Because we aren’t practicing the Law of Moses. We aren’t celebrating the Sabbath, just like we aren’t observing the feasts and rituals of the Levitical writings.
We observe Sunday because it was the day Christ rose from the dead, a greater work than all of His achievements in the six days of Creation combined, as it was a restorative work granting us everlasting life.
These may all be important and valid reasons to you, but are nowhere commanded by God. Sunday sabbath is the invention of the roman catholic church, a fact of which they are absolutely clear and very proud.
It’s a false argument. There are no days holier than any other, now.
Even the Resurrection Sunday as an observance is merely an emotional and historical celebration, as we are to treat all days as holy, and every moment we are to pursue His righteousness. We attend church on Sunday as a human point of reflection on the day Christ was risen.
Paul made it crystal clear in Galatians that the practice of setting aside days, months and seasons, as well as circumcision and other practices of the law, were enslavement to customs rather than pursuits of holiness. And I’ll go one further and say that to practice such observances today, is to take part in what is now the synagogue of Satan.
So, unless you’re aligning yourself with those blood drinking suckers of baby dicks, there is no “Sabbath” any longer.
Which proves that Jesus rested in the grave on the Sabbath day. He lived and died sinless. Why would you rest on the day he did such a great work? God made the sabbath for man, not the man for sabbath. It doesn’t say God made the sabbath for Jews. It was sanctified long before Jews existed.
We are identified in His death, but celebrate His life. He was also laid to rest on Passover. Still celebrating that, rabbi?
And there was no law governing the Sabbath before Moses. So, get out of here with that nonsense.
The feasts were originally tied directly to sacrifices, which Jesus put an end to; so keeping them in that manner is unnecessary. I do remember the feast days; just without the sacrifices of the first Israel, and however modified by the Ashkenazis.
The Passover, feast of unleavened bread, and feast of first fruits honor His sacrifice, death, and resurrection; all 3 days in a row. linked a good little passage, a few weeks ago, with solid clues suggesting that Jesus was possibly born on the feast of trumpets, which would be better appreciated than some solar event on Dec. 25; or do you keep that pagan tradition?
“And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.” Genesis 2:2-3 KJV
Sanctify: To set apart for sacred use; consecrate. To make holy; purify. To give religious sanction to, as with an oath or vow.
