What day to you?

How is that so many people claim to believe in the same thing yet at the same time they don't seem to believe the same at all? I am talking biblically of course. We as 'christians' etc claim to believe in the bible. There is only ONE Bible so why are there so many different beliefs when it comes to ONE book. Shouldn't we follow the bible as the words say or should we believe in the tradition passed down for years?

Why do we call the Sunday the Lord's day? Isn't that the Sabbath? If you go to Sunday church that is what they let on to believe. We shouldn't get the 2 mixed up. The 'Lord's Day' and the Sabbath (Shabbat in Hebrew) are 2 different things. Which one is Holy and commanded by God and the other is a man made tradition that has no relevance or mention of in the bible. SO I guess brings me to my point. Do we want to follow God or do we want to follow man?

What is the Sabbat? When did God declare the Sabbath? Why did he declare it and whom did he declare it to?

Sabbath means to cease, to stop, to desist. In the 2nd chapter of Genesis God blessed and made one day Holy. The Seventh day. Back in Jesus's day there wasn't names for any of the days of the week except Shabbat (Sabbath), the rest were numbered. 1st, 2nd, etc. Sabbath meaning cease because creation was finished. God set that day apart from the rest.

God declared it Holy at the beginning of creation.But when he declared it Holy who did he declare it to? Many people think that the Sabbath was directed toward Israel but that is simply untrue. There wasn't an Israel at that time, he declare it to all believers in God. v3 God blessed the 7th day and SEPARATED IT AS HOLY. That was a Saturday or more specifically from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday.

So if God declared this to be the Sabbath why do so many people believe Sunday is the true Sabbath or what most churches refer to as 'The Lord's Day'. It goes back to the 2nd century AD when gentiles started to abandon anything that seemed to be set apart for the Jewish people. and in the 4th century , the church officially abolished the Shabbat.

According to the ecumenical councils called together by Constantine in the middle of the 4th century they declared the sabbath to be a Jewish holy day in which the church should have no part.

So wait the Jewish people followed what God said at the beginning of time about the sabbath, what the bible declares. They decided it would be better to end that and start a new practice. That of which would be called the Lord's day and instead of it being on the 7th day AS GOD COMMANDED, they would change it to the first day. The day of the week that Jesus arose.

Check out the actual documents from the several meeting of the COUNCIL OF LAODICEA CANON #29 more specifically. Google it for more info. This is what it states.
Christians must not judaize by resting on the Sabbath, but must work on that day, rather honouring the Lord's Day; and, if they can, resting then as Christians. But if any shall be found to be judaizers, let them be anathema from Christ.

What was the 1st day anyway back then? It was already the standard day of meeting together to worship the most widely accepted, and politically correct, god of the Roman Empire, the Sun God. Hence, the name for Sunday. Thanks to the emperor of the time Constantine.

The Sabbath was given to us by God, later, said in the Bible to set us apart from NON-BELIEVERS. More to come later.

But I am asking you this. DO you follow God or Man? What day do you set apart as Holy and why do you use that day?? Being a believer is not easy. Being a believer also DOES NOT FOLLOW THE WAYS OF THE WORLD. Who do you follow and why? I would love to know! :)
Ezekiel 20:12
King James Bible
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
