The 7th Day groups worship the Day of Rest when God finished his work!
Those who worship on Sunday gather in rememberance of The Resurrection of Christ overcoming Death, absolving us of sin by his sacrifice and rose from the dead.
His death also freed us from the Old Law as said in Jeremiah
Jer 31:31
¶
Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Jer 31:34
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
This is the New Covenant St Paul constantly talked about.
"Those who worship on Sunday gather in rememberance of The Resurrection of Christ overcoming Death, absolving us of sin by his sacrifice and rose from the dead."
That's my reason to celebrate Sunday as the sabbath. Clearly,the death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior is a good reason for celebrating Sunday as a day of rememberance and rest. My concern is the contention this person seems to delight in finding an "aha" moment about Catholicism and it's truth. Surely she can argue something far more distinctive about the belief in purgatory or the eternal virginity of Mary. I mean no disrespect to my brothers and sisters in Christ. I wonder why one would start with Saturday versus Sunday worship. That isn't a deal breaker with God. Belief in paying a sin debt in a second chance made up place is straight from hell. Hell is a REALplace. I was raised as a Catholic and even attended parochial school. My parents (devoted catholics) have both gone to be with the Lord. They knew the point of God's only begotten Son giving Himself as a sacrifice and accepted that truth as the only reason they would be allowed to enter heaven.

That’s about it. Trying to justify any day as holy after Christ is actually showing a bit of doubt about Christ’s work. By his miracles, words, and resurrection from the dead he fulfilled the prophetic requirements and allowed believers in him to have a new covenant with God. One where everyday is holy, and the benefit is to any true believer and true follower of Christ, regardless of ethnicity, former religions, forgiven and no longer practiced sins.
The early church met on what we call Sunday as that day signifired when the new covenant started.
Any assertion as to the importance of one day over another is ignoring what Christ has done.
“This is the New Covenant St Paul constantly talked about.”
Not true as far as the Sabbath goes. In all Paul’s testimony on the New Covenant and all Lukes recording of Pual’s acitivites in Acts, nowhere does Paul honor (practice) or promote a different Sabbath than the 7th day Sabbath. The change to Sunday did not accur until centuries after Paul.
——>Those who worship on Sunday gather in remembrance of The Resurrection of Christ overcoming Death, absolving us of sin by his sacrifice and rose from the dead.
Please show all of us the command from Christ, from the bible, making that true. The command would have to come from Christ and only Him. The New Covenant went into effect at His death and His blood sealed it. The bible is absolutely void of any such command/change.
...The Last Will and Testament of Jesus Christ

When did the New Covenant go into effect and who is the mediator?
Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Heb 9:15 And for this cause he [Jesus] is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of [His] death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
Heb 9:16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
Heb 9:17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
The New Covenant came into effect with the sacrifice, shedding of blood, and death of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ. As this Testament of Jesus Christ was put into effect by His death, the terms of the Testament cannot be changed by anyone after that.
Gal 3:15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man’s covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.
A covenant, testament or will cannot be changed by anyone once the testator has died. Paul in Hebrews 9 is saying that the New Covenant is the last will and testament of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and as such it is not subject to alteration or annulment of its terms Gal 3:15. The terms of the New Covenant, in effect from the moment of the death of Jesus, and not subject to change by anyone, are the Ten Commandments of God. The Ark of the Covenant / Ark of the Testimony contained the substance or terms of both covenants, the Ten Commandments. It is impossible that the Sabbath commandment could be changed, that Sunday could replace the Sabbath in the New Covenant, after the death of Jesus on the cross! To attempt to change the terms of a last will or testament after the death of the testator is illegal and fraudulent in any court of law.
