Is GOD pleased with the names of week days?
Where did we get the names for the days of the week? Sunday: The first day of the week According to Colliers Sierra 1998 Encyclopedia: From prehistoric times until the fifth century AD, sun worship was the most common religion. In Egypt, Aton, the sun disk, was used as a symbol of Ra, the sun god in Egyptian religion. This symbol was found in the oldest pyramids. When the Israelites came to Palestine, they found sun worshippers using the form of Baal-hammon. The latter part of the title means sun images. Sunday got its name from the day of the sun worshippers. Should Christians use Sunday as a worship day just because the sun worshippers did? Monday, The second day of the week, gets its name from the ancient observance of feast days dedicated to the moon as a goddess or a planet. Most European Calendars list a day sacred to the moon. Tuesday, the third day of the week, gets its name from Tiws day. Tiw is derived from Tyr of Tir, the son of Odin, or Woden, the Norse god of war. Wednesda
