When is the Biblical Sabbath Day?

1 day ago
454

“Sunday is our mark of authority…The church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact.”

Letter from C.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons on October 28, 1895 —

“Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change was her act. It could not have been otherwise, as none in those days would have dreamed of doing anything, in matters spiritual, ecclesiastical and religious without her. This act is a MARK of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters.”

Father Enright C.S.S.R. of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, Mo., History of the Sabbath, p. 802. —-

“Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday…not from any directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church’s sense of its own power….People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy.”

Catholic Record, Sept. 1, 1923

“The authority of the Church could, therefore, not be bound to the authority of the Scriptures, because the Church had changed…the Sabbath into Sunday, not by the command of Christ, but by its own authority.”

Saint Catherine Catholic Church Sentinel, May 21, 1995
