A Biblical Worldview: How Did Sunday Become the Sabbath?
How did Sunday become the Christian day of worship for Catholic and Protestant Christianity? Did Christ, the Bible, or early apostles authorize this change?
In this Biblical Worldview Bible FAQ episode, we explore the biblical origin of the Sabbath and why Saturday, not Sunday, is the true day of rest according to Scripture. We highlight the absence of biblical authority for changing the Sabbath to Sunday, tracing this shift to early Christian influences and Roman persecution. Despite the change, many early Christians, including Jesus and the apostles, continued to observe the seventh-day Saturday Sabbath.
Learn how the Protestant Reformation inherited Sunday worship from the Catholic Church and why understanding the Sabbath’s significance remains essential for modern Christians. Discover the true biblical basis for honoring God’s Sabbath day on Saturday.
