Dear Preacher Ben...How do we support worshipping on Sundays? When did it change from the Sabbath to Sunday? I have read and have been taught that the disciples started to meet on the first day of the week after the death and resurrection of our Lord, but why?
We live under the new convenant I know, but dosen't it say that nothing was to be added or taken away after the convenant was made by the blood of Jesus? We didn't start meeting on Sundays until after the convenant was made, so itsn't that adding to? Can you please explain...anyone can jump in on this, I am open to all explainations...just looking for answers...thanks...say hi to Darlene...Love Debbie

Hello sweet Debbie! I hope all is well and the peace of God is upon your sweet family.

You are dear to my heart and I think of you often and pray for you dear friend. Good to hear from you. I do not get on much too busy. Remember me in your prayers.

I love you! your sister and friend,

~ Darlene ~ Hebrews 11:6 Acts 6:4

Do you think somehow you can come to the camp meeting? I sure hope so.

But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

Debbie,
I answered a similar post on this very topic before, but I know it is a discussion we all get into if we meet enough people. The Sabbath keeper people like any varient teaching, make a good case IF they ignore and keep away for a few key scriptures. I found a site with a very good explanation and rather that try to type it all in here is a link. The brother who wrote it is a teacher at the Dallas Theological Seminary, and though I wouldn't send anyone there, you can be assured it very central to scripture and from an evangelical perspictive.

Lord bless you,
Bro. Ben

P.S. My response to this issue is in the Theology 101 area, discussion #5

Learn to know Christ and him crucified. Learn to sing to him, and say, "Lord Jesus, you are my righteousness, I am your sin. You have taken upon yourself what is mine and given me what is yours. You have become what you were not so that I might become what I was not." --Martin Luther
