As I was watching this bible study to help define carnal Christianity and how to avoid it
(Eph. 17-24).
The teacher spoke on v. 17 saying that we are to not follow the Gentiles and the futility of their thinking. He broke this down using examples like focusing too much on your job, your salary, building a family and even education can cause us to think like the Gentiles because it's thinking of things that are temporary and worldly as opposed to filling ourselves daily with God's word. I may have misinterpreted what he said but I took a step to ask the question :
Should Christians attend college if their major/studies is not related to ministry?
(I should mention I am a history major so it's somewhat helpful to my faith)
But is college worth it, to get a degree and a job in the secular worth or is it better to devote my life to full-time ministry?
In addition to this question, should I, as a believer be keeping the sabbath?
Romans 7 speaks on keeping the law while living under grace and even Hebrews 4:9-11 talks about making an effort to enter the Sabbath rest. I'm just lost since I am a Sunday worshipper. I am aware that the day of worship was changed to Sunday during the time of Constantine when the Catholic church had full power.
Hope you can help, thanks!
God bless
