I grew up with my preacher dad and preachers wife mom always taking a "nap" on Sunday. Trust me those were noisy naps. Dad even wrote a college thesis on the Sabbath. I guess it is all ok.

Sunday Sabbath is heresy\nEaster Sunday is heresy\nHeresies (all iniquity) is an abomination to God.\n\nThose who love God with all their heart, soul, mind, might, also love His Law, the Torah - His will circumcise their heart with His will written on it.\n\nOne-hour and then back-to-worldly- pleasures won't make the mark. Begrudgingly observing the Sabbath won't cut it. If you love the holiness of the Sabbath, you've got it! :)\n\n[See "How to test a prophet...?"]

Monday, is the first day of the week.  God made the Earth in six days and rested on the seventh which is Sunday the last day of the week.  They put Sunday the first day of the week on the calendar so people don't get Saturday & Sunday mixed up.

"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

Lord's day meaning the Sabbath (Saturday), the true day of the Lord?\n\n"Eat the food you gathered yesterday. Today is a Sabbath, the Lord's day of rest;"\n\n"This is what the Lord commanded, because tomorrow is the Sabbath, the Lord's holy day of rest."\n\n"but the seventh day is a day of rest to honor the Lord your God."\n\n"So the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day"\n\n"So then, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath day." \n\n"Then Jesus said to the Pharisees, 'The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day.'"\n\nAnyway, you need a DVD ripper to convert the content to a .avi file.

:}\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.

It says to rest not work, however Jesus did talk to some people about this subject and he asked if they would let the ox die in the ditch because it was the sabbath or if they would pull it out!  I can't remember where in the bible it is but his point was if it is important to take care of something on the sabbath then it's okay to work!

No; Christians don't worship on Sunday because of Jesus' resurrection. They worship on Sunday because at the Council of Nicea it was established that Christianity & Judaism must separate. Did you know that Saint Nicholas (AKA Santa Claus) was on this Council? This is where the ancient, Jewish Synagogue most Christians know as the Early Church\nsplit from it's Jewish roots. The early church was entirely Jewish at it's conception.\nThis council made very clear, deliberate rules to separate the Jewish practices from the Christian ones. The Church did start out worshipping on Saturday.\nUnderstand that in Genesis 1; it says the evening & the morning were the first day. It doesn't say from sunrise to sunset, but from sunset to sunrise! It reverses the way Americans view a day. This mindset is what differentiates the Gregorian calendar (solar) from the Hebraic (lunar) calendar. If you look in the story of David, Jonathan & Saul; it says they were celebrating the New Moon. Jews follow a lunar calendar, & their Sabbath is Friday sundown to Saturday sundown. This is the Biblically commanded holiday known as Sabbath; a weekly day of rest offered to mankind. Even the 10 Comandments say to honor it, yet Christians simply follow tradition instead of doing what the Bible commands.\nSo, Jews also worship on the same day of SDA people. From what I understand, they also keep Biblically kosher; correct?

There is no reason it cannot be on another day. We made the calendar, and we named the days. Whatever day it should be cannot be determined unless God opens up the sky and yells out "The sabath should be on this day!" Conclusion:We don't know when it should be, so we put it on sunday.

go find a really good dictionary, and look up sabbath, if it is a good dictionary it will tell you that it is Saturday. Look up Saturday and it will tell you that it is the seventh day of the week, sunday is the first day of the week. Go look at you calender, the week begins with sunday and ends with saturday. It is one thing to go by the Bible and it is truth, but when you start going to secular things, dictionary, encylopedia, calender, and they tell you these things, well  how can people argue it, with that is just what the bible says.

IT IS A BIBLICAL PRINCIPAL. GEN. 1&2 YOU HAVE SIX DAY OF CREATION AND THE SEVENTH DAY OF REST WOULD BE A WEEK.\nMENTIONED AGAIN IN EX. 20:8-10.

The Sabbath is the Sabbath.  God never changed it, Jesus never changed it, the desciples never changed it.  The Lords Day, is also the Sabbath, unless you are looking for a way to justify going to church on monday, or teusday, aor any other day that you want to identify as the Lords.\n\nThat being said, nobody is going to Heaven nor hell based on thinking that one day is better than another.

"Eat the food you gathered yesterday. Today is a Sabbath, the Lord's day of rest;"\n\n"This is what the Lord commanded, because tomorrow is the Sabbath, the Lord's holy day of rest."\n\n"but the seventh day is a day of rest to honor the Lord your God."\n\n"So the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day"\n\n"So then, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath day." \n\n"Then Jesus said to the Pharisees, 'The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day.'"\n\nI think that pretty well settels it!

I think that is a personal choice.  If you don't want to work on Sunday, than don't. I know some people don't feel as if they have a choice, but ultimately they do.

No, it was not.  That observation comes from a lazy and superficial reading of the Scriptures.  It is a false assumption that Jesus was killed and buried on a Friday!  And trying to squeeze three days and nights out of two is man's vane attempt to rectify his error with the Bible facts.  A concise, biblical proof of Jesus' death, burrial and resurrection follows:\n\n1st -- Not all Sabbaths are on the 7th day of the week. So many people (even theologians) have assumed that the Sabbath that Jesus was buried before was the weekly (7th day) Sabbath.\n\nBut God also made 7 annual Holy Days that are called Sabbaths.  These Sabbaths can occure on other days of the week.  In John, the Sabbath in question is called a "High Day", that is, it is one of these annual Holy Days. Specifically, it is the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread (called Passover -- actually, the day after Passover) (Leviticus 23:6).\n\nThis is confirmed by the following:\n\nA. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus (John 19:39) "Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen cloths with the spices..." (John 19:40, Matt 27:59), "and laid it in his [Joseph's] own new tomb" (Matt 27:60, Mark 15:46, Luke 23:53, John 19:39-42).\n\nB. "And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on" (Luke 23:54, John 19:42).\n\nC. "And the women also, which came with Him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre and how his body was laid" (Luke 23:55, Matt 27:61, Mark 15:47).\n\nD. "AND WHEN THE SABBATH WAS PAST, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Solome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him" (Mark 16:1).\n\nE. Then "they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; AND RESTED ON THE SABBATH DAY according to the commandment" (Luke 23:56).\n\nNote: The buying and preparing of the spices and oils by the women occurred BETWEEN TWO SABBATHS. Therefore, these two Sabbaths could not have been concurrent, as is popularly believed. And, as John 19:31 explains, the first Sabbath, the one immediately after Jesus' death, was a High Day, that is, an annual Holy Day, the First Day of Unleavened Bread, not the weekly Sabbath.\n\n"But late in the week, at the dawning into the first day of the week {that is, just after sunset on Saturday}, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.  And the angel answered and said to the women, Do not fear, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.  He is not here, for He has risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."  (Matthew 28:1, MKJV, also Mark 16:1-6, Luke 24:1-6)\n\nSo, Jesus was already risen before the first day of the week ever began.\n\nAs for the counting of the three FULL days and three FULL nights, we have:\n\nNight 1: Wednesday/Thursday night {Note: This was a Holy Day/Sabbath that year}\nDay 1: Thursday\n\nNight 2: Thursday/Friday night\nDay 2: Friday {Women bought and prepared spices & oils on this day}\n\nNight 3: Friday/Saturday {Beginning of normal, weekly Sabbath}\nDay 3: Saturday\n\nJesus rose at about the time of day he was buried, just before sunset on the weekly Sabbath!  Not on Sunday; and nowhere near dawn.

I think it depends on your religious background.  Christians say Monday because Sunday is the Sabbath, and in the bible, it says that God created the world in 6 days and on the 7th He rested.  That makes Sunday our Sabbath, or 7th day, so Monday is the first day of the new week.  However, many faiths recognize Saturday as the Sabbath, which makes Sunday the start of the new week.  A non-religious view would be that Monday is the start of the working week for most of us, so that makes it Day 1.
