Hi:

I think Rich Leino brings up a good point. So I would like to ask:

Is the observance of Sunday a matter of Christian Liberty?

To those who may say "yes" I would like to ask if the whole of the 10 Commands are subject to Christian Liberty? How then would you justify a person committing Adultery or Perjury or Murder when you say that the 10 Commandments are subject to Christian Liberty?

If you define your Christian Liberty on Sunday as "doing whatever I want" - which directly contradicts the 4th Command - then how can you condemn someone else who violates a different command out of the pretext of "Christian Liberty"?

I believe that the book of James says somewhere that if you violate one of these commands it is as if you violated all of them.

I once heard a preacher say that he wishes his congregation was as excited about worshipping God as they are watching their favorite Football team score a touchdown.

It makes one wonder....

Blessings,

-CH
