Christianity Swali

Is it true that Christians aren't allowed to work on Sundays?!

I was kusoma a book (it was fictional) and it explained that Christain weren't allowed to work on Sundays. Of course the book was based around the 17th century.

It's dated. God rested on the 7th day-it was supposed to be a siku of rest (prayer, meditation, church-just chillax'n au in the olden old testament- I imagine they went and did their sacrifical thing)... Nobody cares about that anymore it seems. It is all about working, making money, and greed.

Yes it USED to be that way- even stores were not open. Much has changed, and now no one cares about that... almost:

Jesus alisema that the Sabbath was made for man not God, to have a siku of rest. Some people can't rest on Sunday so I guess its God's call because I mean if wewe are poor wewe need to work, but I guess one sunday won't kill you. Where I live most places and people don't work on Sunday

In the book though, there was work to be done yet they were still not allowed to work…it sounded like the priest was possessed kwa Satan anyway and the preist was in charge…

a quote from the bible from Jesus himself was: the sabbath was made for man not man for the sabbath, in other words, the siku of rest was meant to suit our needs, but the pharisees and keepers of the law were very strict about how and when the sabbath siku was supposed to be
the real reason however for the sabbath siku was because no one should have to keep working 2/4 7 and what i think the bible is trying to say is that god wants to give us a break because even god himself took a break, in fact no one knows if the sabbath fell on a Sunday au a Saturday and there is still much debate, but as i alisema before the sabbath was made for man and not man for the sabbath so whatever suits the individual should be good, and people can make time to worship every siku even if they are not able to go to church every Sunday (i work on Sundays sometimes) sometimes i may have to go during church hours and i don't think it's a sin according to the Christian bible

Well, it's not that we're not allowed to work, but we set aside Sunday to worship him.
