Since we are no longer under the Old Testament law, we, as Christians, no longer worship according to Old Testament rules. I think he was just wanting us to set 1 day up a week where we could have a sabbeth day. Mr. Hunt, I believe Jesus did not tell us to go to church because he knew it would become ritualistic and without meaning for most. What Jesus did tell us is that we need to change our outlook on life and make God the center of it, not a building. Mr. Hunt, I guess sunday is the 'sabbath' of the New Testament.
Scripture does mention that the apostles met on the First day of the week to break bread.
This would equate to our present sunday. Before I start, I am a member of the Seventh-Day Adventist church. I have strong non-denominational inclinations, and I believe that God will judge each person by their personal beliefs and motivations, as well as, their obedience to the truth, both truths that are plainly evident, and truths that have been inspired on an individual level directly by the Holy Spirit. However, this decision by the Catholic church has no spiritual or logical implications to the truth-seeking and honest individual. According to the history of western civilization, the Catholic church also believed that the world was the center of the known universe, that human beings required intermediaries other than Jesus Christ for both the atonement of our sins and for the help of human saints, and most notably, for taking upon themselves the mantle of judge, jury, and for all practical purposes, executioner of those people who did not believe what the Catholic church insisted was the truth, in both religious and secular realms.
