Never on a Sunday: it is the day of rest


 Never On Sunday https://youtu.be/D0FIBA4CAfs?si=efOdyzbVYA9s2Xyk

In Christianity, Sunday is known as "The Lord's Day" because it is the day Jesus Christ rose from the dead, a pivotal event in Christian faith. This day marks the completion of God's work of creation and the beginning of the new creation 
inaugurated by Christ's resurrection. Therefore, Sunday is celebrated as a festival, a time for Christians to remember Christ's resurrection, celebrate the Eucharist, and gather for worship. 

Resurrection Day:
Sunday is specifically identified as the day Jesus rose from the dead, which is why it is often referred to as "Easter Sunday". 

New Creation:
The resurrection of Jesus marks the beginning of a new creation, replacing the older covenant, and Sunday becomes the first day of this new creation. 

Lord's Supper:
The Eucharist, or Holy Communion, is a central part of Sunday worship and is seen as a celebration of Christ's presence and the resurrection. 

Festival Day:
Sunday is a festival day for Christians, a time for rejoicing, remembering, and celebrating the events surrounding Jesus's resurrection. 
Worship:

Christians gather on Sundays for worship services, where they hear the word of God, participate in the Eucharist, and remember Christ's passion, resurrection, and glorification.
