Why go to Church only on Sunday?

Hey guys, I'm new here, but I found this discusion interesting. Some Christians Only go to Church on Easter Sunday and Christmas. Their are Lots of steriotypes in all Religions! I'm sure we can think of some Muslims stereotypes, anyway...................Not all Christians only WORSHIP or go to Church on Sunday. Some of Christ's followers or Christians, actually still worship on the original Sabbath that was given to Moses and Israel. The Seventh Day, Saturday. But that, like some have pointed out is set aside to seperate and give you rest from the cares and burdens of the world. It is not however the only day you should worship your Creator and Savior.

Youre correct.
I would correct you on one point however...the day of rest of which you speak was given to mankind at creation when it was given to Adam & Eve, who were not Jewish, and all their decendants.

Okay. It was a long day yesterday when i chimed in....... You are right in that fact that GOd told Adam and Eve to rest on the Sabbath. It was NOT a jewish specific Belief. But their original world was a lot different than ours or even that of Moses. They really didn't have to work, until they where banned from the Garden. Their Desendants moved farther and farther away from God and he had to narrow the world to Noah and his family....... I guess i was referring to the Written Law Given to Moses and Israel. The Decalogue or Ten Commandments in which the 4th is REMEBER the Seventh Day. Which, IMO a lot of Christians forget to do.........

Youre right about that.
People have a tendancy to do "what feels right to them" rather then follow the principles of the Bible which they profess to believe. They also feel free to make adjustments, additions, and subtractions to Biblical instruction and principle by substituting man-made nonsense. It makes perfect sense that Christ would say...
"Not everyone who says to me,'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will tell me in that day,'Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works? Then I will tell them,'I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity"
