What does Paul say in Romans 13 about esteeming one day above another?
In Romans 13, Paul instructs believers not to esteem one day above another but to regard every day alike, because in this age of grace all days are equal for the believer, who is to serve God every day, not setting Sunday above the other six days.
Les explains that the book says nothing about practicing a system of worship in this age of grace, because Christ nailed all that to His cross and we are now free. Paul in Romans 13 says, 'Don't regard one day higher than another, but regard every day alike.' Les notes he has nothing against Sunday, but even Sunday is not taught in Scripture as a special holy day above the other six days. The book doesn't teach setting Sunday up as a holy day; every day is alike for the believer. We are to serve God just as much Monday through Friday as Saturday and Sunday. This all has been nailed to His cross. Les then connects this to Galatians 4, where Paul wrote because Judaizers were convincing Gentiles they had to keep the Law for salvation. Paul admonished them not to fall under the temptation to become legalists, which is no different today.
