Hi
I am helping a fellow Christian who has a room mate who attends a Messianic Jewish fellowship.
Among the things he has asked me about is whether or not the Sabbath should rightly have been changed from Saturday to Sunday.
Groups like the Messianic Jews and SDAs believe the Sabbath should still be on Saturday.

Among the passages in Scripture that I believe are relavent to this matter are Acts 20:7.
However, those who believe that the Sabbath is still Saturday counter that arguement by saying things like the following:
Quote
Acts 20:7: Paul is described as preaching on a Sunday evening. It was evening, because the passage refers to lamps being lit. Some Christians promote this text as demonstrating that Paul held a religious service on a Sunday. Others suggest that he gave the teaching on what he would call Sunday evening but we would call Saturday evening; the first day of the week started at sundown on Saturday in 1st century CE Palestine. If Paul considered Sunday to be the Sabbath then he would not have set out on foot to Assos on Sunday morning.

I want to check my facts before I get back to my friend on this matter. If anyone can help me with the arguement above it would be helpful.

I have sent a few articles from the Highway to my friend to read about this matter, such as: http://www.the-highway.com/Edwards_sabbath1.html

Thank you
Tom
