Question 6
What should we do when man’s laws conflict with God’s law?
Bible
Acts 5:29
"We ought to obey God rather than man."
Mark 7:7
"In vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."
Answer
When forced to choose, we should obey God rather than man. Jesus says it is vain worship when we teach the commandments of men as Bible doctrine.
Below is a list of Protestant theologians who admit that the Bible doesn't support Sunday observance;
Baptist: "The Sabbath day was not Sunday…There is no scriptural evidence of the change of the Sabbath institution from the seventh to the first day of the week." Dr. ET Hiscox, author of the Baptist Manual
Congregationalist: "The current notion that Christ and His apostles substituted the first day for the seventh is absolutely without any authority in the New Testament." Dr. Lyman Abbot
Methodist: "It is true that there in no positive command for infant baptism. Nor is there any for keeping holy the first day of the week. Many believe that Christ changed the Sabbath. But from His own words we see that He came for no such purpose. Those who believe that Jesus changed the Sabbath base it only on a supposition." Amos Binney
Presbyterian: "There is no hint in the New Testament about abstaining from work on Sunday. Canon Eyton
Baptist: "The Scriptures nowhere call the first day of the week 'the Sabbath'." The Watchmen publication
