I was wondering about Mathew 5:18-19.

5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

When you read the 4Th commandment it says:

KJV - 8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

My question is:

Why don't most churches worship on Saturday and why do most people feel compelled to use Sunday (the day of sun worshipers) as a day of worship and rest?

When the bible seems to me to be very clear on this. In Jesus's own words: (one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law)

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven

In verse 18, Jesus was referring to his fulfilling the law in our place. He fulfilled the law perfectly, thus the law could be done away with. Back up one verse (which is always a good thing to do anyways). Jesus says he is not come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. The law and the sacrifices were all pointing to him. The smearing of the blood on the mantels for Passover made the shape of the cross. Sacrificing the firstborn lamb without blemish. Everything points to Jesus.

As far as the first day of the week goes, that was the day Jesus was resurrected. He was crucified on Friday, hence the name Good Friday, and rose on Sunday. Also, in Acts 20:7 the disciples came together to break bread, and in the KJV it seems like they did this regularly, Paul came and preached to them and kept going until midnight.

Paul says in 1Cor 16:2 to lay store offerings for the church on the first day of the week.

Then why doe he say:

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

If we no longer needed to follow it.

Where does the guy wind up in that passage?

He shall be the least in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Under the law where does he wind up?

Not in Heaven at all.

You can break the laws and still go to heaven. Prior to Christ, everyone stood condemned by the law. EVERYONE. Nobody was not condemned. The Highest standing judge and the lowest pedophile were equally condemned by the law.

Just as everyone today is condemned by the law. The new covenant says that even though we are condemned, we can obtain mercy, or leniency or grace if you will, by having our criminal defense attorney Christ take up our case. First we have to admit our guilt, then we put it in our lawyer's hands.

And we pray and try to abide by the law, knowing that we can't ever really do it.

Amen.

Very well put.

That may be true.

Although that does not diminish the case that Saturday is the day intended for rest and worship.

There is an official Vatican document basically bragging about the pontiff’s power since the Catholic Church was able to change that day to Sunday.
