...should Christians keep holy the Lord's Day? And is one element of that, worshipping God on Sunday with our fellow Christians? And --- as to Sunday in particular --- why or why not?

I intend on publishing video services from my Church here... I'm leaning toward the Devotional tag but haven't decided yet. It's very sacred to me. Yesterday's sermon was 'I WILL GUARD MY MOUTH' On Psalms 39:1-5 and 'CITIES OF REFUGE' on Numbers 35:9-28, Arcana Coelestia 9011:3. Very appropriate for FR.

The text from the Arcana from the service is:

[3] This describes the state of one blameless and freed from punishment, who through the falsities of faith which he had believed to be truths, or through factual knowledge based on the illusions of the senses, has injured someone, and so has done harm to his internal or spiritual life. To convey this meaning such an accident or chance is described by an implement of some kind, and by a stone which he causes to fall onto his companion so that he dies, and also by the axe or iron coming off its handle, while both were cutting down timber in the forest. The reason why such details are used to describe the matter is that 'an implement' means some known fact, and 'a stone' a truth of faith or in the contrary sense a falsity; and in like manner 'the iron of an axe' and 'cutting down timber' means to argue about what is good, using what one's religion teaches. ~ Secrets of Heaven 9011:3

I hope you ask Jim Rob's permission first. From what I know, Free Republic is not intended to be a substitute for a personal web site. Seeing that you are promoting a non-orthodox religious viewpoint, JR may not want Free Republic to be THE location "all" your followers come to for their fix. Plus, there are some specific rules for threads tagged as "Devotional".
