Thanks. I saw this and this cannot be reasonably classified as work either.

You are on your own . Even the Pharisees called it "work".

1At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. 2When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.

What do you want to think of them? My last two jobs didn't give any chance to attend Sunday service. With the first one being a customer service job with two off days but not fixed while the second job I had just one off day which was Wednesdays. The latter, I was earning not less than 600k and it's a company job. When you see money wey meet your need, you go surely work

If it is essential service, nothing is wrong with it, if you are a shop owner or private business at least after service, you can open your shop nothing wrong with it as well

What is Sunday?

Uchesis:

Even if the person has God, it doesn't mean God will throw money down from heaven for him because he didn't work on a sunday. Allow people that want to work on sunday to work.

That is where the difference lies. A person who has found God shall be blessed in his work for he shall work, in the days of work and God shall show him and shock him and surprise with shocking bountiful harvests.

I just wanted to ask this short quick question.
What do you think of Christians who goes to work or open their shops on Sunday?

My personal opinions are;
Except you’re a 7th Day Adventist Christian, a university student (probably needing to attend a tutorial) and a government worker e.g Health workers and Security outfits.
I believe God made Sunday for rest and he commanded it.

What is your own opinion?
And if I’m wrong, tell me why with scriptural references. Thanks in advance

U are not wrong but there are some jobs that demand u to be at work on Sunday especially shift work. ME like ds dey work till tomorrow morning by d grace of d Almighty God.

phemmyfour:
You are on your own . Even the Pharisees called it "work".

Everyone knows not to go to the Pharisees for judgments and we all see that they bent The Law so that they could say that Christ has done a wrong.

But by the standards of good judgment, this does not qualify as work, which is why even you did not judge it work but merely repeated that those who had a murderous interest of finding a reason to kill Christ called it so.

Proving that no just and reasonable person wiil ever call it work.

BirtherOfKings:
Look for another job quickly by asking for the help of the Holy Spirit, still keep working but attend church online every Sunday..if u are catholic..u can attend first mass or evening mass

Remember wen I use to work for jumia customer service, started serious prayer to stop Sunday work and got another work after a few months.

You used to work for Jumia and not for any of the Upstream or Downstream sectors or company with huge pay package.

That's by the way, I don't see any wrong working on Sundays when called. Sunday works are usually urgent or emergency.

Besides, I don't see why people attach too much importance to Sundays alone and the rest of the days of the week can be messed with.

Who is it always about Sunday services and mid-week services and other church programs within the week.

Let's serve God and not follow RELIGION

I have already answered it here. You are free to work on Sunday.

And I add that you can work and rest on any day, however, YOU MUST NOT WORK ON THE SABBATH DAYS.

And people are not paying attention that there are many sabbaths to be obeyed, not just the Sabbath of the 7th day.

But as usual, people never listen to God not to talk of doing as they please, then they wonder why God never hears them. But no problem, na dem go carry dia problem for head.

Poverty motivated post, just imagine what religion has done to Nigerians, we are discussing days to work as a Christian, your pastor is already working on that same Sunday that’s why you are in church, what’s your pastor job? Lazy people hiding behind religion to justify their poverty mindset

WHICH DAY IN PARTICULAR IS THE SABBATH DAY? AND I NEED PROOF OF YOUR ANSWER PLS

The main thing is do what is right always, whether on a Sunday or any other day. If your work demands that you go on Sundays, by all means go. No one should judge you of the Sabbath days - Colossians 2:16.
Do to others as you would want them do to you.
Love God above all things and love your neighbour as yourself.
Jesus Christ is the Lord of the Sabbath!

Maynman:

Your Sun-Day is from Roman Catholic.

Different doctrine everywhere.....

If transport workers don't go to work on Sundays, you and your family and friends will trek to and fro from ur church or mosque or shrine.

I really don't have personal opinions or beliefs. However, I can provide you with information on this topic.

For Christians, Sunday is considered a holy day and is traditionally observed as a day of rest and worship. Many Christians choose not to work on Sundays in order to attend religious services and spend time with their families. However, it is important to note that not all Christians adhere to this practice, as work schedules and cultural norms vary across different regions and individuals. Ultimately, the decision to work on Sundays is a personal choice influenced by one's faith, work requirements, and personal circumstances.

There's nothing wrong in missing out on church activities on Sundays because of your work. It's only wrong when you don't meet up on other days' church activities when you have the chance to.

Uchesis:

There are many sabbaths. The most popular one is the Sabbath of the 7th day what is now called Saturday which everyone knows.

But there are other Sabbaths like July is a Sabbath month and it had about 3 or 4 sabbaths of which one of them fell on a Monday. Leviticus 23:23-36

Did Jesus replied the Pharisees that they bent the law or wrongly classified his disciples action? Please restrict yourself to the scriptures. Even Jesus didn't tell them that they were wrong. When you start using your head and logic to explain scriptures, you are bound to fall into more error.

You are entitled to your own opinion
I want to be transformed and d best place to work on that is by being in church, besides most of the rich people I know don't work on Sunday instead they engage in light reading or even sport activities so watch your utterances Abt serving religion

You would have gotten an answer from my side if you asked about Saturday which is the Sabbath.

where in the bible did you see that God made sunday as a day of rest?

Heaven will be very scanty.

Due to current situation in Nigeria, one needs to work all round the clock because the high cost of living is too much...
Worship and rest day is Sunday but for I always go to church first before engaging in any work. Bro bills is too much for me these days

Most people that work on Sundays are not always okay financially... especially those business owners,you won't even see that extra money you are looking,you get loope holes in your life.

What do you think about Jesus Christ that did miracle work on Sabbath?
Christ indeed answered the question!
You hypocrites...

phemmyfour:
Did Jesus replied the Pharisees that they bent the law or wrongly classified his disciples action? ...

Did He need to? Are there not many ways to address an issue?

The most important thing is that we all know when a judgment is Wrong and the Pharisees judgment here was very wrong and untrue and unjust for it is lawful to eat on the Sabbath day and in this case to eat they required plucking exactly as spooning rice to eat.

And i know that you would scream that it is unjust for anyone to say that it is work and breach of the Sabbath if they saw you eating rice with your spoon on the Sabbath day.

Read the passage with an open mind . The Pharisees didn't accuse the disciples of eating on the Sabbath day

Porksupplyib:


Smiles... Maybe you need to read what you wrote again.

"Christianity is not against going to work on Sundays, so it's not a sin.
But anything that will deprive you time to effectively serve God is a sin."

So what was that above statement implying?

It means & implies you can still effectively serve God other days of the week.

Is a Christian working for herbalist for money justified?

I'm not talking about rich people here but people who are called out for work or their job demand them to be at their offices on Sundays. I also have and worked with top Bosses who have been called for work on Sundays. This doesn't make them evil, neither is it a criteria for being saved. I've met Pastors and church Elders in locations on Sundays and it doesn't change anything.

Large majority of Christians are a very RELIGIOUS people and this doesn't lead to the type of transformation you mentioned.

A typical RELIGIOUS person is blind to the real truth about God. So know the difference between serving God and following RELIGION.

Again, we should also focus on Mid-week services and other church programs too and not just Sundays only.

WICKED PEOPLE STILL FULL CHURCH and I'm not saying I'm a saint!!!

phemmyfour:

Their wrong is in calling plucking to eat, "work" forgetting therefore that if that judgment is applied, then they are too are guilty for surely, they must use their hands to pluck food from the plate to eat, which according to them is work.

So, they should first arrest and punish themselves before they can arrest and punish anyone else.

So, again, their act was vain and a nullity.
