> One of my Teevo members asked about the controversy regarding the Sabbath day being on Saturday, and which church might be doing it wrongly — the Sunday goers or the Saturday goers?

ππ€π’π“πŽπ‘ π‚π‡π‘πˆπ’:
Okay, so which is it — the Sunday goers or the Saturday goers?

𝐑𝐄𝐕. π“πŽπŒ:
πŸ”΄ Thank you very much, sir. The issue of the Sabbath — whether it’s on Saturday or Sunday — actually has no controversy.

πŸ”΄ The Sabbath day is known to be the seventh day of the week, that’s Saturday.
But the early church began meeting on Sunday, which is the first day of the week, because it was the day of Jesus’ resurrection.

πŸ”΄ They didn’t claim that Sunday became the Sabbath — no!

πŸ“– Matthew 12:8 — 
> “For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath day.”
πŸ“– Acts 20:7 — 
> “And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread…”

πŸ”΄ The early Christians met on the first day of the week, not the Sabbath, to celebrate the Lord’s resurrection.

ππ€π’π“πŽπ‘ π‚π‡π‘πˆπ’:
πŸ”΄ So, you can rest your mind — there’s no dispute about the Sabbath.

πŸ”΄ The Sabbath day was indeed Saturday, the seventh day.
But in Christianity, we’ve been brought into God’s real Sabbath.

πŸ“– The Bible says, 
> “We are now in His rest.”

πŸ”΄ That means we’re no longer observing a weekly Sabbath — we’re living in the fulfillment of the true Sabbath in Christ Jesus!

πŸ”΄ When God commanded His people to rest under the Law, it was symbolic — a type of the rest we now have in Christ.

πŸ”΄ Now, we’ve entered into His rest.
The Sabbath is every day for the believer.
Your whole life is in the Sabbath now!

❗️π–π‡π˜ 𝐖𝐄 πŒπ„π„π“ 𝐎𝐍 π’π”ππƒπ€π˜:
We meet on Sundays because the early church met on the first day of the week — they called it “The Lord’s Day” — to honor the resurrection of Jesus.

πŸ”΄ But again, it’s a matter of convenience.

πŸ”΄ In some Middle Eastern nations, where the weekend or public holiday is Friday, Christians meet on Friday instead — not Saturday or Sunday — and that’s perfectly in order.

πŸ”΄ Because in Christ, we are already in the Sabbath.

πŸ”΄ Whichever day you appoint for worship is acceptable — what matters is that you’re walking in His rest.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
