Ndigila,

So there are confusion in the historical evidences because everyone wants to believe what their fathers, or pastors or whoever, tell them.

OK, to me Sabbath is important so as to remember creation. It was spoken by God as part of His ten holy laws. It will be observed in heaven and the new earth. God who spoke it valued it throughout the centuries, and blessings are promised even to the strangers who will honour it.

All this is documented in the Old Testament.

If I choose to keep the nine commandments, I wont break one of them without evidence that keeping it is breaking it.

Do you think God values Sunday communion? Dont you think if Sunday was highly valued and cherished by God to remember resurrection as a day then explicit directions from God or Jesus could have been told us especially during the last Supper? Jesus directed the apostles to always eat and drink His body and blood, how come a day wasn't tied to the festivity? How come Paul never mentioned a specific day in regard to this to the Corinthians when expounding its essence for worship?

Since the bible recognises the Sabbath from presin (just as "thou shalt not kill" was a valid commandment presin), and that it also recognises it postsin (just as "thou shalt not have any god before me" shall be valid postsin), so it must be equally valid all through the ages just as the other nine.

This is my humble conclusion.
 


Marriage is a wonderful Institution. Who wants to live in an Institution?
