The Scriptures tell us that the Sabbath is to be observed on the seventh day, which is Saturday. However, Protestants today worship on Sunday. How did this change of the Sabbath take place? Who is responsible? Does it even matter which day we worship on?
In the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath commandment emphasizes the authority of the lawgiver—God. A change in the Sabbath means a change in authority. When we choose another Sabbath, we give the authority to another entity. God is no longer the authority. Rather, the substitute—the counterfeit—grasps this position. Another god on earth has attempted to replace the true God.
Sabbath Eternal
Isaiah 66:22-23
22 "For just as the new heavens and the new earth Which I make will endure before Me," declaresthe LORD, "So your offspring and your name will endure. 23 "And it shall be from new moon tonew moon And from sabbath to sabbath, All mankind will come to bow down before Me," says theLORD
Luke 16:17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
Sunday The Lord's Day?
Revelation 10:1 .I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
American Standard Version
Mark 2:27-28 .And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: So the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath."
The importance of the commandments
Ecclesiastes 12:13 ...'Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.'
Revelation 14:12 ...'Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.'
Revelation 22:14 ...'Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life.'
So Why Sunday
Daniel 7:24-25 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
The Catholic Church,... by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday.
