| Study name | Sabbath—First Day? |
| Study code | SFD |
| Next to the opening note in the back of your Bible write: What did Early Christians do on the first day? | |
| Matthew 12:8 | If Jesus changed His day from Sat. to Sun., surely His disciples would have worshiped on Sun. |
| Acts 20:7 | #1-This was a Sat. night meeting. |
| Leviticus 23:32 | Sabbath begins in the evening. |
| Acts 20:7 | #2-No morning service would have lasted all night! This was a farewell service, as Paul planned to leave in the a.m. |
| Acts 20:36–38 | On Sun. a.m. Paul boarded a ship. Not a Sabbath activity! |
| 1 Corinthians 16:1–2 | The believers in Judea were suffering from famine (see Acts 11:28–29). Paul suggested the Corinthians put something aside for them on Sunday, when they settled their accounts. |
| John 20:19 | [Double underline "for fear of the Jews."] They were not gathered in honor of His resurrection, because they did not even know He was alive. |
| Luke 24:1–3 | Jesus rose on Sunday. Should we worship then in honor of His resurrection? |
| * Romans 6:3–6 | Christ gave the ordinance of baptism as a memorial of His death, burial, and resurrection. |
| Genesis 2:3 | The only day God made holy. |
| * John 14:15 | We honor Jesus by obeying Him—not by honoring a day He never asked us to keep. |
* This text is used in more than one study
This study was taken from Young Disciple magazine, vol. 5, #36.
Note: Viewing Strong's numbers will give you the number after each word. If you wish to just look up a verse, I would suggest not selecting that choice.
