IN the NEWS - MSN.com Pushes Sunday Sacredness

"On November 24, 2024, MSN.com, the software, news service, and technology company, published through its web portal an article that openly advocated for Sunday as the day for Christians to attend

church and for the community to rest and recover. The article made many claims, including the illusion that Sunday sacredness has its origin in the word of God. The many statements made by MSN are not only categorically false but are part of a deliberate campaign to deceive the public and pave the way for the acceptance of the counterfeit Sabbath during the mark of the beast crisis.

MSN published the following assertions, which are full of errors:
• “Across the world, Sunday holds a special place in the hearts of Christians as a day dedicated to worship, reflection, and community. For centuries, it has been observed as a holy day, with millions attending church services to honor their faith and renew their spiritual connection.”
• “The tradition of Sunday worship finds its origins in the Bible and early Christian practices. According to the New Testament, Jesus Christ rose from the dead on a Sunday, an event celebrated as the Resurrection. This made Sunday, often referred to as the “Lord’s Day,” a sacred occasion for Christians to gather and commemorate the foundation of their faith.”
• “Sunday worship is an opportunity for Christians to pause from their busy lives and dedicate time to God. Attending church services allows believers to engage in communal prayer, sing hymns, and hear sermons that inspire and guide them in their spiritual journey.”
• “The Eucharist or Holy Communion, central to many Christian traditions, is often celebrated during Sunday services, serving as a reminder of Christ’s sacrifice and love.”

• “Sunday is not just about religious rituals; it also emphasizes rest and rejuvenation. Modeled on God’s rest after the creation of the world, as described in Genesis, the day encourages Christians to reflect, spend time with loved ones, and prepare for the week ahead.”
• “Church services on Sunday foster a sense of community among believers. It is a time to connect with fellow worshippers, support one another, and engage in acts of charity and outreach. For many, Sunday church is a cornerstone of their spiritual and social lives.”
• “Despite the changing dynamics of modern life, Sunday continues to be a sacred day for Christians worldwide. It is a time to draw closer to God, nurture faith, and reaffirm the hope that lies at the heart of Christianity.”
While MSN may present their message under the guise of moral or social concern, their Sunday rhetoric aligns closely with a broader agenda to normalize practices that undermine biblical principles and that will one day erode religious freedoms during the final crisis. The insistence on promoting Sunday as a “holy day” is an attempt to push society toward a counterfeit version of worship and devotion. This kind of manipulation is exactly what Scripture warns against.

Even though many Christian denominations observe Sunday as the Sabbath, there is no Biblical evidence to support the idea that Sunday replaced the Saturday Sabbath. In fact, the Bible consistently points to Saturday—the seventh day of the week—as the Sabbath, and there is no scripture that indicates a change to Sunday as the day of rest or worship.
“And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made.” Genesis 2:2-3.
This passage clearly identifies the seventh day as the day of rest, which is later referred to as the Sabbath. "
