Which day of the week is the correct day of worship according to the bible?
468658
Originally saturday was the sabbath and the holy day.  After the resurrection of Christ early Christians changed the holy day to sunday to show respect for Christs resurrection.  Jews not accepting Christ continued to worship on saturday and still do now.  In the 19th century some Christian groups, including the Seventh-day adventists led by Ellen White, went back to the old day of Saturday.  As far as which is correct and what the only one God thinks you have to ask which church you adhere too.  In the Old Testament Saturday was the day but the New testament does not addressthis issue after Christ and it is more an issue of tradition than literal biblical interpretation as far as I know.

Sunday.\n\n"In Western Christianity, Easter always falls on a Sunday from March 22 to April 25 inclusive. The following day, Easter Monday, is a legal holiday in many countries with predominantly Christian traditions. In Eastern Christianity, Easter always falls between April 4 and May 8 based on the Gregorian date."

Nowhere in the Bible. All praise and worship is due to God and God alone, and the only way to him is through his Son, the Christ. In fact, when Mary and his siblings went to meet Christ, and his disciples told him that his mother and brothers were there, Christ said, "Who are my mother and My brothers, but those that do the will of God and keep his commandments." Note that the Decalogue he refers to, points to Saturday as the real Sabbath, not the Sunday that was substituted by the Catholic Church.\nHowever, while dying on the Cross at Calvary, Christ was still the Son of God, and Man, so his concern for Mary's well-being was spiritual and social. (One of the Commandments talks about honoring one's parents.)

:}\nOne day of fasting from meat,   Friday to recall good Friday on a weekly basis in the same way that a change of the worship day from the sabbath to Sunday recalls the Resurrection on a weekly basis.

The week based on the 6 days it took God to make the universe and rested on the seventh day. Thats the week but the week is composed of the 24 hour periods where we spin fully. The year where we revolve around the sun in 365 days.\n\nI hope that answers your question

Yes, you are absolutely right, the final seal between us (true christian advents) and God will be the keeping of the true sabbath (saturday) according to the fourth commandment.

Actually Friday is our holy day. and the story refers to the Children of Israel, who when they were given the torah, they were told not to work on the sabbath. \n\nhowever, that was specific to the children of Israel, and so we as Muslims have friday as our holy day.\n\nwallahu alem (and Allah knows best)

Churches have always argued concerning the true Sabbath, and each has a different reason for worshipping Saturday or Sunday. Catholics will readily admit that they have the authority to change the Sabbath since the pope is the "vicar of Christ" or in the place of Christ. Seventh Day Adventist have a pretty good argument for still keeping the Saturday Sabbath...they claim no biblical passage authorizes a change in the 10 commandments, and unlike other laws that were written on paper to show that they won't last forever, the 10 commandments (including the Sabbath) were the only laws written on stones to signify it's everlasting place. Now you have Harold Camping from Family Radio, he has a pretty good argument for Sunday worship, the best I've seen so far, and YES, he uses the bible to support his view very well. I will post two links. one of Harold camping just scroll down on the left and click on SUNDAY THE SABBATH. The other link is of Samuele Bacchiocchi's book FROM SUNDAY TO SABBATH. This way you get to see both sides of the coin.

Judaism and Seventh-day Adventists. And yes, Seventh-day Adventists restrain from work on Sabbath, using that day for studying the word of God, getting closer to Him, their families and friends. I think Baptists of the Seventh Day also observe the Sabbath – I apologize if this is not the right name of your denomination. Also, I hope there are many, many people who do not fall into denominations and do not go to church, but have realized the truth about this matter by reading their bibles. Blessed they all be and all those who continue to search. \nThere is not a single verse in the bible which can confirm that Sunday substituted Sabbath. Romans, who were pagans and worshiped many gods, considered 6th day as the most important day, as it was the day of Sun (Lucifer uses this name to hide himself – observe: Lux in the Latin means the light – in this case false). When Constantine accepted Christianity, he compromised a lot, not having accepted all the truth from Bible and not being true Christian at all. At first, people observed both Sunday and Sabbath (that’s the origin of the weekend), without understanding the meaning of Sabbath and breaking God’s law, because, you will remember, God said that we shall WORK on six days and observe the seventh. Later, Sunday seemed to be more important, cause, to Romans god of Sun was more important that than the true God, Jesus Christ. When the Christianity started to spread to other countries, Sunday had been already established as the day of worshipping and the truth about Sabbath was less and less visible. But it never died. It was burning in the hearts of men who wanted to be loyal to God 100%. \nThanks for asking this question and read bible for more info.\nP.S. \nAs I was typing this answer, my pc restarted all of sudden without any (visible) cause. I am sorry, but the truth will be revealed.\nanother P.S. \nI will copy/paste something from Plato's answer:\n"It is also interesting to note that even today, in many historically predominant Catholic countries throughout Europe, all calendars begin with Monday and end with Sunday in order to make Sunday both the Christian day of worship and the seventh Day of the week".

"Why do ppl worship on sunday not saturday?"\n\nThere are 12 reasons why people worship on Sunday but NONE are Biblical. Below I will describe them It may be a little long.\n\n\n1) "Sunday is the New Sabbath." or "Because Jesus rose on Sunday"\nThere is NO scripture that calls Sunday the New Sabbath. The only Sabbath Day is Saturday Exodus 20:8\n\nJesus did NOT give us a new day of worship for the Resurection HE gave us baptism Romans 6:1-4, Colosians 2:12, Galatians 3:27,1 Peter 3:21. Please provide the verse that says to worship on Sunday due to the resurection.\n\n2)"The Sabbath was made for the Jews, it is only part of their law"\nThe Sabbath was made more than 2000 yrs before the first Jew existed, it was part of creation Genesis 2:1-3\n\n3)"We don't worship on the Sabbath we worship on the "Lord's Day"... Sunday"\nThe ONLY day called the Lord's day in the Bible is the Sabbath Day(Saturday) Exodus 20:8, Isa 58:13,14. Please produce the verse that calls Sunday the Lord's Day.\n\n4)"The early church changed it."\nThere is no evidence that the early church started worshiping on Sunday.\nPeople usually then quote Acts 20:7 because it says they "broke bread" on the first day... meaning communion. But if they read Acts chapter 2 it says they broke bread everyday, breaking bread means eating. I can produce 7 verses where Jesus kept the Sabbath, 6 obvious verses where the early church (Apostles, Jews AND the GENTILES) met on Sabbath to worship compared to only one ambiguous text for Sunday. The weight of the evidence is for Sabbath(Saturday) worship. \n\n5)"Jesus did away with they law on the cross."\nMany things are wrong wtih this \nA)There are 2 laws, Moral and Ceremonial. The Sabbath is part of the Moral law not Ceremonial.\nB)Jesus says in Matthew 5 that he did not come to destroy the law. \nC)They keep the others the ONLY commandment ignored and discarded starts with "REMEMBER", maybe God knew people would forget it. \nD)The ONLY laws done away with were the levitical(ceremonial laws). Col 2:14. The Sabbath day is not part of the ceremonial law... it is part of the moral law.\nE)"Sin is the transgression of the law" - 1 John 3:4\n"Where there is no law there is no sin" Romans 4:15\nIf there is no sin then Jesus didn't die for you, because you did not sin.\nF) since the law is gone can we now kill and steal and commit adultery, and worship other gods, can we disrespect our parents, or worship idols? No? then why are you trying to do away with the only one that starts off with "REMEMBER". \nG) Paul in Romans says we are to uphold the Law\n\n6)"It doesn't matter" or "We can't tell which day is the Sabbath\nA)The commandment doesn't say pick a 7th day it says THE 7th Day is the Sabbath. The Jews in Edodus 16 said it doesnt "matter which day" and God told them it does matter, and we know which day is the Sabbath the Jews have kept it for thousands of years.\nB) Luke 22-23 says Jesus rose the day after the Sabbath so if you can't tell which day is the Sabbath then you can't tell which day is Sunday\n\nThe first person to say "It doesn't matter how we worship God" is Cain. Cain said "it doesn't matter how we worship God as long as we give something." Was he right?\n\n7)"We are under the New covenant"\nHebrews 8:7-12 says\nFor if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been sought for another. But God found fault with the PEOPLE and said "The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. It will not be like the covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to lead them out of Egypt, because THEY DID NOT REMAIN FAITHFUL TO MY COVENANT, and I turned away from them, decla

Yes\n\nThere seems to be alot of confusion about this among Christians. I hope that I can help clear some of it up.\n\nMany people say "it is the Jewish Sabbath" or "the Sabbath of the Jews" or any other variation of this. Show me where it says that in the Bible. The Bible clearly says the the 7th day (Saturday) is the "Sabbath of the Lord" Exodus 20:10\n\n"Jesus said the Sabbath was made for MAN." he did not say "The Sabbath was made for the JEWS."\n\nIt was given to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden if they are Jews we are all Jews. Genesis 2:1-3\n\n\nThere is no seperate day of worship for Christians and Jews. NO verse in the Bible supports the idea that the Old Covenant day of worship was Sabbath, but the New Covenant day is Sunday. There is only one day of worship sanctioned by God and that is the Sabbath(Satuday). If I am wrong provide the verse where God says to forget the one commandment that starts with the word "REMEMBER".\n\nIf God did away with the laws are we now free to murder people and commit adultery and steal and worship other gods? Then why are we now "free" to ignore the 4th commandment\n\nAnd it does matter which day God did not say pick a day He said "THE" 7th day is "THE" Sabbath. The jews did not have names for their days they had numbers  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, Sabbath. The jews knew which day he meant because it was the only day with a name. Celebrating Sabbath on another day is like celebrating independence day on November 15.\n\nThe First person to say it does not matter how we worship God as long as we worshipwas Cain. Cain said "God is not specific The sacrifice is just a concept you can offer fruit if you want."\n\nWe all now know Cain was wrong. When God says He wants a living sacrifice, He means a living sacrifice, and When God says "The Seventh day is the Sabbath" He means the 7th day. It is not up for debate.\n\nThere is no verse in the Bible that says that the new day of worship was changed to Sunday.\n\n\nObedience is not legalism\n\nDoes God expect people to do what He says?\n\nWhy is sin in the world? \nBecause 2 people did not do what God said. They did not obey.\n\n"Why do you call me Lord, Lord and DO NOT the things that I say" Luke 6:46\n"He that saith, 'I know him' and keepeth NOT His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." I John 2:4\n\n\n\nWe need to start following what God says in the Bible. and it is clear from the word that the 7th(Saturday) is the Sabbath OF THE LORD and God expects us to keep it Holy.

Early christians considered themselves Jews and thus most certainly worshiped on Saturday.  It wasn't until Paul came along that they started to re-think the law of Moses.   Early christian leaders prayed in the Jewish temples (see Acts), but of course, they were not so welcome.   Being thrown out of temples and the influence of Paul was probably the major reason they began to think of themselves as a different religion.\n\nSo while the change to Sunday happened very early in the church (probably in the first generation) it was not immediately after the death of Christ.

Ignor what the Bible says and do what the church teaches.  I.E., go to church on Sunday and ignor the 7th day.  Iguess it is not too different from most forms of Christianity in that aspect.

LC is correct. The Bible does NOT say which day of the week is the day of rest, just that G-d rested on the seventh day.\n\nTraditionally, Jewish people have their 7th day on Saturday, Christians on Sunday. \n\nSince nowhere in the Bible does it clearly state what day of the week it was, as long as you celebrate and set aside one of the seven days of the week as a day of rest, I don't think G-d really has much of an opinion on which day you pick.\n\nI can't believe some people get so hot under the collar about stuff like this. Is their faith in G-d so shaky that it cannot stand the challenge that others are more comfortable relating with G-d in a different way?

Hi creeklops,\n\nThe word Wednesday is not found in the Bible, days were called acording to the creation order except for Saturday (Sabbath).\n\nSo Sunday being the first day of the week, therefore making Wednesday the 4th day of the week.\n\nCaholics refer to a certain Wednesday of the week during passover "ash Wednesday", which is not found in the Bible either.\n\nHope this helps.

It didn't change. The Sabbath is still from the evening on Friday to the evening on Saturday. Christians chose to observe the Sabbath on the first day of the week in conjunction with the day of the Resurrection I hear, but I've never seen that in scripture. What I see in scripture is that when Christ was crucified, the Mosiac Law was crucified with Him. As He is seated at the right hand of the Father, making intercession, we can come before the Throne of Grace anytime we need to. We don't need to go to the synagogue on any certain day, but I think it is important to remember what the Sabbath means: the day of Rest after six of work. And worship should be somthing we do often, not just on Sunday.\n\nBy the way, I am a non-Jewish Christian. I attend church usually on Sunday.
