Upon the First Day of Every Week Jarrod Allen
NEW LEXINGTON, Ohio — On this Sunday, March 31, 2024, members of South Main Church of Christ are assembling at our church building for our weekly worship service.
According to the inspired word of God in the New Testament, the church met on the first day of the week to worship God. One of the acts of worship that God authorized in the New Testament is remembering the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ on the first day of the week by partaking of the Lord’s Supper. (Acts 20: 6, 7) (Luke 22:19) (I Corinthians 11: 24, 25)
But why was Jesus’ resurrection considered special? Bible scholars cite multiple reasons, including because the inspired apostles and prophets said that it was.
Only Jesus performed miracles as proof of his divine nature. Jesus performed miracles to bear witness that He was, Himself, the Son of God as he claimed to be. The writers of the Bible explained that the resurrection of Jesus was more important.
In Romans, chapter one, verse four, “Jesus was declared to be the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the ‘dead.'” It, alone, was specifically foretold in the Old Testament.
In his sermon on the day of Pentecost, in Acts II, Peter affirmed that God had raised Jesus from the dead because it was not possible for the grave to hold him. No resurrected person other than Jesus had his or her resurrection foretold by an Old Testament prophet, nor did any inspired apostle or prophet in the first century apply Old Testament prophecies to them.
Jesus’ prophecies were so widely known that after his death, his enemies requested that Pilate place a guard at the tomb.
