SATURDAY AFTER THE CROSS

 

The day after the crucifixion of Christ in the New Testament, was named SATURDAY: "After the Sabbath." (Mark 16.1), "on the first day of the week." (Luke 24.1).

The Holy wives "on Saturday, were left alone by the COMMANDMENT" (Luke 23.56).

 

The first Christians (the Church in Antioch and not only) observe Saturday and on this day were going to "listen to the word of God" (Acts 13.44).

From the Cathedral in Jerusalem in 51 AD, learn that addressed Gentiles HAD REGULAR MEETINGS on Saturdays. "The law of Moses from ancient lineages in all cities is advocating it and is read in synagogues (houses of prayer) every Saturday" (Acts 15.21).

The Apostle Paul carried out the service in Philippi on Saturday: "on the day of the Sabbath we went outside the city to the River, where, as usual, was a HOUSE of PRAYER, and the North spoke to assembled there by women" (Acts 16.13).

Church in Thessaloniki also met on Saturday, Came in Thessaloniki ... and Paul ... three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures "(Acts 17.1-2).

The Church at Corinth is also observed Saturday: "after these things Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.  In all Saturday spoke to them in a synagogue and conviction gave the Jews and Greeks "(Acts 18.1-4).

 

Because the word of God calls the seventh day Sabbath after the crucifixion of Christ and the early Christians observe Saturday, considering it binding, then it is OBLIGATORY also for current Christians.
