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

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.

This part is quite a puzzler, think I'll look it up.

For one thing, I don't quite understand "one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law...". What is a jot and what is a tittle?

Also the part about he who be called least in the kingdom of Heaven and he who will be called great in the kingdom of Heaven sounds to me as if there are different levels of Heaven. I'm certainly no bible scholar though.

The old manuscripts do designate 'heaven' as 'heavenS'. I haven't come across any details of various levels, but that certainly doesn't mean they are not found in Scriptures--I just haven't come across it yet.

I do believe there are 'levels', if you want to call them that.....perhaps based on the degree of your 'rewards'.........for doing the various things Jesus told us to do, i.e., care for the helpless, widows, children, those in need....live a godly life, praise and worship God, etc. Pray and read Scriptures to enlarge your knowledge and understanding. Faithing. Those sorts of things. I believe that some do lots more than others and their 'special rewards' will be greater than others, still.

I could be wrong, but I"m not worried about it. It doesn't figure into what I believe, how I faith, or the things I do as Jesus said to do. :)

Levels -

Jesus hinted at it with the parable of the talents, and Paul, when he said that he'd "rather be a gate-keeper in the House of the Lord..."

There may be lots of other examples, but those two, popped to mind.
