Luke 4:16
(It was the custom of Jesus to teach in the synagogue on the Sabbath day.)
Mark 2:27-28
(The Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath? Then Sunday cannot be the Lord's day, because it says in the scripture above that if there is a Lord's day the Sabbath is it. Jesus never said that the Sabbath was done away, instead He claimed authority over the Sabbath.)
Ex 31:13
(The Sabbath is the sign of God's people, that we belong to Him.
Ex 31:17
(The Sabbath is a sign forever, so it is not going to end. The Sabbath is not for the Jewish people only, it is for all of mankind. So, then the fourth commandment is still in effect for all of God's people.)
Num 15:15-16
(Some say the Sabbath was just for the Jewish people, but even in ancient Israel there was not one set of commands for the Israelites and another for the Gentiles. No, there was one manner for both. And it is the same way today. No double standard.) (After the Resurrection the Sabbath was still being observed)
Acts 13:42
(The disciples still kept the sabbath and holy days after the resurrection and taught Gentiles to do the same. Paul taught the Gentiles and made them wait till next sabbath for more preaching. Why didn't Paul usher in Sunday at this time? If it was done away? Surely he would have known if there was to be a new way, wouldn't he?)
Rom 10:12
Acts 17:1-2
ICor 16:1-2
(This scripture says nothing about a church service. Instead they went out into the fields to gather. This was real work. Considerably harder than going to the field today on a Sunday morning to gather would be, because we now have modern equipment to do the work for us. Also, they couldn't work on the Sabbath so they did the gathering on the first day of the week.)
Col 2:16-17
(These people in Colosse were Gentiles. The people who lived in Colosse were observing the pagan holidays and were sun worshippers. So obviously, if the newly converted Christians in that area were receiving criticism, it would have to have been because they were observing God's holy days and Sabbaths. Would not have even been an issue if they had been doing as the Gentiles around them, and worshipping on the day of the sun.)
Acts 20:6-7
(This took place on a Saturday night. This was simply a meal too, not the Lord's supper. On Sunday Paul journeyed which in those days was not a restful thing to do. Usually meant walking many miles.)
(The Sabbath was kept by the church until AD 325. When the Sabbath day was changed at the Council of Nicaea by the Roman emperor Constantine.
