Tulc, the purpose of this whole thread is to see if Protestants obey the Ten Commandments, at least the fourth one by going to church..capice?? :)

The Fourth Commandment: "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy."


Where do you see, "Attend Mass every Sunday" there?


Just wondering...



Thanks!


Pax!

You know this is NOT an issue on what day it falls on like many of you constantly keep implying...for God's sake, in the Catholic church we have a Mass every day 3 on Saturday 4 on Sunday. We have sunday as our Sabbath because that is what it is. Now obviously non-Catholics see it another way. That's fine as long as you KEEP THE SABBATH HOLY. I feel like a broken record...:p But I do have a lot of respect for my seperated brethren because they truly love god, even if we don't agree on things. The main thing is Jesus Christ who died for us. We will see when judgement day comes...:angel:

Well in point of fact YOU aren't keeping the Sabbath either by attending church on Sunday. :sorry: So I guess you're in the same boat as us Protestants. ;)

It is what it is. don't try to dissect everything..

The Sabbath was rest from labor, as God rested on the Seventh Day, not the eighth day which is what Sunday is. Capice? Comprende? :angel:

People had to stay in their houses on the Sabbath Day and not do any work or move around at all according to the Pharisees who took it overboard. This is why the Pharisees say to Jesus and the disciples "Look, they are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath!" (Jesus and his disciples were picking corn to eat because they were hungry). And Jesus says to the Pharisees... "If you knew I desire Mercy, not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the innocent..."

Done with lesson one for the day.

So what are you asking? If Protestants worship on the Sabbath? Or are you asking if they go to church at all? :scratch:

GENESIS 1:31 GOD LOOKED AT EVERYTHING HE HAD MADE, AND HE FOUND IT VERY GOOD. EVENING CAME, AND MORNING FOLLOWED---THE SIXTH DAY.

GEGESIS 2:1 THUS THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH AND ALL THEIR ARRAY WAS COMPLETED. 2:2 SINCE ON THE SEVENTH DAY GOD WAS FINISHED WITH THE WORK HE HAD BEEN DOING, HE RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL THE WORK HE HAD UNDERTAKEN. 2:3 SO GOD BLESSED THE SEVENTH DAY AND MADE IT HOLY, BECAUSE ON IT HE RESTED FROM ALL THE WORK HE HAD DONE IN CREATION.

You see here that god made the seventh day Holy. You cannot deny this holy Scripture.

And the Catholic church, to which you belong, deemed the Sabbath to now be the 1st day instead of the 7th day. So, we ask again, what is your point?

Okay, so hold Saturday special. That's fine with me.
But what does that have to do with attending Mass every Sunday?

It's ok Dave, they want to just go around the question by keep saying the Sabbath is on a certain day, yet they won't answer the question. The more I hear from these seperated brethren, the more thankful I am a roman Catholic.
I think the point they were making is that if they exact day is not essential, then is the exact method essential?

Took the words right out of my mouth.
Oh, so you admit that you don't have a clue? Should have mentioned that earlier, would have saved us all some time.

***if you are implying that you think I don't have a clue as to what your point is here, I'd just like to say "I sure don't!" I would think that was made apparent to you when I asked you (at least twice) what your point/question was . . . . However, you can't even answer that question for yourself . . . . . . :confused:
