God's opinion is most important ... and fortunately he revealed it in his Word the Bible which declares we are no longer limited to what day
Colossians 2:16
[ Freedom From Human Rules ] Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day.
Do you know the differences between Sabbath Day and sabbath days?...
No Saturday is the Sabbath so you do not work Saturday , where as the Church is on Sunday in most cases which represent the day after the Sabbath which Jesus was Resurrected from the dead , which is the very basis of the Christians faith .....................See there is No law from God on the day which people must worship the Lord for Christians as long as people remember to worship the Lord daily or weekly which is the motive of the Sabbath , as people ignore God and do not worship Him and forget to bother altogether .....................Where as Christians should have the Holy Spirit on their lives and should bring the Holy Spirit to church to do a work for Christ ..................... So go ahead and go to church on Saturday night knowing that God will not send a thunder clap against your life, and Jesus will not have eternal judgment waiting for you after your days in the earth .....
Then why did the early church continue to attend synagogue on Saturdays until the bishops in Rome changed it to Sunday?...
I just don't understand the entire Saturday/Sunday debate. Christ warned us to avoid legalism, after all.
So let's take a fireman or an emergency room doctor, professions that require you to work long shifts on Sunday. So if those people attend church on Saturday or even Friday night, are they condemned by God for worshipping Him on the wrong day of the week, even though their duties to help others require working on the Sabbath? That's just complete nonsense.
Considering the Sabbath is traditionally from sundown Friday evening to sundown Saturday evening, to attempt to "keep the Sabbath" by having Church on Saturday night isn't biblically accurate either. Friday evening or Saturday morning would make more sense, but keep in mind that if one wants to try and "keep the Sabbath", the concept goes far beyond attending Church on Saturdays. Every time you turn on your car you ignite your spark plug and are kindling a fire which is of course forbidden under Judeo-Christian Law.
I work retail and sometimes my schedule only allows me to attend church on Saturday nights. However, I feel guilty for not going on Sunday. In your opinion, does it really matter the date you attend service?
ask yourself this ... WWJD?
I believe he would say, "go on Saturday, or go on Monday, or go on any day that helps you be the best "you" you can be.
I would put forth, Jesus spoke against literal religion. So I believe he would also tell you to try and miss a few weeks to be sure you are not locked into a tradition (literal religion)or human habit pattern (ocd). He would abvously tell you this in a helpful and loving way. Far better than an atheist like me could.
Going to church on Sat. or Sun. or Wed. or whatever makes no difference at all. The idea of the "sabbath" , a day where all rested and worshiped went out with the OT.
Ro 14:5 One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
Ro 14:6 He who regards one day as special, does so to the Lord. He who eats meat, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains, does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God.
Reading that whole first half of Rom. 14 should help you understand.
I thought the command to Israel under the law was the seventh day. Can you show me the word "Saturday" in the scriptures that you are referring to?
In the NT, if one pays attention, they were always going to Synagogue on the Sabbath...In Genesis it is written that G-d rested on the 7th day and hallowed it...It is commanded as a statute forever, to observe the Sabbath...

That is what Paul said...
