On The First Day Of The Week

What was so special that Jesus would select the First day of the week
as the day upon which disciples would gather together to worship God?
When one takes a look at some of the events that happened upon the
first day of the week, then it may be easier to understand.

1.  God began creation upon the First day of the week.      [Genesis 1:5]
2.  It was the day that Jesus was Resurrected.              [Mark 16:9]
3.  It was the day the disciples first saw Jesus alive.     [Matt. 28:1-9]
4.  The day God declared Jesus to be His Son, with Power.   [Romans 1:4]
5.  It is the day in which Jesus became Head of the Church. [Acts 2:30-33]
6.  It is the day when Jesus Established His Church.        [Acts 2:47]
7.  It is the day when the Holy Spirit came with Power.     [Acts 2:1-4]
8.  It is the day when Peter used the Keys of the Kingdom to
    open the Kingdom to all men.           [Matthew 16:18,19; Acts 2:36-41]
9.  It is the day when 3,000 souls were baptized.           [Acts 2:41]
10. It is the day that disciples came together to observe
    the Memorial feast Jesus established.           [Mark 14:25; Acts 20:7]
11. By Revelation, John called it "the Lord's day".       [Revelation 1:10]
12. Pentecost was the First day of the week. When the Gospel was preached
    on Pentecost, it was therefore on the First Day of The Week
    that the Gospel was preached for the first time.      [Acts 2:1, 14-40]

Christians are "new creatures" (2 Corinthians 5:17) in Jesus Christ. When
we are Baptized, we also are "resurrected" with Christ (Romans 6:3-6).

Now, what is so important that YOU cannot be with other Saints, to offer
Worship to the God of Heaven upon the First Day of the Week? [JW]
