This is really getting tiring. Everyone with any sense about them realizes that there has been a change of the law from the old covenant to the new covenant. Unless you insist on sacrificing animals and taking you medical conditions to a Levite and following all the old covenant ceremonial laws without any changes, then suggesting that those of use who see a change of the sabbath from the last day of the week to the first are "worshipping a new god" is just plain silly.

Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

The fact of the matter is that the seventh day under the old covenant was a sabbath day. But Jesus Christ, being the Lord the Sabbath, had the prerogative to change the day of the sabbath from the last day to the first day.

Well, yes, and no. Jesus, being the author of the Law, could very well have changed it. However, HE NEVER DID! In fact, as I have already shown you, had he or any of the apostles said any of the nonesense that you are, they would have been stoned as heretics using the standards I showed you in Deuteronomy. The Pharisees were trying to get Jesus to speak against the Law so they could kill Him. He didn't do it. Get over it.

The Bible does not say that Jesus was resurrected on the First Day of the week. The Bible says that the tomb was discovered early on the first day of the week.

The only Christians who can honestly worship on the first day are the Catholics who believe that their Church has the power to change times and law.

So, tell us all plainly, do you sacrifice animals in your worship before the Lord, or do you encourage Jewish believer to sacrifice animals before the Lord?

Do you bring your grain offering to the local priest (Lev. 2:1)?

Do you bring your tresspass offering to the local priest (Lev. 5:6)?

Do you avoid temple worship when you have a "discharge" (Lev. 15:2)?

Do you get your tonsorial fashions approved by a priest or rabbi?

Do you have your sons circumcised by a rabbi?

Do your women bring a purification offering to the priest after bearing a child (Lev. 12:6)?

Do you bring your skin ailments to the priest for adjudication (Lev. 13:4)?

Do you bring cases of adultery to a preist to be tried by "bitter water" (Num. 5:19)?

Now, wht were you saying about "breaking the commandments"?

Oh, so it's OK to be selective? Double standard. Hypocricy come to mind.

Well, yes, and no. Jesus, being the author of the Law, could very well have changed it. However, HE NEVER DID!

That's your theory.

The NT evidence seems clear to most Christians that He did.
