"The Lord's Day"

(Rev. 1:10)



The following suggest that the first day of the week (Sunday) is the Lord's day.

  1. Jesus was raised on the first day of the week (Mark 16:1-9).
  2. Jesus met with His disciples several times on the first day (John 20:1,19,26).
  3. Pentecost came on the first day of the week (Lev. 23:15-16); hence, all of the events of Acts 2 took place on that day--first gospel sermon, first converts, beginning of the church, etc.
  4. The church assembled on the first day to partake of the Lord's Supper (Acts 20:7).
  5. Christians were commanded to give on the first day (1 Cor. 16:2).
