If one hour a week is too much to ask of someone in the worship of God.... well maybe that someone ought to look for another "religion"

Like Catholics actually obey the Sabbath?

We all know better, especially those of us raised Catholic.

One "hour" a week, coming in late and leaving early, is NO sacrifice at all.

For born again believers we consider every day of our lives to be a sacrifice to God in obedience to Him.

Romans 12:1-2 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

You'd be surprised ! You've never been to a TLM Mass either I can tell. But yes we agree.... many just go through the motions missing the incredible Grace of having Jesus Christ- body, Blood Soul and Divinity available to them everyday. Ane there is Mass everyday you knucklehead ! You know that---
I only pasted the Didache text to document that the very First Christians did in fact believed definitively in Celebrating the Mass on the "Lord's Day"

24/7 Jesus ??
No way ! who could live like that?
I would ask how that's workin out for ya... but no - deep down we all know better. We're ALL frauds... Me - you -everyone running around claiming "I'm with Jesus " ! Were just pretend Christians.... WHAT in our lives are we doing to truly imitate Christ -as Christ ? Sure were all "Good People".. but so can Atheist be good people. Good for you though... most of us fail the Lord daily, hourly and are unworthy of his Flesh

Some of us still have to go through the fear and trembling deal... and it aint pretty... and it aint about self-deception neither...
God have mercy on us all when he does pull the plug..
Christ gave su TWO Commandments - not one...They're inseparable to him....
