What I pointed out was that if the writings of Paul seemed to contradict the revealed commandments such as the Sabbath which is very unlikely considering the fact that Paul was writing for GOD, we should searched for more in his other writings in order to find out whether what he meant is really what we have first understood. And I said, as I experienced, Paul really didn't write any contradiction. That is, the Sabbath is Saturday and Paul teaches not anywhere in the bible that we should make our worship day Sunday. > >John Clark >jclark@ucsd.edu -- Rey V.
