The Sabbath Question
What day did God command? What day do you keep?
The Command
"Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God."
Exodus 20:8-10
The fourth commandment doesn't say "a sabbath." It says "the sabbath," a specific day. Not the first day. The seventh day.
The Biblical Week
Sunday = First day of the week
Saturday = Seventh day of the week
This hasn't changed. Check any dictionary, any calendar history, any encyclopedia. The seven-day week cycle has remained unbroken since creation.
What Jesus Kept
"And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day."
Luke 4:16
Jesus kept the seventh-day Sabbath. It was His "custom," His regular practice. Not once in Scripture did He suggest changing it.
What the Apostles Kept
"And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the Scriptures."
Acts 17:2
Years after the resurrection, Paul still kept the Sabbath. So did all the apostles. The New Testament records over 80 Sabbath meetings, yet not one command to change to Sunday.
Who Changed It?
The change from Saturday to Sunday was made by the Roman Catholic Church centuries after Christ. They admit it openly:
"The Catholic Church...by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday."
The Catholic Mirror, September 1893
"Sunday is our mark of authority...The church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact."
Catholic Record, September 1, 1923
The Question
Option A: Keep the day God commanded (Saturday, the seventh day).
Option B: Keep the day the Roman Catholic Church changed it to (Sunday, the first day).
There is no biblical command to keep Sunday. Not one verse. The change was made by human authority, not divine.
