This might be a thread killer...

Since today is the first day of the rest of our lives, the first day of the week is...today.

And to prove it...

One week form today will be the end of a one week span of time, therefore today is indeed the first day of the week.

Further evidence is found in 1 COR

“One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind....
...You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat...
...therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way....
...Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil. for the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, 18because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men....
...Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification....
...So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself by what he approves. but the man who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin....”

And Paul begins his letter with “Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.” Grace always comes before peace. It is grace that bring peace.

Legalism, on the other hand brings division and strife, pride and sin.

...just my thoughts.

Grace to you!

How is that a thread killer, oh, woolly one?

You’re always welcome around my threads. We like sheep. It says so in the bible:

“We like sheep” — Isaiah 53:6
