All right if you don't like the word "Gentile" then replace it with "Non-Jewish Christians". Where is the specific verse in the new testament that commands non-Jewish Christians to observe a seventh day sabbath (or on any other day for that matter)? It's not there.

Which ever way you wish to say it. If you are not a part of God's ISRAEL then you have no part in the NEW COVENANT promise. Gentiles are now grafted in to God's ISRAEL because they have been given the ORACLES of GOD (Romans 3:1-2). All God's people (ISRAEL) are to live by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4). This is God's ISRAEL those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD.

God's 4th Commandment is one of the 10 Commandments of God's ETERNAL LAW that give us a KNOWLEDGE of what SIN is (Romans 3:20; 7:7; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4) and lead us to Christ.

Your argument is a strawman as all God's people are God's ISRAEL if they BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD. Gentiles are now grafted into God's ISRAEL (Romans 11:16-27). If you are not a part of God's ISRAEL you have no part in the NEW COVENANT.

Jesus and all the Apostles all taught and followed all of God's 10 Commandments through faith, including God's 4th Commandment Sabbath.

These scritpures are all through the NEW COVENANT. MORE SCRIPTURE SUPPORT HERE CLICK ME.

You might have more of a point if you were claiming that ALL laws of Torah should be followed (besides those specifically requiring the Temple since there is no Temple currently), but you are not.

Nevertheless, a *specific* scripture verse in the new testament commanding sabbath observation still hasn't been produced. Something that is apparently of essential importance should be clearly commanded throughout the new testament, but strangely is never commanded even once.

Why the MOSIAC BOOK of the COVENANT for remission of SIN (CIVIL, CEREMONIAL and ECCLESIASTICAL see dogma COL 2:14) contained many TORAH laws that pointed to Jesus and God's plan of salvation and were fulfilled in Christ and the NEW COVENANT promises. These are the SHADOW laws outlined in HEBREWS and other sections of the NEW TESTAMENT scriptures. That is why we no longer do animal sacrifices or stone someone for breaking any of the Commandments.

Well that is statement has no truth in it at all. You were trying to make a strawman argument to try and say that because Gentiles are different to the Jews they do not need to be obedient to God's Law (10 Commandments) which give us a KNOWLEDGE of what sin is. Yet it is this same law that leads us to Christ that we might be justified by faith and give us a knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20; 7:7; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4; Galatians 3:24)

This was shown to be a false argument because God's WORD tells us that Gentiles are now grafted in to God's ISRAEL who are defined as those who BELIEVE and FOLLOW God's WORD (Romans 11:16-27).

MORE SCRIPTURE SUPPORT LINKED CLICK ME (God's ISRAEL who are they?).

If you are not a part of God's ISRAEL you have no part in the NEW COVENANT PROMISE.

Jesus and all the APOSTLES all taught and kept the 10 commandments including God's 4th Commandment which is the 7th Day Sabbath all through the OLD and NEW Testament scriptures.

If God's LAW (including the 4th Commandment Sabbath) were no longer a requirement there would be no need to teach them in the NEW TESTAMENT.

Fact is it is God's LAW gives us a KNOLEDGE of what SIN is and lead us to Christ so that we might be justified by FAITH. (Romans 3:20; 7:7; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4) and are taught all through the OLD AND NEW Testament scriptures and are the very standard of the OLD and NEW COVENANTS and the judgment to come and are the KNOWLEDGE of good and evil.

SCRIPTURE SUPPORT LINKED CLICK ME (Jesus and the Apostles all taught God's LAW).

What did Jesus and the Apostles teach about the Sabbath in the New Testament?

1. It is lawful to do good on the Sabbath (Matt 12:1-8; 10-12; 24:20; Mark 3:1-5; Luke 6:1-10; 13:14-16; 14:1-5; John 7:22-23; 9:14; Mark 1:21; Mark 6:2; Luke 4:16; 31; Luke 14:1; 23:56)
2. Jesus made the Sabbath for all mankind (Hebrews 1:2; John 1:1-3; 14; Ephesians 3:9; Colossians 1:16-17; Mark 2:27)
3. Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath (Mark 2:28)
4. If you do not believe and follow God you cannot enter His Sabbath rest (Hebrews 4)
5. It is one of God’s 10 commandments we break it we are guilty or breaking all (James 2:8-12)
6. Breaking it is sin (1 John 3:4)
7. God’s true followers keep it Holy as God commanded (Rev 14:12; Rev 22:14; Eze 20:20)
8. Jesus is our example and he kept the Sabbath (Matt 12:1-8; 10-12; 24:20; Mark 3:1-5; Luke 6:1-10; 13:14-16; 14:1-5; John 7:22-23; 9:14; Mark 1:21; Mark 6:2; Luke 4:16; 31; Luke 14:1; 23:56; John 2:6; Matt 16:24; 1 Cor 11:1; Eph 5:1-21; Pet 2:20-22)
9. The Apostle kept the Sabbath (Acts 13:14; 13:27; 13:44; 15:21; 16:13; 17:2; 18:4; Rev 1:10)

God’s Law in the NC is written on our hearts it is through love and it is love the fulfils God’s Law in us as we walk not after the flesh but after the spirit and is why Jesus says f you love me keep my commandments. (John 14:15; John 15:10). If we knowingly break one of God’s commandments we commit sin (1 John 3:4).

This includes the 7th Day Sabbath which Jesus made for us and commands us to keep as a holy day.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Hope this helps.

Hi Lost4words,

Yet in the link you provide from the Roman Catholic church website there is not a single scripture that says that God's 4th commandment has been abolished and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day?

This is a man made tradition that has lead many to break the commandments of God (4th Commandment Exodus 20:8-11).

God's WORD is very clear. If we follow the teachings and traditions of men that break the commandments of God then we are not following God...

MATTHEW 15:3-9
[3], But he answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
[4], For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother: and, He that curses father or mother, let him die the death.
[5], But you say, Whoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatever you might be profited by me;
[6], And honor not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have you made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
[7], You hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
[8], This people draws near to me with their mouth, and honors me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
[9], But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Who do we believe and follow? The teachings and traditions of men or the WORD of God? Only God's WORD is true and we should BELIEVE and FOLLOW it over the teachings and traditions of men that break the commandments of God.

.................

SIN is breaking any of God's 10 Commandments (Romans 7:7; Romans 3:20; James 2:11; 1 John 3:4) Those who CONTINUE in KNOWN UNREPENTANT SIN will NOT ENTER the KINGDOM of HEAVEN.

.................

God's 4th commandment is one of the ten (Exodus 20:8-11) If we knowingly break it when God asks us not to we stand guilty before God of committing sin (James 2:8-12). If we do not seek him in repentance and forgiveness we are in danger of the Judgement (Hebrews 10:26-27)

Sunday worship is a tradition and teaching of man that has led many to break the commandments of God. Jesus says that if we follow the traditions of man that break the commandments of God we are not following God (Matthew 15:3-9)

There is not one scripture in all of God's Word that says that God's 4th Commandment is now ABOLISHED and we are now commanded to keep Sunday as a Holy day.

In times of ignorance God winks at but when as knowledge of the truth has come God calls on all men everywhere to repent and believe his Word (Acts 17:30-31)

God's is calling his people to come out from following the traditions of men to worship him in Spirit and in truth.

Only God's WORD is true and we should believe and follow it over the teachings and traditions of men that break the commandments of God.

Hope this helps

So in a strange way you accidentially admit I am right, not wrong - the day of the Lord is not s7nday, it is "the last great day" - a particular day yet to be - not a day per se of the week.

No. Sunday is, IN GREEK SCRIPTURE, called "THE LORD"S DAY" (Κυριακή). Iif it were Saturday, it would have been called "Sabbato" (Σάββατο). The "last great day" is completely different, it not a particular day, not a day of the week.

You are arguing 2 different things. The Sabbath (the 7 day) is NOT on Sunday (the 1st day of the week). However, "Κυριακή" IS SUNDAY, NOT Saturday.

Κυριακή has been used for Sunday for almost 2000 years! THAT is FACT. Sorry if you can't face the facts...

The first day of the week coincides with the communion with Christ risen and the unity of the infant Church. The Holy Spirit mentions these significant moments as happening on the first day of the week. Jesus Resurrection. The appearance to the Apostles in a locked room. Not just once but the next week also. The Christian form of worship was centered on the breaking of bread. The only day mentioned for this is the first day of the week. Pentecost happened on the first day of the week. The Lord is choosing this day to give the disciples what they need to build the Church. The disciples follow by using that day. @LoveGodsWord why did God choose the first day of the week so many times for the major event of Christ and establishing the Church? If not the Lord's Day what is the significance of the first day of the week? What is it that the Holy Spirit is saying by choosing that day?



John 20 [Full Chapter]
[ The Resurrection of Jesus ] Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb.

Mark 16:9
[ The Longer Ending of Mark ] [ Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene ] [[Now after he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.

John 20:19
[
Jesus Appears to the Disciples ] When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

John 20:26
A week later his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were shut, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”



Acts 20:7
[ Paul’s Farewell Visit to Troas ] On the first day of the week, when we met to break bread, Paul was holding a discussion with them; since he intended to leave the next day, he continued speaking until midnight.


1 Corinthians 16:2
On the first day of every week, each of you is to put aside and save whatever extra you earn, so that collections need not be taken when I come.

No you have not. You have not been able to link the word used in Revelations 1:10 "Lords Day κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ to any scripture reference in the NEW TESTAMENT to μία the FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK.

κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ used in Revelations 1:10 is in reference to the Lord's ownership of the day. It does not say that this day is in reference to μία the FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK.

Your challenge in this OP is to prove that the Lord's DAY is in reference to the First day of the week and prove it from the scriptures.

Are you talking about Mia ton Sabbaton (μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων)? That is basically the day after the Sabbath, that would be the 1st day of the week. It is a description, not a name. However that day is CALLED "κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ".

Yes μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (First day of the week). This was the weekly day numbering system of the Jewish culture in the OLD and NEW Testament. There was no Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday during this time period in Jewish culture or scripture.

μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (First day of the week) was never called κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ in any NT scripture anywhere in NT GREEK as the word Sunday was never a naming convention in Jewish culture.

The week days were numbered around the Sabbath for example; First day (μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων; our Sunday; You will not find Sunday in the NEW TESTAMENT), Second day, Third day, Fourth day, Fifth day, Preparation day, Sabbath.

κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ means "Lord's Day" or the day the Lord's has ownership of. This is linked to Revelations 1:10 with John being in the Spirit of the Lord's Day. This reference of Revelations 1:10 and the Lord's day is not linked to μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK; latter Sunday) anywhere in the NEW TESTAMENT GREEK scriptures.

Yet we see the NEW TESTAMENT scripture of MATTHEW 12:8 links the "Lord's Day" κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ directly to the Sabbath day.

MATTHEW 12:8 [8] For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.

κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ directly means Lord's Day or day belonging to the Lord or Jesus

Jesus is the creator of the Sabbath where he rested after creating all things in Heaven and earth (John 1:1-3; Psalms 33:6; Colossians 1:16; 1 Corinthinas 8:6; John 1:10; Hebrews 1:2; Ephesians 3:9; Genesis 2:1-3). Jesus made the Sabbath for all mankind and set it aside as a HOLY day of rest for his people (Genesis 2:1-3; Exodus 20:8-11) hence "Lord day"

Looking at the scripture and the Jewish weekly day system it is very clear that κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ (The Lord's Day), scripture alone defines as the Sabbath day (Matthew 12:8). There is not one scripture reference linking κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ (The Lord's Day) to μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (First day of the week) which is the weekly day counting convention of the Jewish weekly system in all the New Testament scriptures.

This is why I asked you ealier to link Κυριακή (The Lord's Day) μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (First day of the week) in scripture because I knew you would not be able to as there are no scriptures linking κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ (The Lord's Day) to μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων (First day of the week).

The GREEK words for Sunday, Monday, Tesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday were never used in the OLD and NEW TESTAMENT scriptures only day one μία (First day) through to day 6, preparation day and Sabbath day (Seventh day). In the Jewish culture these name descriptions or conventions (day 1, day 2, day 3... preparation day and Sabbath) were what the names of the weekly days were called in NEW TESTAMENT times as all the week days revolved around the Sabbath and this was the week day naming convention.

There is no link to Sunday in the NEW Testament scriptures as Sunday is not there because this was a name convention never used in the Jewish weekly day counting system, only μία (First day) is used (the weekly day descriptions revolving around the Sabbath). So the word Sunday in Greek is not relevant in reference to NEW TESTAMENT GREEK and scripture as it was never used in NT GREEK scripture.

I have more on this if your interested..

Hope this helps.

I understand what you are TRYING to say, but it is incorrect. In Greek Scriptures the counting was the same. Even the word Sabbath was Sabbato and the 6th day was actually called "the day of preparation". The word Pentecost is the Greek Jewish word for Shavuot. That phrase μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων means the 1st day after the Sabbath...it is NOT the NAME of the day. κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ IS the name.

No my friend, there is NO reference to Sunday in NT GREEK Scripture.

Of course not since Sunday is an English word. Mia ton Sabbaton is a description of the 1st day of the week...it literally means the day after or following the Sabbath. κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ is the Greek name for that day...which is our Sunday. Ask ANY Greek speaking person and they will tell you.

Thanks for your thoughts. However I think your still missing the point here. There was no naming convention for weekly days in Jewish culture in both Hebrew and NT GREEK. The weekly days were named this way because the week revolved around and pointed to the Sabbath. I am glad however that you can see where I am coming from though. I have a lot more to share on this if your interested?

κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ is not used in the NT GREEK scriptures to refer to the first day of the week. You will not find any scripture for this claim in the NEW TESTAMENT.

Of course not since Sunday is an English word. Mia ton Sabbaton is a description of the 1st day of the week...it literally means the day after or following the Sabbath. κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ is the Greek name for that day...which is our Sunday. Ask ANY Greek speaking person and they will tell you.

Indeed but you will not find κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ used in the NT Greek for naming the First day of the week in reference to any scripture in the NT because this was not the naming convention used in Jewish culture.

I will need to go for now as it is late my time. Happy to discuss this further with you latter. Nice to chat with you Yeshua HaDerekh :wave:

The Jews remember the Sabbath. It is their religion. They keep it holy.

The Catholic church also keeps Sat holy as there is a Vigil mass.

Jesus brought with Him the new covenant. Christianity was born.

Sabbath was for the Jews.

Thanks for your thoughts. However I think your still missing the point here. There was no naming convention for weekly days in Jewish culture in both Hebrew and NT GREEK. The weekly days were named this way because the week revolved around and pointed to the Sabbath. I am glad however that you can see where I am coming from though. I have a lot more to share on this if your interested?

κυριακῇ ἡμέρᾳ is not used in the NT GREEK scriptures to refer to the first day of the week. You will not find any scripture for this claim in the NEW TESTAMENT.

The Gospels were written earlier than Revelation, probably by decades. John was the last Apostle alive when he wrote it. Sunday by then was already being called The Lord's Day. It is common in early Church literature in the East
