THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT CHANGED TO SUNDAY
 
 THE SABBATH COMMANDMENT CHANGED TO SUNDAY
 
"It was the Catholic church which by the authority of Jesus Christ has transferred this rest to Sunday in remembrance of the resurrection of our Lord.  Thus the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay in spite of themselves, to the authority of the (Catholic) church" Catholic Press, Australia, August 25,1900

The legal change from the seventh day to the first day did not occur until AD321 --over two hundred and eighty years after the death of Christ.  It was a proclamation of the Roman emperor Constantine which declared:

"On the Venerable day of the SUN let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed.  In the country, however, persons engaged in agriculture may freely and lawfully continue their pursuits; because it often happens that another day is not so suitable for grain-sowing or for vine-planting; lest by neglecting the proper moment for such operations the bounty of heaven should be lost.  Given the seventh day of March [AD 321] Crispus and Constantine being consuls each of them for the second time." - The First Sunday Law of Constantine 1, in "Codex Justinianus" translated in Phillip Schaff, History of the Christian Church, Vol 3 p.380.

Historical records show that Constantine was trying to unite the Mithra (Sun God) worshipping pagans and his new found friends, the Christians.  Those who honor  SUNday unknowingly honor the God of the Sun, not the God of creation who said:

"THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD THY GOD".  Exodus 20:8-17

Where in the Scriptures did God change it to the first day?

     and went to make war with the remnant of her seed,
            WHICH KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD,
     AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST."  Rev 12:17 (KJV)
