So you believe that Rome teaches contrary to the Bible?

No. The Catholic Church does not teach anything that is *contrary* to the Bible.

Sunday is founded, not on Scripture, but on tradition, and is distinctly a Catholic institution. As there is no Scripture for the transfer of the day of rest from the last to the first day of the week, Protestants ought to keep their Sabbath on Saturday and thus leave Catholics in full possession of Sunday." Catholic Record, Sept. 17, 1893

As you are well aware....I'm am no defender of Martin Luther. This is probably his biggest mistake....not reestablishing the Sabbath as the Protestant Day of worship in his theology. If he would have done that, the break with Catholicism would have been legitimate and a move back to the original "Church of God" of the New Testament would have been accomplished. As it turns out, the Protestant Churches are nothing more than Catholicism "lite".
