Do you accept the Seventh-day Adventist interpretation which views it as the Seventh-day Sabbath?

The view held by Seventh-day Sabbathkeeping churches, including Seventh-day Adventists, maintains that the Lord's day of Revelation 1:10 designates the seventh-day Sabbath. This conclusion is based on the fact that Christ declared himself to be "Lord even of the Sabbath"(Mark 2:28).

Historically, Seventh-day Adventists have interpreted the "Lord's day" of Revelation 1:10 as a reference to the Seventh-day Sabbath which is Saturday and not Sunday. Sunday is the first day of the week.

The Lord's day is the Seventh-day, the Sabbath of Creation. The Sabbath was observed by Jesus Christ. The Sabbath was as sacredly observed by John on Patmos as when he was preaching to the people in the towns and cities of Judea.

Sunday observance did not begin until A.D. 117-138), under Emperor Hadrian. The Sabbath is the Lord's Day. The Sabbath was all John knew when he wrote Revelation.

twincrie.. No where in the scriptures that you posted did it say that the 1st day of the week is the Lord's day.
You are twisting the scriptures which is very dangerous.

The Lord's day is the Sabbath!

Mat 12:8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
Mar 2:28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
Luk 6:5 And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

All Jews observed the Sabbath then, as they do now. The first Christians were Jews, they observed the Sabbath. The Bible tells us that the 1st day of the week was set aside in observance of the resurrection of Christ, it was known as the Lord's day. Revelation 1:10 is speaking of the 1st day of the week, Sunday. Jesus tells us, in the Bible, that He is Lord over the Sabbath, and that everyday is to be a day of worship, not putting one day above another.

John was "in the spirit" on the "Lord's day". To conclude this is a particular day of the week is being rather loose in your interpretation. But then, I have heard Sunday keepers use the same rationale as you now are.

This is a book written in figurative and allegorical language. Are you rejecting the possibility this "day" has to do with the return of Christ to the earth? Or are you so quick to try and plug the sabbath day into everything imaginable?

The Lord's Day is different than the Sabbath. The Lord's day is the first day of the week. Christians who want to gain salvation through the law of Moses are rejecting the gift of salvation through Christ.

1 Corinthians 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.

Acts 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.

read colossians 2 it tells us the Jesus nailed the sabbath and ceremonial laws to the cross. Yes the SABBATH IS SATURDAY no doubt about that, Christ rose on sunday also. Revelation was written after Christ's death was it not? of course so then your last sentence is wrong, because it was nailed to the cross so no that is not what John was talking about.

A definite period of time during which the Lord Jesus Christ brings certain things in connection with God’s purpose to a successful conclusion.

In Biblical usage the word “day” may denote a period of time far longer than 24 hours. (Ge 2:4; Joh 8:56; 2Pe 3:8) Contextual evidence indicates that “the Lord’s day” of Revelation 1:10 is not a particular 24-hour day. Since it was “by inspiration” that John came to be “in the Lord’s day,” the reference could not be to some particular day of the week. It would not have been necessary for John to have been inspired to come to a specific day of the week. Therefore, “the Lord’s day” must be that future time during which events that John was privileged to see in vision would occur. This included such happenings as the war in heaven and the ouster of Satan, the destruction of Babylon the Great and the kings of the earth and their armies, the binding and abyssing of Satan, the resurrection of the dead, and Christ’s Thousand Year Reign.

The context points to Jesus Christ as the Lord whose “day” it is. Immediately after coming to be “in the Lord’s day,” John heard, not the voice of Almighty God, but that of the resurrected Son of God. (Re 1:10-18) Also, the ‘day of the Lord’ mentioned at 1 Corinthians 1:8; 5:5; and 2 Corinthians 1:14 is that of Jesus Christ.

The Lord's Day is Sunday, the first day of the week.That is the day Jesus resurrected, that is the day the Apostles gathered and celebrated the Eucharist.

The Sabbath is Saturday the 7th day
