There have been many kinds of days throughout time.  Once Saturday stood for “the Sabbath”,
​a day of rest that was commanded by God.  In Gen 2:1-3, the Lord took a personal Sabbath, resting from the work of creating the world. When the Israelites left Egypt, God taught them to keep the Sabbath and they did so until Christ took it away by His death on the cross. Ex 20:8-11. Ex 31:12-17.  Col 2:13-17. 
 
However, we are writing about the first day of the week which is Sunday.  In the bible, this day is called the “Lord’s Day”.  It is the day when the saints come together to observe the communion and give into the treasury of the local church. Acts 20:7. 1 Cor 16:1-4.  It is to be a day when men do what God expects, and not use the day exclusively for their own selfish pursuits.

If a man has $75,000 in the bank plus $100,000 investment in gold bars,
he has real estate of 90 acres and he also has stocks and bonds valuing up to $325,000. 
If you heard that; you would say that this man's portfolio is very great.  
 
However, if a man invested believing that wealth is what life is all about; he could die in a second
and that would all go to someone else.  Luke 12.13-21. Jas 4.13-15.

Jesus taught not to place much emphasis upon material things.  He said it could be lost and thieves could steal it. Matt 6.19-24     
 
People today find it hard to break away from the things of this life and to think about the hereafter. Matt 19.20-23.  But everyone must do so, because none is going to live forever. Heb 9.27    
​Man will be going into the hereafter and needs to make sure preparation is made.  Heb 4.13

I have obeyed the gospel of Jesus Christ. I listen to the story of how he came to this earth to rid men of their sins, by having men be baptized in water to have those sins washed away. I responded when the preacher said is there anyone who wants to be saved?  I was taken to the baptism pool and I was immersed in water. I came up out of the water ready to serve in the Kingdom of God.   Every morning when I get up; I always ask myself what can I do to make my service better?    Whoever is reading this; if you have not listened to a sermon on the gospel of Christ, his mission to save men.

You need to contact this church.  We will teach you the message of salvation.  Afterwards, you can do what I did, you can be baptized in water and have your sins washed away.  Then start a new walk in the way of the Lord.  Romans 6.1-17

​Some believers find themselves being the only saved person in a city. This isn’t a very good feeling, because the saint is surrounded by all kinds of perverted behavior without backup from other believers.   Even the apostle Paul felt that way while he was in Athens awaiting the arrival of other saints to help him with the evangelism.  The bible teaches us that his spirit burned as he saw the whole city addicted to sin. Acts 17.13-16.
 
And remember this, Athens was addicted to sin because no one had ever challenged the life that they were living.  And that is where it will begin for every believer who finds himself in such a situation.  The system of living will need someone to stand up and say, “I want to show you another way!”   Acts 17.22.    Now don’t get me wrong, I’m positive that won’t be easy, but people who stand up are counted by many, as worthy of respect.
. 
Jesus knew it was best to send teachers two by two, that way they could encourage one another. Luke 10.1.  Eccl 4.9-12.  Let us not be afraid, the Lord is with us. Acts 18.9-10.   Pray about it and get ourselves pumped up and do what you can, but never plan to keep yourself alone, find a believer willing to work with you. Acts 8.5-15. Acts 13.1-5.
