A yearly feast? Are you suggesting God said to keep the yearly feasts over obeying the 4th commandment? I would need a verse for that. The apotles never took it that way as we see throughout Acts.
Was it on the first day of the week? That's the question, not whether it replaced the Sabbath. That is not the issue here. It is simply that there is no biblical commandment forbidding worship of God on the first day of the week, and at times it occurred (however often that might be; this is not about any weekly replacement of the Sabbath) on the first day, even in the OT calendar.
I never said there was forbidding worship of God on any day of the week, so you're making up your own argument.
It is, however, historical. Every church established by the Apostles and the Seventy, from England to India, all worshipped primarily on Sunday.
The Apostles preached the resurrection every day.
Show me one passage in Scripture where the apotles worshipped primary on Sunday and taught anyone to lay aside the commandment of God for mans traditions. You keep using your words as if its the same as Scripture.
@reddogs did.
It is a different argument and one I am not making. See the above context of my statement.
Context. Its in the context of replacing the 4th commandment, with something God never commanded. God told us to work six days Exo20:9 to keep the seventh day Sabbath holy Exo20:8-11 not elevate a working day over God's holy say that He blessed and sanctified. We should devote ourselves to God 365/24/7 false worship according to Jesus is laying aside God's commandments, laying aside our fear of God and keeping His commandments Exo20:20 Ecc12:13-14 Rev12:6-12 over our fear of God through mans traditions. Isa 29:13 Mat15:3-14
Not the question. I don't believe in Sunday as a replacement for the Sabbath. The question is did Pentecost in Acts 2 occur on the first day of the week?
Also, context would indicate that @The Liturgist does not set aside the Sabbath either. He worships God on both days. So, again, perhaps reddogs is not justified in criticizing him for worshipping on Sunday as well as on Sabbath.
I believe it did, although Scripture doesn't say. The feast days came after the Sabbath Exo20:11, after sin and the fall and never was a replacement to God's commandments. The apotles never looked at the yearly feast of Pentecost as a replacement to keeping the commandments of God, including the 4th commandment as we see plainly in Acts. So if you're trying to turn the yearly feast into a weekly feast, that is not Biblical.
History shows what was taught by the Apostles. Churches that were geographically remote from each other all had the same liturgical practices and all worshipped primarily on Sunday.
I used "Sunday" because that is what the 1st day is called in English speaking cultures. If we were discussing this in Greek then I would call it "Kuriaki" which means "of the Lord". If we were discussing this in Latin then the Church called it "Dies Dominica" which means "Lord's day". It is the same in Russian, "Voskrisinye" means "Lord's day"
Not from Scripture, what man says, speaking over what God said Exo20:10 Isa 58:13 Mark2:28
I think we are seeing a desperate search for a way to NOT see he already said he was keeping Sabbath by resting and worshiping.
Not what I would say Sophia, I put what God gave the days for, and only one is the Sabbath made at Creation. Now if you say another day is to be used for worship, that is what caused the problem in the first place, so I would tend to say better not to cross that line or tempt it as Tall was doing.
