The Catholic Church's observance of Sunday as the Sabbath is deeply rooted in Scripture, theology, and the unfolding of salvation history through the New Covenant in Christ.
This post explores the scriptural basis for Sunday worship, its connection to the New Covenant, and addresses why Saturday, often associated with the worship of Saturn, is not regarded as the Christian day of worship.
It also reflects on the profound significance of Genesis 1 and the absence of an evening for the seventh day of creation.

It's about 50 minutes long, but this should debunk everything you wrote :)
let me know when you do. i think it gives a really good overview of how we view sabbath.
Yes, Saturday evening would be considered Sunday (1st day) after sunset. Morning and evening were the first day. If we are going by the bible. Days starting at midnight are not biblical.
Not sure how the Peter verse plays into this, if you can elaborate.
Verily I say until thee today, shalt thou be with me in paradise. Changes things right? A little comma changes the context.
Agree completely about strife and what not. We actually believe most Sunday keeping Christians will be in heaven. So if we are the synagogue of satan, welp....We're all doomed lol
Hey again, just to bring it back to this entire convo....I hope you don't get upset with me or feel any type of anger. This to me is healthy to have dialogue. I don't claim to know it all. I'm claiming what I've been given light to. And it makes sense to me. If you have felt disrespected, that has never been my intention and I do apologize if offended.
I appreciate your insight into these topics. I think it's good for Christians to talk about them.
Good to hear, and it sounds like quite a journey for sure!
Yeah I just don't want you to think I'm looking down on anything you believe in. I share a very similar upbringing, through multiple different faiths and beliefs into what I have no in faith.
It's an adventure for sure, but I'm loving every minute of it. So much to learn and to soak up.
