Who made Sunday the first day of the week? Who made the calendar?
Was it the Almighty that made some months 31, some 30, and yet another either 28 or 29? Where is it recorded in the Bible that the Creator of the universe rested on Saturday?

What is the significant of 7th day and rest?
For those in a culture that counts a week by 4 days, which day is their 7th day of the week?
When was the days of the week, as we have them now, named and who named them: the Creator, Adam, or the created?

Finally, who is the Creator of the universe?

Answer these questions and stop raising stupid questions. Your question is meant for the gullible and uneducated ones.

Thanks.

Hello Nairaland Christians, have you for once wondered why you christains worship on Sundays and not the Sabbath day.

If you study your Bible well, you will realize that when GOD was done with his creations,he rested on the Seventh day and blessed it saying we should keep it holy.

Now, looking at the days of the week, the seventh day of the week is Saturday and not Sunday.Sunday is the first day of a new week.
So,why do we worship on Sundays and not the seventh day of the week?
Are we really following God's commandments at all or we are just deceiving ourselves?

Why do Muslims worship on Fridays
Because the Quran said so, Quran(62:9) Believers, when the call for Prayer is made on Friday, hasten to the remembrance of Allah and give up all trading.That is better for you, if you only knew.

Man wasn't made for the law.

The law was made for man

Hence, man can choose any day of the week to serve his God.
So man can choose not to pay tithe ?

Sincerely speaking Saturday is the seventh day but it n honouring of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ when he resurrec on Sunday the then apostles change the Sabbath day to Sunday. Purely by revelation this changes take effect
Use Bible as s guide not lies to hide the truth
Re: Why Do Christians Worship On Sundays? by Originalsly: 10:25am On Nov 28, 2021
Because Sunday was the day Pagans worshipped their sun god ... so "Christians " abandoned their Sabbath to trend. Today ... the trending of " Christians" continue .... Pagans leading Christians ... "Christians" abandoning the advice of Christ to gather as a church and choose to trend by following the Pagans.... stay at home ... do not gather as a church ... keep social distance.

But really on the Sabbath ... didn't Christ last say the Sabbath is made for man?... that a man can choose his own Sabbath? Therefore it makes no difference to God if a man keeps Saturday or Sunday holy.

As Christians, we worship God everyday of the week, Sunday is just for fellowship and christ resurrected on Sunday, if we are like christ (Christians), would it not be wise to honour his resurrection? Which by the way is the biggest and greatest and most significant move of God till date.

What better day to fellowship bros

Same reason why no pastor or even the Pope can point where the word "Bible" is mentioned in the Bible... instead they prefer to point at technicalities like "word of God" . There is nothing like going to church & worshipping on Sunday in the "word of God" . So many flaws, Humans should stop tempering with that book in the name of revision

In the New Testament, there are no hard and fast rules. But make no mistake about it: there are rules.
The moral law cannot be broken, so Sabbath must be observed.
Now for the Christian worshipping on Sundays instead of Saturday, there are many reasons why it is so and I advise you research online.
One of the reasons is because our Lord Jesus Christ resurrected on a Blessed Sunday morning. So converting worship to Sunday is in order.
Also Sabbath is any free day out of seven days that you offer unto the Lord.
In some countries, Some people go to work both on Saturdays and Sundays. But they are off on Fridays. So Friday is their own Sabbath, cos it's the time of their own rest.

Jesus said, MAN is Lord of the Sabbath. So anyday you like can be your own Sabbath.

The Lord Jesus rose on the first day of the week ,so the Christians came together on Sunday (the first day of the week) to break bread and gather where they were first addressed as Christians.

Acts 20:7 Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.

Hmm. They do so because Paul the Apostle was trying to divert the minds of people on those days from Saturday(Sabbath day, Holy day of Judaism) to Sunday(which should become the holy day of the christians instead).

Anyways, nowadays as Jehovah remain in his SPIRITUAL CAGE, Sunday is gradually becoming a normal day as many people don't go to church anymore.

It's AGE OF AQUARIUS, we are experiencing mind evolution to take us past the lies of religions into the truth of SCIENCE.

Bolded
I thought you are knowledgeable. I am surprised you don't know history behind sunday worship in Christianity.
Also, sunday cannot be normal day as long world is still using Roman calendar.
Re: Why Do Christians Worship On Sundays? by Asconds: 10:39am On Nov 28, 2021
Sunday is a special day set aside to worship God together in a church. Although other days are also recognized to worship God but sunday is spectacular. However, you can visit your facebook page to search for Christ Top Ministries page and pay your tithes with them and see how the window of blessings from Heaven shall be opened onto your life. Happy Sunday.

Time changed. People rest on Sunday. Saturdays come with more activities even more than Monday to Friday.

Sunday is a day people are less distracted for spiritual activities. And note, we worship God daily. Picking one day of week week to worship him more is not a cause for confusion. Some people chose Thursday, some Friday, some still do on Saturday.

The day of worship is not the issue, the worship gangan and how we do it is far more important.

Paul and christians in his time did not worship on Sunday..
Sunday worship was introduced into Christianity many decades after death of Apostles and development of Apostasy.
Roman empire adopted Christianity as State religion and many aspects of Christianity were Romanized.

It's stated clearly in the glorious Qur'an(suratul- jumu'ah)that when you heard the call to prayer leave your business transactions and pray,then return to your transactions after prayers, where is it stated in Bible that Christian's should go to church on Sundays and where is it stated in the Bible that Christmas falls on December 25 of every year??
