Why do false teachers failed to at least acknowlege that Sunday Worship is clearly a man made institution?

God ordained Sabbath for all mankind(Exodus 20:8-11), not just for the Jewish nation. That is like saying the Ten Commandments only apply to the Jews. Everybody else is free to commit adultery. Most would strongly disagree. Therefore Christians are wrong to cherry pick the Law of God. Some apply and some don't. All God's Commandments are true and will stand forever in eternity.Why do false teachers failed to at least acknowlege that Sunday Worship is clearly a man made institution?
I fear that you are preaching to the choir....





they will find every verse possible and misapply it/ forget the context, the time frame, the group the message was for and the message that was trying to be taught,to give justification as to why they do not have to follow God's law but can still accept his salvation and grace...





you would think they would demand that it be written in stone for proof...





Oh! wait! it is.....Why do false teachers failed to at least acknowlege that Sunday Worship is clearly a man made institution?
Why don't Sola scripturists admit that the Bible itself came from a man made institution? The church has been given the authority by Christ to bind and loose (Matthew 18 16-18) and has promised to send the spirit to guide it in the truth. It is because of the binding authority, and promised inerrant guidance, that the Scriptures can be said to be inerrant.


It is by the same authority that determined and closed the canon, a ';Christ made institution'; made up of men, that Sunday worship has gained it's legitimacy.
The Old Testament was written by Jews, for Jews.





The New Testament was written by Christians, for Christians.





The Quran was written by Muhammad, for Muslims.





The same is true for all other religions. The people who practice religion then say that their writings are for all people. Are any of them true? I think not.
Sabbath was created for man, not man for sabbath. It does not matter what day it is on. God wanted the sabbath as a time to take a break, and use that break to pray and have a relationship with him. To rest our bodies and our souls. It does not matter if you take your sabbath on sunday, saturday, or tuesday. Further more how do we really know which day is the Sabbath? MAN named the months and days of the week after false gods.
We are told to labor for 6 days and rest on the 7th. I really don't remember God saying ';Saturday is the Sabbath';. So, honestly you could even say that those that use Saturday as the Sabbath are doing so based on traditions of man.


I think the thing we need to remember is to take time to worship and thank God, regardless of what day of the week it is. 'Cause I personally don't think He really cares. As long as we take a day of rest as commanded in Exodus, we're fine.
I looked at Exodus 20:8-11 and cannot find there anything said about all mankind being told to keep the Sabbath.





I agree that Sunday worship is a man-made institution, but so what? Aren't Christians free to worship whenever they wish?





You say all God's commandments are true and stand forever. So I can sell my daughter into slavery still, and it's ok, seeing as this is a commandment of God. My husband can divorce me for any reason, seeing as that too is in the law and a commandment of God.





Or, are you now also going to ';cherry pick'; the law?

I have been there done that Sabbath thing, did it for 29 years. It is long and hard to explain, but what i can tell you is that Jesus (the Word that became flesh, the Word of the Lord that gave the law to Moses) is bigger than the law He gave. He did not do away with the Sabbath (as you say) and He did not institute Sunday worship (as you say.) But you will bear more fruit in your spiritual life if you allow the focus on the Sabbath to pass and seek 1st the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
That's right. the Apostles rightly believed it was more appropriate to celebrate worship on the day of Christ's glorious Resurrection than on the day He lay dead in the tomb. Which is why Acts tells us they met for worship ';on the first day of the week';.
Reigion/christianity/islam/ect are all lies and will die when people become more educated. The internet will kill religion in time.
Stop trying to put a Yoke of the Law on people.





Just because one attends a worship meeting with other believers, doesn't mean they are necessarily born again.





You can go to services each Saturday but are you born again???
Religion is a con. Never forget that.
Your question and the rant that follows confuse me. What are you asking?
The Bible CLEARLY says we are free to observe or not observe special days. Jesus is my Sabbath - I rest in Him.
