Where in the Bible is written to go to Church on Sundays or any day?

Answer 1

I agree with the above post, but "technically" the Sabbath is Saturday.... If you search out the Word of God and use history, you will see that the 7th day of the week is Saturday, and Sunday is the first, so really the Sabbath is Saturday...

No, I am not 7th day Adventist, I have spent some time researching that subject.

With that being said, we were commanded to keep the Sabbath Holy and to worship God on the Sabbath. We just recognize it on the wrong day.. but at least we do it :)

FYI......I agree with the myriad of answers around mine using the Bible to support why we should keep the day Holy and go to church...

Answer 2

In Acts 20:7 it shows the practice of the early church: "And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached to them." For Christians in every location, regular gathering was a part of life.

However, the New Testament makes it clear that the observance of a particular day was not imposed as a binding obligation. Romans 14:5-6 makes it clear that there was some freedom in the matter of special days. Colossians 2:16-17 commanded the church not to allow anyone to act as their judge in regard to sabbath days.

Answer 3

In the Holy Bible it says: We should go and Worship in the House of the Lord. To gather together and pray together. So Believers and Christians , went by the Beginning of time in the book of Exodus , Chapter 23, verse 12 : Six days thou
shalt do thy work and on the seventh day thou shalt rest. The Sabbath of the Old Testament was the seventh day , on which God rested.
This is the third Commandment:

Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy.
What does this mean ?
We should fear and love God so that we do not despise His Word and the preaching of the same, but deem it Holy and gladly hear and learn it.
It is wonderful, when many gather together to hear and worship the word of God.

Answer 4

The Sabbath is the Sabbath. Christians doesnt see Sunday as the Sabbath. You can never take 6 and make it 7. Sunday is worshipped as the "Lords Day" for it was early Sunday morning while it was still dark that the women came to the tomb and found the stone had been rolled away.

The Sabbath was a part of the Dispensation of Law. But the Dispensation of Grace came by Jesus Christ. The Sabbath Day was according to the Law.

The Law of which Jesus said; I came not to destroy but to fulfill. The Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus was just that. The fulfillment of the Law.

The Death as the Lamb of God was the fulfillig of the day of Atonement - as the Passover Lamb. The Sabbath of Rest, was fulfilled in His Burial, and His Resurrection was the Fulfillment of the Wave Sheaf Offering.

The "first day of the week" as is recorded in most English translation of the Bible is speaking of Sunday. However is a misintrepertation of the original Greek which is the "first of Sabbaths." This day in the original is called the first of Sabbaths. Because it is referring to the day of the Wave Sheaf Offering, and the 50 days leading up to Pentecost. Within this period of time, there are Seven Sabbaths.

(Note) Most people are unware that during crucifixion week of Jesus, there was two Sabbaths. (1) The Annual Sabbath, and (2) the Weekly Sabbath.

In the Bible we read that "after the Sabbath had passed" they went and bought the spices to prepare the body of Jesus. Then another place we read that they rested the Sabbath, and went to the tomb the very next morning.

PS: I believe in the "Two Sabbaths" because the women could not purchase the spices after the Sabbath, yet prepare those spices before the Sabbath—unless there were two Sabbaths.

With the two-Sabbath view, if Christ was crucified on Thursday, then the high holy Sabbath (the Passover) would have begun Thursday at sundown and ended at Friday sundown—at the beginning of the weekly Sabbath or Saturday.

And, purchasing the spices after the first Sabbath (Passover) would have meant they purchased them on Saturday and were breaking the Sabbath.

Therefore, the only explanation that does not violate the biblical account of the women and the spices and holds to a literal understanding of Matthew 12:40, is that Christ was crucified on Wednesday.

The Sabbath that was a high day (Passover) occurred on Thursday, the women purchased spices (after that) on Friday and returned and prepared the spices on the same day. Then they rested on Saturday which was the Weekly Sabbath, then brought the spices to the tomb early Sunday.

As stated Jesus was buried near sundown on Wednesday, which began Thursday in the Jewish calendar. Using a Jewish calendar, we have the three days and three nights - Thursday night (night one), Thursday day (day one), Friday night (night two), Friday day (day two), Saturday night (night three), Saturday day (day three). “For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth."

We don't know exactly when Jesus rose, but we do know that it was before sunrise on Sunday according to John 20:1. The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

Answer 5

It's not written to go on Sundays. That's just tradition. A tradition started by Constantine because he worshipped the Sun god which Sunday is named after.

Constantine liked christianity, but remained pagan until he was baptized christian on his deathbed.
He is responisible for most of the tainting of the true christian religion.

But we are indeed suppose to gather and worship frequently.
With man being man, it's best he do it more than once a week to keep the faith in front of him.

Heb 10:24 and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and good works;
Heb 10:25 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see the day drawing nigh.

Answer 6

well we see that Jesus said he would build HIS church, and not synagog as they had in those times.. Why would he start a church is no one was expected to go?? Also you see that the Apostles started going to church on the first day of the week, which is Sunday instead of the synagog which was Old Testament and Sat..
Heb 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Act 20:7 And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
Mat 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
1Co 16:2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

Answer 7

The bible speaking to believers says to assemble yourselves together, so much more so when you see the day approaching, meaning the end of days, the signs pointing to the end times as Jesus told us concerning the tribulation of today, the practice of witchcraft, homosexuality, murdering of babies in the womb, in a word, abounding iniquity, and the wars and turmoil in the nations, and the earth showing the coming of judgment with earthquakes and volcanoes erupting.

The bible doesn't say to go and sit in a church where the pure word of God is subordinated to the modern gospel that teaches that God loves us unconditionally, placing popular psychological characteristics upon God and displacing holiness with unity among believers and non believers.

Answer 8

It tells us in the Bible to worship on the Sabbath and to take rest on the seventh day. Jews regard this day as Saturday, but Christians say it is on Sunday.

Answer 9

mmm Many will tell you to keep the Sabbath, but that is the Old Testament and that is not what we do in the new testament .. Plus a lot of other things that they did under that agreement.
Jesus said "this is the New Testament in my blood"
Heb 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament,
Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

Answer 10

Nowhere in the bible are people commanded to attend church on Sunday.

We are commanded to keep the Sabbath holy. That's on Saturday. In other places we are told that the Sabbath is a holy convocation, or time of meeting.
