Think what you like about ‘hell’; I have better things to think about. Like the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. That for me explains FULLY what ‘hell’ should mean: that ‘hell’ is what Jesus Christ through resurrection from the dead, vanquished.

Yes, I do think about the way people think of "hell". And that is only a very small part of what I spend my time on in my studies. And YES, I especially constantly think and study about the resurrection of Jesus from the dead and what it means to all Christians! In fact, most of my (and the fellowship I affiliate with) writings are on the Resurrection. I will absolutely agree with you that through Jesus' resurrection from the grave that both "hades and death" are to be destroyed - after Judgment Day.

Then what concerns me here in particular is THE DAY OF THE WEEK Jesus rose from the dead on.

I see that :-) It's true that there were more than one Sabbath day the week Jesus was crucified and resurrected. On the first day of the week, i.e., SUNDAY, Jesus was no longer in the grave. Every SUNDAY our assembly celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus - not just the day the majority celebrates ONCE per year. As for Saturday, that was Jesus' last day and night in the grave, according to the Bible.

“The Seventh Day” which truth the Sabbatharians most of all the Seventh Day Adventists hate and reject.

It matters little to me what Sabbatharians think of the Seventh Day Adventists.

May the Lord have pity on them.

That should be "May the Lord have pity on ALL OF US!"

Re: “On the first day of the week, i.e., SUNDAY, Jesus was no longer in the grave. Every SUNDAY our assembly celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus”.

Seeing “on the first day of the week, i.e., SUNDAY, Jesus was no longer in the grave”, why – it’s only logical..... don’t you celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus on every Sabbath which was the day upon which He rose from the dead? Even more because of the spiritual power unto its observance which the historical truth of Jesus’ Resurrection for ever must have for the day He resurrected on?

Yes, indeed, Saturday was, “Jesus’ last day and night in the grave, according to the Bible.” Correctly speaking though – “according to the Bible” – it was the Sabbath – the Seventh Day. Its day the equivalent of Saturday daylight, and its night the equivalent of Friday night. Jesus rose “MID-AFTERNOON SABBATH’S” is what Mt28:1 unequivocally says.
