My mother is 7th day

My mother is 7th day adventist, and there the observance of sabbath as worship day is a very serious matter. My father is eastern orthodox and for him resting and not working and going to church on sunday. After becoming personally interested in christian faith, I read New Testament and nowhere saw some strict commandments regarding a day of week, so I was really relaxed about saturday or sunday. But people are born in church, and think that this is BIBLE RULE, because nobody preaches about this, and because they don’t read the Bible themselves, without the ‘glasses’ they received while in church.

Even the hour of gathering was is not something strict, or the number of services, or clothing, like suits. In this respect I agree with Mark Driscoll that we should be fundamentalist in theology but liberal in culture.

7th day adventists ling on some passages in Isaiah and Genesis, to point that Sabbath is not Mosaic, but Edenic, and taht it will be observed in the New Earth too.
