Col. 2:16 ^“Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. ¹⁷These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.”

Looking at this verse straight on makes you think you can choose whatever day you want for the Sabbath and no one can judge you for it. Without knowing the scriptures and time frame of this verse, it is easy to misinterpret it. First of all sunday worship sisn’t exist at this time, so there is no justification for sunday worship here. Actually, the Jews had many days of rests that were based on events in their history, i.e. when they defeated the Assyrians (as we take off for the 4th of July). However, when the gentiles came to believe in Christ, the natural-blood Jews began to judge them for not honoring a particular day of rest, or sabbath since the word sabbath means rest. So Apostle Paul told them to not let anyone judge them (the gentiles) by a sabbath day. Notice, he said “a” sabbath day and not “the” Sabbath Day; the day to worship God as the day of rest was already written in stone.

When it speaks of the realities being found in Christ, we can see the reality of Moses’s law found in Christ. For example, under Moses’s law the Jews could not work and many offerings had to be made every Sabbath (Ex. 31:12-16; Num. 15:32-36; Num. 28:9-11; Lev. 24:5-9). However, as we find the reality in Christ, we must see the example of Christ set for us to follow as Christians. (John 13:15)

Luke 4:16 ‘He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. ¹⁷The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:
 ¹⁸“The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
      because he has anointed me
      to preach good news to the poor.
   He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
      and recovery of sight for the blind,
   to release the oppressed,
    ¹⁹to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

 ²⁰Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him, ²¹and he began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”‘

The reality of Moses law is worship in spirit and in truth (John 4:23-24), but there is still worship. The day never changed, only how it was done. (Heb. 7:11-12) Why would God from the very creation show us and tell us to honor the 7th day, Sabbath, then change it to sunday in honor of Jesus’ Resurrecion? We will always thank Our Father Ahnsahnghong for revealing all truth!

Num. 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie,
       nor a son of man, that he should change his mind.
       Does he speak and then not act?
       Does he promise and not fulfill?

They say that since Church of God World Mission Society worships on satuday and the rest of the world worships on sunday, this church must be a cult. Looking at that claim scripturally, the 7th day is the Sabbath Day and it is the day to worship. It’s written in stone! (Exo. 20:8-11). 

We know the Resurrection of Christ took place on sunday, which is why we commemorate His resurrection every year on a sunday. Modern Christians call it “Easter.” So what does the Bible say?

Mark 16: ^{9 ‘}When Jesus rose early on the first day of the week…”

“Easter” sunday = Resurrection sunday = 1st day of the week

Mark 16:1-2 ‘When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus’ body. ²Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb…’

God told us to worship on the Sabbath. The Resurrection of Jesus took place after the Sabbath. The Sabbath Day and sunday, the 1st day, can never be the same. Even Jesus kept the Sabbath Day:

 Luke 4:^{16 ‘}He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. ¹⁷The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:’

Jesus regularly kept the Sabbath Day, no not ’cause He was Jewish! If that were the case, he should have slaughtered lambs which was the regulation for Sabbath worship in Jewish law (Num.28:9-10), not just read the Bible. That’s why Apostle who, who some 10 years became a Christian kept the Sabbath too!

Acts 17:^{2 ‘}As his custom was, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures…’

The Sabbath is saturday and the true day to worship God according to the Bible. SO where does sunday fit into all of this?

“Constantine did indeed retain the pagan high priest title Pontifex Maximus…when in 321 AD Constantine made the first day of the week a holiday, he called it the venerable day of the sun, or sunday.”

Sabbath comes from God. Sunday comes from a man. Church of God World Mission Society keeps the Sabbath Day, saturday which is what Christ Ahnsahnghong has taught us. All the other churches keep sunday which is what Constantine, who believed in the sun, made. And Church of God World Mission Society is a cult? I don’t think so…
