why we have church on a sunday when the bible says, we suppose to have church on a Saturday.

Point is either way it goes, if we had church on a Saturday it wouldn't make any difference to me on a Sunday what y'all think?

What Does the Bible Say About the Sabbath? | whyileft.org
I don't think it has to be a Saturday or a Sunday. ... However, the Bible does say that we should fellowship with fellow believers (Heb. 10:24) ... (This is my personal opinion): If the church that a person is attending is not loving and/or doing good ...

I think Sunday is better simply most people have that day off can go more freely on Sunday

To settle this debate, my church has services on Saturday evenings AND Sunday mornings. Voila! Problem solved! (And the Bible doesn't really say "Saturday"... it says that God rested on the seventh day (the Sabbath) and so we should keep it holy. The days of the week as named are a modern contrivance... so it's up to interpretation as to whether Saturday or Sunday is the Sabbath.

Well the catholic church decided that since pagans worshiped on sun day they would change the sabbath to Sunday so everyone could attend on the same day hince, the name of the last day of week comes from pagan religion Sun Day they worshiped the sun. true story look it up. It was all a evil plan to do away with the pagans

The practice is to habitually betray god. We made it that way so we can secretly mock the faithful by, on even a very basic level, showing how stupid it is to believe in god.

Bible KJV doesn't say that, the Sabbath was for Jews and when Christ was born he fulfilled the law and thus every day of the week is for your Christian services, not just be one on Sat or Sun.

The Bible says SABATH' which basically means 'seventh day'. It neither mentions Saturday or Sunday because there were no calanders or day names when God said to rest on the seventh day, or sabath. Jews chose Saturday. Chistians chose Sunday. Neither is wrong or right. We just need to keep one day per week as a holy day of rest. If you had church services on a Thursday or Friday or any day, thats fine.

You are absolutely wrong. In many languages, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Czech, Hebrew just to name a few, the name for Saturday is derived from Sabbath. English uses pagan names, and uses days in honor of Saturn and the Sun. But no one shod doubt Sabbath means Saturday. You are also wrong about the literal meaning of the word. It does not mean seventh day. Sabbath means stop, cease, rest (same sense as prosecution rests in court). Look at my threat for my answer.

Like what Dustee said, Sabbath was for the Jews in the Old testament. Not the gentiles. And, Christ fullfilled the law of the Old testament. It's not about the Sabbath anymore. We should have every day as Holy and simply "live" Holy.

Jews, including Jesus, celebrated the Sabbath as God commanded, on Saturday. More precisely from sun set on Friday to sun set on Saturday. The first Christians did the same. 50-60 years after Jesus they added sermons and readings about Jesus to the usual Sabbath services of Saturday, and did that on the following day. The Jewish Christians continued to do that, but the gentile Christians started to do only the Sunday thing. Eventually the Jewish Christians disappeared, and the church was entirely controlled by the Gentiles. Moreover, they wanted to separate themselves as much as they could from Judaism. That's also why they messed with the date for Easter.

The new Christian Easter date actually is derived from the pagan celebration of the resurrection of a child born from the sun god, Baal, and a witch imbued with the powers of a goddess by Lucifer. When you do research into the past its funny to find what modern Christians worship would call others heretics for believing. It's almost as if hypocrisy was weaved into the religion itself.
