heres a quote from a previous post of yours:
Which is louder: the voice of your flesh or the voice of God?
Which is louder: the voice of wanting to do your will or the voice of God?
so lets apply that to the sabbath question, would you rather keep sunday, because YOU think its a better day than the God-appointed sabbath? "hey, i think i like the part in the bible where Jesus forgave the people who killed him, on Friday. im gonna start keeping my sabbath on friday." we dont do that, do we? so why should we choose which day is Gods sabbath? "Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath" so we keep God's sabbath and Jesus' Sabbath, one in the same.
Also, the first day of the week is sunday, how do we know? the jews since their time with Jesus have kept the seventh-day sabbath without ceasing. every seventh day they went to church and worshipped.(maybe not the holocaust but even then most kept it in their homes or in the camps)
You can even check historical records, they will tell you clearly that saturday is the seventh day. the monday thing in europe must be a new thing, because i know most of us havent heard of it. maybe they changed it in europe because thats where the "beast"(from revelation) lives in Rome, and influences what happens in europe greatly. most people in europe are of sunday keeping religion, so why not change the calendar to say that sunday is the seventh day? everyone keeps it that way anyways, and it eliminates their problem.
Daniel 7:25
He will speak against the Most High and oppress his saints and try to change the set times and the laws. The saints will be handed over to him for a time, times and half a time. [ 7:25 Or [ for a year, two years and half a year.
This text predicts the uprising of the catholic church. the catholic church changed the times, saturday sabbath to sunday sabbath. it also changed the laws, the commandments were changed in wording and one was removed, and another was split in two. read the commandments in the catholic bible and then in NIV or KJV. THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!!! ALL OTHER RELIGIONS WERE OPPRESSED BY THE CATHOLIC CHURCH!!! for a time, times and half a time(in prophetic time, a day is a year in prophecy, Ezekiel 4:6,so this is 1260 years when the pope controlled countries and ruled over kings. look it up in history)
then, after 1260 years, the french general capture the pope and he was executed. "then the beasts wound was healed, and everyone marveled at the beasts power, whose wound was healed" later, another pope was elected, but he didnt have as much power as before.
So the catholic church was the little horn told of in daniel 7, and the best of the sea in revelation. and even now, the church leaders admit to changing the day and say that the pope has power over the bible. they challenge any protestant to prove biblically why they worship on sunday. there is a reward for anyone who can convince them, but none have succeeded.
so, i've proven your first sunday defense to be weak and not supported by scripture. please, tell me another.
