Hi, Ive been thinking about this and want other peoples opinions. Which is the right day for worship. Sunday isnt the right day since the 'sun' in Sunday refers to the Roman sun god Sol Invictus and Saturday refers too Saturnus the Roman god of agriculture and harvest. Sunday is the first day of the new week not the seventh day. The seventh day is a Saturday hence the Seventh Day Adventists. Should Christmas be held in April right after Easter Holiday since thats the truth and the month in which Jesus Christ was really born. Is the decoration of Christmas trees against the Christian religion or not ? According to articles the decoration of Christmas trees is a pagan tradition adopted by the Christians. December 25 is not the real Christmas but the birthday of the Turkish saint Saint Niklaus or Santa or whatever you like to call him. Go have a look at the following sites:

Sunday because Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath, and He rose from the dead on Sunday. Jesus also gave His authority to His Church to decide on such matters. And His Church decided long ago to worship primarily on Sundays.

Honestly, I'm Pagan, so you can discount anything I say and I won't be offended and I certainly don't mean to offend you.

But really, does it matter which day you worship your God? Names are arbitrary. So some folks named a day after the Sun, and a bunch of months are named after Pagan Gods and Emperors too. Is your God really that picky that he's going to throw you in Hell for worshipping Him on the wrong day? For your sake, I hope not. And if He is, you'd think he'd at least play fair by spelling it out for you. I know, 7th day, but that's arbitrary too. In Europe the week starts on Moon-day so Sunday is the 7th day, but here Saturday is the 7th day. The only way you could really get it right is to follow that calendar Moses used. Is that what He wants? Maybe you should worship every day. Just to be safe.

>>Which is the right day to worship?<<

Worship the Lord everyday. On Sunday, gather together for communal worship. "On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread..." -- Act 20:7

>>December 25 is not the real Christmas but the birthday of the Turkish saint Saint Niklaus or Santa or whatever you like to call him.<<

The site doesn't say that. St. Nicholas' feast day is celebrated on the anniversary of his death, December 6th -- at least on the Catholic calendar. That 'Santa Claus' now takes the focus away from the Baby Jesus on the OBSERVANCE of His birthday is the doing of Protestants.

To tell you the truth it doesn't matter which day that you worship on , but rather where your hear its when you are worshipping...for all God cares you could worship on Wednesday!! As for the day you celebrate Christmas, I'm not sure why we celebrate when we do....maybe they don't want two holidays one after the other!?! I don't believe that decorating the Christmas tree is something that is against the Christian theology...we just do it, it is a tradition....I don't know if this what you wanted...but it is what I believe....

Every day is the right day to worship.
Saturday will always be the sabbath.
You can gather with your church on Sunday, which is traditional with Christian Churches, or Saturday is your church gathers together then.

Jesus taught that the Sabbath was made for man, and man was not made for the Sabbath.

I always look at Sunday worship with my church as an interesting view of giving God our first fruits of the week, rather than the last fruits.

You have the freedom to do as you wish.

After the Resurrection and on for about 300 years the Church worshiped on Saturday. Then both the primitive church and the emergent catholic church started experimenting with Sunday worship(emphasis on the first day of the week).
It does not matter a bit--just assemble and WORSHIP the living God.
People get caught up on the past all too many times.
DON'T WORSHIP A HISTORICAL CHURCH; WORSHIP A HISTORY MAKING CHURCH!

Everyday is the right day to worship. Do not think so much of the day, but only think of the good deeds you will be doing. In doing that you are respecting all the rules of worshiping and your minutes and seconds will have meaning.

The "Right" day to worship is ANY DAY, ANYTIME anyplace. There is no "right day" truly for God wants us to worship always! Saturday is correct if you want to be technical about going to church, but that is for the sabbath or day of rest however, some have that anytime during the week if the work a weekend and most of us have it on Sunday. Church or no church, anyday anytime, anywhere is the right day. :)

This is where people have been wrong.
The Bible say there is only one day of rest: The seventh-day called Saturday or Sabbath. Human beings as against the Law of God, the Ten Commandments: the fourth says:
Of course that has been changed by the Catholic Church, and in their prayer book, or Cathechism, it has become the 3rd commandment, and the word Sabbath has been changed into The Lord's Day. But in the Bible until the the new earth, the Sabbath day and not Sunday, or the Day of the Sun God is the day of worship. Isaiah 66:22,23.
No wonder many people will be rebuked and rejected by Jesus who call them "Lawless" people or transgressors of the Law of God:

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ Matthew 7:21-23.
