IN the NEWS - Christian Post spreads Fake News

"The Christian Post wrote an article titled “Why should I go to church?” on April 24, 2024, asserting that Sunday is the “eternal Sabbath” and the Lord’s Day. Additionally, they falsely claimed that in heaven, the angels gather from Sunday to Sunday to worship God. Tragically, The Christian Post has blurred the lines between Biblical truth and pure fiction. 
Sunday rest is the product of the imagination, while Saturday, the true Sabbath, is rooted in the word of God.

The Christian Post published the following statements, fraught with grave errors and intellectual dishonesty:
When we meet together on the Lord’s Day with our brothers and
sisters, it is a foretaste of that great day. We need to recognize that reality when we gather with the Lord’s people not only in our local congregation but around the globe, as well as with the church triumphant in heaven and the angelic hosts
.”

Our earthly gatherings Sunday by Sunday are meant to cultivate a longing for the eternal Sabbath. In the Old Testament, the Sabbath day was particularly characterized by rest. That aspect of the Lord’s Day still remains, and we are told to look forward to that eternal rest. But in the New Testament, one of the changes to the Lord’s Day is that it is increasingly characterized by worship.”

Attempting to pass on error as Biblical fact is a deception that betrays the integrity of the Scriptures. It undermines the credibility of those who spread such false information.
God’s word is clear: the seventh day, Saturday, is the true day of worship and eternal rest.
For He spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all His works … There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God … Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest. ......For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before Me, saith the Lord. Hebrews 4:4, 9, 11/Isaiah 66:22, 23."
