* Christ Ahnsahnghong established true Sabbath day *

Christ Ahnsahnghong established true Sabbath day 
(Ahnsahnghong/Sabbath day/Church of God)


I am so excited as I am getting ready to go to my first Sabbath day service. I cannot wait until tomorrow for this great day on which I can receive blessings, rest and be made holy. 


Now that I know the true sabbath day according to the bible is saturday I will make every effort to go every saturday.


This day is so amazing because right after creation God rested, blessed, and made the 7th day holy.


Genesis
2:1-3 If you think about it, does God almighty who created the heavens and the earth need rest? No, does God need to be blessed? No, does God need to be made Holy? No. I know I need these things, God made this for us. Since the creation God has set aside a specific day for us to receive rest, blessing, and be made holy. This sounds very important.


Exodus
20:8-11 It is so important that is part of the 10 commandments. If you believe would you follow these 10 commandments. According to the 10 commandments the 7th day is a Sabbath to the Lord our God. Sabbath – a day of rest and worship. We know the the 7th day is the day of rest but how can we determine what is the 7th day.
Let us look at a calendar which we use in our daily life.  By looking at the calendar we know that Sunday is the first day of the week and saturday is the 7th day of the week. To confirm even more let us go to another source. The Dictionary.
Using the Merriam-Webster Dictionary Sunday: First day of the week Saturday: Seventh Day of the week. Dictionary is a very reliable source would you deny definitions? But all of these are man-made, I want to know what is the 7th day of the week according to God. As we we know many Christians celebrate easter which also known as Easter: a feast that commemorates Christ’s resurrection and is observed with variations of date due to different calendars on the first Sunday after the paschal full moon. As we know easter always falls on a sunday which represents resurrection of Christ. So let us see according to the bible what day did Jesus ressurect.
Mark
16:9 Jesus rose on first day of the week, which is sunday. NLT: 9 After Jesus rose from the dead early on Sunday morning. We can see through the bible that sunday is the first day of the week but lets confirm.
Mark 
16:1-2 When the Sabbath (saturday) was over, very early on the first day (sunday) of the week. We can see through the bible that Saturday is the 7th day of the week. That is why Church of God World Mission Society keep the Sabbath on the true worship day Saturday. It is so important for us to keep the day according to God not ourselves because we all sinners.



Sabbath day is a sign between us and God Exodus 31:13 this will be a sign for generations to come so we should keep the Sabbath for we can have a sign between us and God. 


I am so excited that I will be keeping my first Sabbath in Church of God.
