On Saturday July 5, Pope made a historic statement about Sunday keeping.
According to AP New, Pope Francis traveled to the heart of southern Italy where unemployment is chronically high and lamented the abandoning of the traditionally Christian practice of not working on Sundays, saying it has a negative impact on families and friendships. The pontiff indicated that opening stores and other businesses on Sundays as a way to create jobs wasn’t beneficial for society.
Francis said the priority should be “not economic but human,” and that the stress should be on families and friendships, not commercial relationships. He added: “Maybe it’s time to ask ourselves if working on Sundays is true freedom.”
He said that spending Sundays with family and friends is an “ethical choice” for faithful and non-faithful alike.
(Sounds like he believes Sunday should be kept by everyone?)
He encouraged parents to spend more time with children, quipping: “Waste time with your children!” He said he liked to ask parents, “do you play with your children?”
Reminds me of the words of Jesus, Luke 4:21 “… This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.”
Yes! It’s time to pull up our socks.may be we could ask;why did God allow all these to happen? What is the right time to preach the gospel? Which denomination can lead us to heaven? Should we follow religions?can religion take us to heaven? Now as all the religions are geting rotten,should we still get continued with them?God for bid,the bible says;a true worshiper will worship God in truth and in spirit.now the sunday law is being set ablaze,yet the true sabbath worshipers(leaders) are the members of the eccumenical mevement.now where is the truth in religions?worship your God in truth and in spirit.me and my house we shall worship the living God on the right day,the right place and at the right time.WATCH OUT,IT’S FOR REAL!
Let us serve God no matter what. We should not waste our time with earthly pleasure. Let us diligently share the GOSPEL to those who have never heard. In that way there are many souls will be saved and be ready before it’s too late. Pray also that our faith will be strengthened by the Holy Spirit as we draw near to this great tribulation.
