    Hello! The other day, I was discussing Sabbatarianism on a thread, and @Torah Keeper said that the Acts of John (Apocryphal) supports the view that the Lord's Day is Saturday. Here's the text in question: And on the seventh day, it being the Lord's day, he said to them: Now it is time for me...

    Ok so almost everyone knows that "The seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD (YHWH)" Ex 20:10 ======================= Questions 1. Can it be edited to point to "week day 1" instead? Some/many would say "no", and that no one can edit God's Law. 2. Can the "Holy day of the Lord" be the...

    Is a Christian really subject to the OT Law?

    I John 4 11 Dear friends, if this is how God loved us, then we should love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God, but if we love one another, God lives in union with us, and his love is made perfect in us. 13 We are sure that we live in union with God and that he lives in union with us...
