Most JWs I come across tell me that the Sabbath is when they partake in the Memorial ::hard laughts:: DO most JWs think this way? The reason this came up, is I was doing research on the Sabbath, and from what I have found....for those who are still Christians, we are in error because we practice it on Sunday. Doing teh research of the History of the Sabbath on Sunday, It seems like teh Catholic Church is doing more harm then good.
Do JWs even know the definition of the Sabbath is?

Honesty
Christians follow the example of first century believers:
On the first day of the week, we assembled to break bread. Paul spoke to them, and since he was about to depart the next day, he extended his message until midnight. Acts 20:7
Now about the collection for the saints: you should do the same as I instructed the Galatian churches. On the first day of the week, each of you is to set something aside and save to the extent that he prospers, so that no collections will need to be made when I come. 1 Cor 16:1-2

IMO, that can be seen in a few ways. Acts 20:7 can be interpited as Paul preached on Saturday Night, and then left on Sunday Morning ta Midnight. BUt the 2nd paragraph has nothing to do with the Sabbath. As I did my research, even Jesus observed the Sabbath on Saturday. I have never came across scripture where Jesus or GOD actually changed the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday.
