text in the New Testament which speaks of a religious servicebeing held on the first day of the week and one would not wantto make a whole doctrine dependent upon one text! However,upon examining this text in great detail, we can see that thisservice was held in the evening of the first day of the week.The Jews’ day began at sundown and continued through thenext day until sundown. (Genesis 1:5,8,13,19,23,31, andLeviticus 23:32) Therefore this meeting was held on Saturdayevening and continued until early Sunday morning, at whichtime Paul left on his trip. So Paul spent most of Sundaytraveling, not at church. This certainly does not sound likePaul was observing Sunday as a Sabbath, does it? God’sWord, the Bible, never speaks of the Sabbath being changed toany other day. Furthermore, the Bible does tell us that Jesusand the early Christians held church services on the SeventhdaySabbath (Luke 4:16, Acts 13:14,44, Acts 15:21, Acts16:13, Acts 17:1-2, and Acts 18:4).A pastor who observes the Seventh-day Sabbath has a currentchallenge on his website offering a million dollars to anyonewho can produce “a verse from the Holy Bible showing thatGod commands us to keep holy the first day of the week” –Sunday – “instead of the seventh day” – Saturday – “as iscommanded in the Bible” (www.seventh-day.org). World NetDaily News ran an article about this offer. This news article isposted on the pastor’s website and contains the followingamazing admission. “I am afraid that you are not going to findan exact Bible verse to counter the good pastor's challenge andcollect,” says James Efird, professor of biblical interpretation atDuke University Divinity School in North Carolina. “As far as17
I know, there is no verse which specifies that Sunday is the dayfor Christians to observe the Sabbath.”God’s Yearly Holy DaysLeviticus 23:4 states, "These are the feasts of the LORD,even holy convocations, which ye shall proclaim in theirseasons." (Lev 23:4 KJV) The word seasons in this passageagain comes from the Hebrew word mo’ed, which you mayremember means “an appointment, i.e. a fixed time or season;spec. a festival; conventionally a year; by implication, anassembly (as convened for a definite purpose)”. All of thefestivals listed after verse four in this chapter occur only on ayearly basis.We strongly suggest that you carefully and prayerfully readall of Leviticus chapter 23 to get the complete picture. We willonly quote those verses that directly apply to the yearly HolyDays. We will briefly point out each of the Holy Days in thischapter and then will point out the prophetic significance ofthese days later on in the book.The first month of God’s calendar generally begins on thefirst new moon after the spring equinox, which is about March21. The new moon is marked when the first sliver can be seen,which is different from the new moon on your calendar, whichoccurs during the dark part of the moon. You can see the sliverof the new moon low on the horizon right at sunset. Fromsundown when you see the sliver of the new moon untilsundown the next day is day one of the new month.18
