The Thing Most Sabbath Keepers Do not Talk About.

[JulieB67]

that there be no gatherings when I come.

He stated that they would do it on the "first day" so that there would be no gathers when he came. Meaning they would have already collected by the time he gets there. We are talking about collections being done on the first day.

I think we have a warning about Paul's writings, when we make them try to say the opposite of what Jesus who is God taught and lived

Never stated Paul taught against Christ's own teachings. In fact he is always a another witness to what Christ taught.

I believe it means the collection/gatherings would be ready when he comes on the first day to collect it. It was a home collection, not a church one

1 Corinthians 16:2

“Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him…”

In Greek, the phrase is:

par’ heautō tithetō thesaurizōn — literally,
“let each one put aside by himself, storing up.”

That little phrase “by himself” (παρ᾽ ἑαυτῷ, par’ heautō) is crucial — it indicates a personal setting aside, rather than depositing money in a common collection box at a public gathering

Never stated Paul taught against Christ's own teachings. In fact he is always a another witness to what Christ taught.

Yes, and Christ did not come to destroy His own law or prophets Mat5:17 , and fulfilled His promise of making His laws greater Isa 42:21 not lessor as we see Him doing just that Mat5:19-30

Why not a jot or tittle can pass from the law until all is fulfilled and that is when Jesus comes in the clouds and He creates a New Heaven and New Earth and no more sin or sinners ever again, just living in peace and harmony with God forevermore.. Therefore His Law is exactly how He gave it. Just written on a better surface with better promises of how we can keep them through Him if we cooperate.

I pray sister we will both be ready on that Great Day..
