Then Church leaders began to devalue the Seventh Day Sabbath from then ten commandments for the more popular Roman Sunday. Some Christians thought you should fast on the Sabbath and then feast on Sunday, Thats what the pagans did fasted on Saturday and feasted on Sunday. Not the Jews though, The Jews fasted on Friday and feasted on Sabbath. So if youre fasting on one day and feasting on the next you can just guess which day becomes the more popular day. And Christ is resurrected on a Sunday and it is a very natural tendency to mock that and celebrate that. Theres another reason and that is the influence of sun worship and when sun worship begins to creep into the Church, Constantine can use that to lead to the exaltation of Sunday the day of the Sun as being the day that people should worship on. This gradual departure from Gods law of the centurys that has been gotten so widely accepted, That most people are shock to learn the Sunday keep has no foundation in the Bible. In A.D 313 Constantine published the EDITTO DI MILANO changing Sunday to the day of rest. The emperor Sunday law had nothing to do with Christianity is was actually to honor the main Roman sun god called helios or apollo. The emperor Constantine became a convert to Christianity and also because he remained parshall to the sun god the emperor Constantine moved the day of worship from Saturday the Sabbath which had be traditional in Judaism, to Sunday to the day of the sun god and ever scene Christian people have held there day on Sunday instead of Saturday. This clear from another edict from Constantine give in A.D 321 when the emperor ordered On the venerable day of the sun let magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed. Notice the editto uses the word sun s-u-n. Its also recorded that Constantine the great made and law for the whole for the whole emperor that Sunday should be kept as a day of rest. Obviously this change did not infiltrade the Church over night. History tells us that for decades the Seventh Day Sabbath together with Sunday were both observed as holy days. The very early Church clearly is still worshiping on the Jewish Saturday in the times of the Apostles but by the mid to late third century that has largely been abandoned or is in the process of being abandoned by the early fourth century in many parts of the Roman world Christians are generally worshiping on Sunday. A lot of Christians during this period time would observe the Sabbath and then on Sunday they would have a service remembering the Resurrection and then they go back to there normal work. Its during the time of Constantine in which the idea of transferring the law of the Sabbath to Sunday is first expressed. Centurys earlier the Prophet Daniel had foretold a religious power would arise that would think to change times and laws. Within the ten commandments theres only one law thats also a time.....the Sabbath.
