SATURDAY IS THE SABBATH AS PRESCRIBED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.


CONSTANTINE IS WHO SET THE 1st Day (Sunday) AS THE "Day of rest" in the 2nd Century AD.


Early Christianity​

Jewish Christians continued to observe Shabbat but met together at the end of the day, on a Saturday evening. In the gospels, the women are described as coming to the empty tomb Greek: εις μια των σαββατων, lit. 'toward the first [day] of the Sabbath',[13] although its often translated "on the first day of the week". This is made clear in Acts 20:7 when Paul continued his message "until midnight" and a young man went to sleep and fell out of the window. It was Emperor Constantine who decreed that Christians should no longer keep the Sabbath and keep only to Sunday (the latter part of the first day of the week) calling it the "Venerable Day of the Sun"[citation needed]. Christians justify this move because it is the day on which Jesus had risen from the dead and on which the Holy Spirit had come to the apostles.[14][15] Although Christians meeting for worship on the first day of the week (Sunday for Gentiles) dates back to Acts and is historically mentioned around 115 AD, Constantine's edict was the start of many more Christians observing only Sunday and not the Sabbath.[14] Patristic writings attest that by the second century, it had become commonplace to celebrate the Eucharist in a corporate day of worship on the first day.[16] A Church Father, Eusebius, who became the bishop of Caesarea Maritima about AD 314, stated that for Christians, "the sabbath had been transferred to Sunday".[17]

The change from Saturday to Sunday occurred sometime after 135 A.D. Second, the change originated in Rome, not Jerusalem.

The earliest explicit references to the observance of Sunday as the Christian Sabbath are by Barnabas (ca. 135 A.D.) and Justin (ca. 150 A.D.).5 Both writers do mention the resurrection as a basis for Sunday observance but only as the second of two reasons, important but not predominant. These references hardly confirm the contention that the origin of Sunday, as sometimes claimed, "is to be found solely in the fact of the Resurrection of Christ on the day after the Sabbath."
Both Eusebius and Epiphanius inform us, however, that the Jerusalem Church after 70 A.D. and until Hadrian's siege of Jerusalem in 135 A.D. was composed of and administered by converted Jews, characterized as "zealous to insist on the literal observance of the Law."11 The orthodox Palestinian Jewish-Christian sect of the Nazarenes, who most scholars regard as "the very direct descendants of the primitive community"12 of Jerusalem, retained Sabbath-keeping on Saturday until the fourth century. Indeed, Saturday Sabbath-keeping was regarded as one of this Church's distinguishing characteristics.13 This implies that Saturday Sabbath observance was not only the traditional custom of the Jerusalem Church, but also of Palestinian Jewish-Christians long after 70 A.D.

The change from Sabbath to Sunday started in Rome around 135. Constantine did in fact make Sunday observance the law of the land at the request of the Church of Rome. In the 3rd century.

While Paul did preach on the first day of the week at least once in Acts any suggestion that it was his custom to worship on Sunday everyday of the week is inaccurate. Paul was getting in one last service in on Saturday night before he got up to leave the congregation and to walk across the peninsula to catch a boat with his fellow travelers. Walking across the peninsula hardly seems like a Sabbath day of rest activity. Paul is specifically mention to have observed the Sabbath more than 70 times in the New Testament.

A lot of it is accurate but some isn't. The reason the women came to the tomb towards the first day of the week was they we there to wrap Christ's body in spices something they would not do on the Sabbath so they waited till the Sabbath was over to do the task. It actually proves they were continuing to observe the Sabath.

The thing is that Christians should not accept the Church of Rome or the edict of Constantine for a reason to change the Sabbath to Sunday.

Yep Constantine moved in 330 CE but it was his authority that gave the Church of Rome its power. Constantine made his edict about Sunday on March 7th 321 CE. 9 years before he moved to Turkey.
