Back in 1975, “the Lord’s day” was called Sunday. The LC bragged about not being legalistic. Yet after newbies “caught the LC vision” the guys cut their hair short and began wearing white shirts and skinny ties just like the Mormon missionaries. The women wore the sisters attire...and no makeup with one or two exceptions who wore makeup to work.
I think it was 1977 when it was announced through the MOTA of course we were no longer going to use the word Sunday. I wondered why we were leaving the names of the remainder week the same since they were all named after pagan gods.
No other Christian denomination and non denomination call Sunday “the Lord’s day”. When it was announced back in the day, l refused to call Sunday “the Lord’s day”. I knew the control factor was setting in strongly. Just as in the movie Chernobyl no one questioned the command. I know why we were not going to call Sunday, Sunday anymore. But l was not buying it.
I have never addressed Sunday the Lord’s day. I won’t unless God the Holy Spirit tells me to.
