Question:

How did we decide that Sunday is the seventh day or the resting day which we give to god. What is the supporting bible evidence for this Sunday?

Answer:

Sunday is not Seventh Day but it is the First day of the week.

If you are asking about Saturday, then

God Rested on 7^th day, which is Saturday. (Gen 2:3)

Thus, Israelites were told to rest on the 7^th day. (Exo 31:15; Exo 16:23)

Seba represents 7

7^th day is the sabbath day.

Early Christians gathered on the 1^st day of the week. Because,

•  Jesus rose on the first day of the week not the Sabbath: Mk 16:9

•  All 6 appearances of Jesus happen on Two Sundays, none on Sabbath. Mk 16:9; Mt 28:5-9; Lk 24:34; 13-15; 33,36, Jn 20:19; 26

•  Christians are recorded assembling three times on Sunday after resurrection and before ascension, never on the Sabbath. Jn 20:19 Jn 20:26 Acts 2:1

•  The only time Christians are recorded to have assembled together was on a Sunday in Acts 20:7, never does it say the disciples assembled on the Sabbath.

•  The only day ever mentioned when Christians broke bread was on Sunday: Acts 20:7

•  Christians are commanded every Sunday to give into a common treasury of the church: 1 Cor 16:1-2

•  The church officially began on Pentecost Sunday: Acts 2:1

•  The Holy Spirit first fell upon the apostles on a Sunday: Acts 2:1-4

** Christians shall be bound to the New Testament laws
