Sunday Church Creationism
My my my how religion loves to create rules, forms, formulas, laws, and traditionalism(s). Sunday is a day of rest, but how I grew up, SUnday sure didn't feel like rest. Up early Sunday while my neighbors slept in. Sunday school, church, lunch with leadership, home to change clothes, back for training union, Sunday night servie and home by 9pm to sort out my "work clothes" for Monday.
Seems to me as though God really RESTED on that allegorical seventh day- otherwise known as the Sabbath.
And it seems to me that I remember the prophets alluding to God saying something like, "You observe days, months, seasons, and years and I am afraid that you LABOR in VAIN! Oh can I get and give a WITNESS on that one. Is going to church all day long really observing the Sabbath? :-(
And the silly ideas that we Americans derived from "making a formula" out of the Sabbath. o you remember the blue laws?
>No dancing on Sunday.
>No beer purchases until church is out at noon as though Jesus would approve of that one.
>Bars couldn't open until after 1pm on Sunday thinking that would make people go to church.
Did anyone think that people could stock up on Saturday evening and not really give a rip if beer could be purchased on Sunday. And isn't forcing or trying to manipulate people to go to church on Sunday morning not in keeping with the Spirit? And who came up with the rule that you had to go to church on Sunday anyway? I guess the Seventh Day Adventists didn't get the memo.
And neither did the jews from when we got the Sabbath stuff to start with as they get it on starting Friday night at 6pm.
Have you ever wondered what other LAWS that the church tries to force on people isn't God as well? I guess w should just leave all of that alone. But it surely seems that the church has created a lot of things that God didn't, and that Jesus didn't adhere to anyway.
