Did jesus actually change the sabbath day?

I asked one of our elders which day was the sabbath according to the bible. he told me that it was on saturday before the death of jesus,but when he died,peole had to worship on the day of rezurrection.this amazed me so much because jesus said that he...

came not to destroy the law but to fullffill en that the world will pass away but his word will stay 4ever mind you he was there before creation and the law says that we should rest on the seventh day.so did he acctually change the sabbath day?

In Latin, Saturday is still called Sabbath (I forget the exact spelling). We interpret the third (some number it the fourth) commandment to keep one day each week as holy, a day with God, kept apart from unnecessary business and other distractions. However, as rneakw says, we celebrate the Resurrection of the Lord, the eighth day of the new creation. That is one reason that most of our saints' holydays are not celebrated on Sunday: it is more important to celebrate with the Risen Lord.

However, this change is not a big problem for most Christian Churches. Only the ones who insist on interperting the Bible literally find the commandment to Keep the Sabbath holy a sticking point when we actually keep the Lord's day.

The Sabbath is still the Sabbath it is the day the isrealites were commanded to honor the lord under the old law. . . Christians meet on the first day of the week not the sabbeth in honor of the risen Lord. We are no longer under the law of moses which was given to the Isrealites. . . Unless your an Isrealite living under the Torah ( Old testament your not bound by the Old law. when Cheist went to the cross the old law was fulfilled and the new law was ushered in.

THE WORD SABBATH MEANS REST _ CHRIST BECAME OUR REST . WE ARE TO REST IN THE LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST ... REMEMBER THE SABBATH AND KEEP IT HOLY... REMEMBER CHRIST AND KEEP HOLY ALL DAYS NOT JUST ONE DAY A WEEK...

Sabbath and worship are two differant things. The sabbath day did not change, you rest on Saturday, the seventh day. We should worship everyday (not being preachy here, I'm certainly no posterchild for daily worship) but church is generally on Sunday, both because of Christs reserection AND you shouldn't work on Saturday.
