Question on Sabbath Change
Historical Account★★★★Question.—What Bible authority is there for changing the Sabbath from the seventh to the first day of the week? Who gave the Pope the authority to change a command of God?
Answer.—I f the Bible is the only guide for the Christian then the Seventh-day Adventist is right in observing the Saturday with the Jew...Is it not strange that those who make the Bible their only teacher, should inconsistently follow in this matter the tradition of the Catholic church?
Bertrand Conway, The Question Box, 1915 ed., 179.
The point
This item presents a Catholic source acknowledging that the change of the Sabbath to Sunday came from the Catholic Church, not the Bible, used to argue for seventh-day observance.
