Paul says let each be persuaded.No problem with that, as we have liberty in christ, but still under the exception to meet and assemble and set apart a Day, as per author of hebrews!
“One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.” (Romans 14:5–6) (KJV 1900)
If it bothers your conscience it is sin even if it isn't sin not to set aside a day. So I need to encourage you to follow your conscience in this matter. But Paul also says:
“Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth. And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.” (Romans 14:22–23) (KJV 1900)
