Does the day of Christ resurrection tell us to worship on Sunday?

From what I have been told the OT Jewish Calendar ...

No such thing in scripture. Moses was Hebrew of Levi, not of Judah. Zipporah wasn't even that, neither the mixed multitude that came out of Egypt. The Calendar in scripture belongs to God, since God created it (even beginning with Genesis). It is God's calendar, and especially the feasts given in Leviticus 23.

Heart2Soul said:

and the calendar we use today is not in sync with each other..

Whomever told this to you, erred greatly, and several citations from scripture, from Jesus, and even historically (and currently) may be provided upon request. The 7th day back then in Genesis, is the same 7th day we have today. Time has not been lost or misplaced.

Heart2Soul said:

...also there are many people who keep everyday as Holy unto the Lord.

Click to expand...

That is impossible, and man-centric religion. Only God can make something holy, see Genesis 2:1-3. God did not make every day of the week, "holy", but rather, only a specific one, the 7th day (Exodus 20:8-11). Therefore, man cannot keep that 'holy' which was never made "holy" by God, unless they are attempting to place themselves in the place of God?

Heart2Soul said:

...and the "rest" isn't that what we enter when we are saved? We enter into His Rest. ...

Click to expand...

"His rest" (Hebrews 4), refers directly to Genesis 2:1-3, the 7th day. In short (much more detailed upon request):

Hebrews 3-4 (among many others; John 14:15; Exodus 20:6; Isaiah 56:1,8; John 10:16; Isaiah 56:2-7, Acts 4:24, 14:15; Revelation 10:6, 14:6-7, &c).

Hebrews 3-4 is clear.

Hebrews 4:3, "my (God's) rest" and "the works were finished from the foundation of the world", which is a direct reference to Genesis 2:1-3. It even uses the word "finished". God rested the 7th day in Genesis 2:1-3. It is His rest, the 7th day, the sabbath (rest) of the LORD thy God, Exodus 20:8-11.

Hebrews 4:4, "he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works", which "certain place" is Genesis 2:1-3; re-cited in Exodus 20:8-11. The 7th day the sabbath (rest) of the LORD thy God.

Hebrews 4:5, "my (God's) rest)", citing Psalms 95, which is citing Genesis 2:1-3; Exodus 20:8-11, etc. Again, this is the 7th day the sabbath (rest) of God at Creation in Genesis 2:1-3.

Hebrews 4:6, "remaineth", from when? "from the foundation of the world" as per Hebrews 4:3 and thus it is not new, but has been around from the beginning.

Hebrews 4:9, "rest", sabbatismos, literally and truly sabbath keeping in scripture and in all known extant Greek sources, dictionaries, and so on and again "remaineth".

Hebrews 4:10, "his (God's) rest", which is the 7th day the sabbath (rest) of the LORD thy God from Genesis 2:1-3., "as God did from his (works)", which "works were finished from the foundation of the world" as per Hebrews 4:3.

Hebrews 4:11, "that rest" (ie God's rest), the 7th day the sabbath (rest) of the LORD thy God.

Heart2Soul said:

...and finally do you really think God will deny us passage into heaven because we gathered in an assembly to worship Him on Sunday, or Monday or whatever day?

Click to expand...

This is the strawman, or the non-sequitur argument. It is not what Seventh-day Adventist (etc) are saying. What we teach, from scripture, is that those who knowingly (not in ignorance, which God winks at, but still commands all to repent; Acts 17:30), transgress God's Law, shall not enter Heaven, where there is no sin (1 John 3:4; Romans 7:7, etc).

The body of believers may gather on any and every day with no injunction anywhere found in scripture against such, and in truth they met "daily", "continually", etc (Mat 26:55; Mar 14:49; Luk 22:53, 24:33,36; Acts 19:9) and likewise among the followers of Jesus Christ (Luk 24:51,53; Acts 1:3,9, 2:46-47, 5:42, 6:1, 16:5, 17:11,17; Heb 3:13, etc).

What we are saying is that such gathering on any and every day, does not negate that all mankind ought to keep the 4th Commandment (Exodus 20:8-11), which covers the whole week, not just the 7th day, and even the whole creation.

Heart2Soul said:

Isn't it the heart of man that will be judged?

Click to expand...

All things will be judged, whether good or evil, and the whole person, not just heart, but all deeds, words and thoughts. See Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; 2 Corinthians 5:10, etc.

I have strong issues with those who continually present a strawman, and make a caricature of the doctrine, and attempt by human reasoning to relegate God's explicit commandment to obscurity and do not listen to what we are saying in verity. All in scriptural "charity"/love (1 Cor. 13) of course.

Revelation 14:6-12 is warning, even right now, the whole world.

God is to be worshipped 24/7/365. That is not the matter. The matter is for those claiming to worship the true and living Creator God, do they honour Their Father in Heaven in keeping His commandments, especially the 4th:

Kindly give an unambiguous confession of what you believe concerning the Day of Christian worship-rest? I am at a total loss at understanding you and draw conclusions that can be wrong and give offence.

Please tell me plainly, Do you believe "the DAY the Seventh Day is the Sabbath Rest-Day of the LORD GOD", YOUR Lord and God?

What is your reason for believing so (if you so believe)?
Only because it is the Fourth of the Ten Commandments, or, first, because Jesus Christ rose from the dead "on the Sabbath" in fulfilment of God's unchangeable Word of Purpose and Promise in Eternal Covenant of Grace?

Jesus Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, "the next day" from leaving Lazarus' house, Hosanna! - [John 12:12,13; Matthew 21:10; Mark 11:11], goes to the Temple, and after looking around, leaves, since it was close to evening back out unto Mt. Olivet.

So then,

Abib 10 <<the first [day] of the week Jesus Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, "the next day" from leaving Lazarus' house, Hosanna! - [John 12:12,13; Matthew 21:10; Mark 11:11], goes to the Temple, and after looking around, leaves, since it was close to evening back out unto Mt. Olivet.>>


But you have not noticed that Matthew does not tell what Mark tells in verse 11, that <<after looking around, (Jesus) leaves, since it was close to evening back out unto Mt. Olivet.>> Does Mark add, or does Matthew omit or and add?


Do you say neither adds or omits? We’ll see.

He leaves out Matthew 21:11 "This is Jesus the Prophet" the unmistakable call on <Jesus Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem> on <[the first [day] of the week]>;

And he adds Matthew 21:12 "He went into temple and cast out all that sold", to Matthew 21:15, "children shouting in the temple" which unmistakably happened on <[the third [day] of the week]> after ReChoire had wilfully omitted Mark 11:12-14 “the morning ... from Bethany ... fig tree” = Matthew 21:18,19 “to the city ... fig tree” and Mark 11:15-17 “into the temple ... chased out the traders” = Luke 19:45,46 “into temple chased out traders”

And he again leaves out the further things which happened on [the second [day] of the week] so that he can change days and times of the Christ of God--
Matthew 21:12 "He went into temple and cast out all that sold"
Also on the same day, ‘Monday’...

More straw. Nowhere is anyone claiming to work for their salvation. You have no argument. Look at what you just posted why don't you? What's the problem? "unbelief". You don't believe, so you're really just convicting yourself. You just pretend that people are claiming that they must keep the law to be saved when no one is making that claim at all. Pathetic.
