Colossians 2:16 (KJV) 16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:
Romans 14:5-6 (KJV) 5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

Jim Lincoln wrote: the Sabbath and First Day are not the same thing, The Sabbath will always be on Saturday
Not only do you use a bad translation of Scripture but you are not acquainted with the Christian Sabbath.
"The subject is one which is of immense importance. It is not too much to say that the prosperity or decay of organized Christianity depends on the maintenance of the Christian Sabbath. Break down the fence which now surrounds the Sunday, and our Sunday schools will soon come to an end. Let in the Hood of worldliness and pleasure-seeking on the Lord's Day, without check or hindrance, and our congregations will soon dwindle away. There is not too much religion in the land now. Destroy the sanctity of the Sabbath, and there would soon be far less. Nothing in short, I believe, would so thoroughly advance the kingdom of Satan as to withdraw legal protection from the Lord's Day. It would be a joy to the infidel; but it would be an insult and offence to God." Sabbath: A day to keep. J.C.Ryle.
Well, as I commented just a little earlier, but I see it has to be put here as well, the Sabbath and First Day are not the same thing, The Sabbath will always be on Saturday, (listen to, Legalism is Shadow, Christ is Substance) The Seventh Day Adventists and Jews have that right! The summary for the above sermon as follows:
Gil Rugh said or, wrote: Nowhere in the Old Testament is there any word that the Gentile nations ought to observe the sabbath , or keep the law. It was for the nation Israel. People come presenting supposed truth that will help us be more godly and will stem the tide of decadence around us. These are subtle forms to corrupt the sufficiency of Christ and His work accomplished in our lives.

I hope, since Marty and I agree here he won't mind if I comment, since thinking about it from another thread. If Jesus Christ is Lord of the Sabbath as the Scripture teaches, and Paul teaches Concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh and declared to be Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead, then it is rightly called the Lord's Day or Christian Sabbath. This is the testimony of both the Old and New Testaments. The first day of the week is the answer.

But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates..." (Ex 20:8-10) Is each "holiday" on the Sabbath (the seventh day when God rested) or on Sunday?

Get rid of 'em all, pesky hangers-on from the Dark Days.
"A spokeswoman said: “The DVD is not a seasonal release and thus its content spanned more than just Christmas."
Liar!! This is a political correctness change, - after all why else do we have a quote "winter holiday?" If a child turns round and asks "Why do we have a winter holiday daddy?" - Daddy will in all probability say, 'Because its Christmas.'
Political correctness are changes worked by lefty Liberal loonies, since other religions couldn't care less and many of them do Christmas anyway.
Gil Rugh said or, wrote: . . . Sadly, while millions and millions of people celebrate Christmas, it is the few who are doing so in recognition of the Lord Jesus Christ as the prophesied Messiah and the only Savior from sin, who worship Him. Worshiping Him as Savior while anticipating His return to the earth as King to rule and reign over the kingdom He will establish.
