A note about keeping the Sabbath or worshipping on Saturday
is in order here. Christ is our
Sabbath. The Church was not born on a Saturday but on Sunday.
Although Sunday is the first day of the week, with regards to the birth
of the Church, the day should not be looked upon as the first day, but as the eighth day, the number representing New Beginnings.
The Church was a brand new,
distinct creation of God. It was
separated from Judaism in all aspects of time and place and for that reason God
ordained a new day for its worshippers.
The handwriting of ordinances was blotted out, being nailed to the cross of Christ. Paul’s words regarding the keeping of days lets us know that he that keeps a day, keeps it "as unto the Lord," and he who doesn’t keep a day, does so as unto the Lord. Rather than strive about the keeping of days, let us just celebrate on the day inaugurated at Pentecost.
