God isn't honored by his children arguing and fighting over days and dates on a calendar. Nor is God honored by fighting over various cultural customs.

Kind of like how you are arguing over days and dates, too.
If I make an appointment to meet with you on a certain specified day, you wouldn't have a problem with me showing up a couple days early or a couple days late, right? I mean, it's the thought that counts, right?
