After the Ascension of Christ into heaven, the apostles would meet together in what we call “home churches.” They celebrated an Agape meal and then the Eucharist on Sunday in memory of Christ’s Resurrection.

Yes, they attended the synagogue on Saturday for awhile, but then they were expelled from the synagogue.

So I guess they just gave up on that Sabbath thing because it was too hard?? Wasn't that like one of the Ten Commandments? The one that says Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy? I guess Jesus was just fooling with them when He said "If ye love Me, keep my Commandments"? Funny how that eucharist thing every Sunday wasn't really specified in the Bible.

January 18, 1562, Gaspar del Fosso, the archbishop of Reggio, presented the same argument that Eck had used against Luther.

He said, “The Protestants claim to stand upon the written word only. They profess to hold the Scripture alone as the standard point of faith. They justify their revolt by the plea that the church has apostatised from the written word and follows tradition. Now the Protestants’ claim that they stand upon the written word only is not true. Their profession of holding the Scripture alone as the standard of faith is false!”

His proof of this statement lay in the fact that the written word explicitly enjoins the observance of the seventh day as the Sabbath. However, Protestants did not observe the seventh day, as they should if they held the Scriptures alone as their standard. Instead, they rejected it.

Del Fosso went on to argue that “[Protestants] not only reject the observance of the Sabbath enjoined in the written word, but they have adopted and do practice the observance of Sunday, for which they have only the tradition of the church.”

The words of God were entrusted to the Jews (Romans 3:2) NOT the Catholics. Why would you disagree with what the Holy Spirit inspired Paul to write?
