent
with Israel while Sunday is consistent
with the Church.
Example:
Acts 20:7 is a passage that provides
the clearest evidence that the New
Testament churches assembled on the
first day of the week. In fact, this was
the primary service of the week. Paul
stayed in Troas one full week. Then on
Sunday, when the disciples came together
to break bread, Paul preached unto them.
Paul consistently preached on the Jewish
Sabbath as well, because that was the
day the Jews would gather in the
synagogues. On Sunday it would be
virtually empty. But when Paul gathered
for fellowship with the church, it was on
Sunday, as revealed here (Acts
20:7) and in
1 Corinthians 16:2. Sunday was the
day they received offerings; Sunday was
the day they observed the Lord's Supper.
The teachings of the apostles agree with
this practice. Several other references
are clearly made to the Sabbath (Rom.
14:5,6;
Gal. 4:9-11). In each of these
passages Christians are urged not to
allow the Sabbath to become an issue.
Why? Because Saturday nor Sunday is the
Christian's Sabbath. We worship a
Person, not a day. Every day is to be
holy to the Lord. Jesus Christ is
our Sabbath (rest).
