Sabbath Abolished, Sunday Commanded:

“The Bible says, ‘Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day.’ The Catholic Church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath day, and command you to keep the first day of the week. And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic Church.” — Father T. Enright C.S.S.R. of the Redemptoral College, Kansas City, Mo., June 1893.

And the final nail in the coffin of Protestant Sunday keepers who mock Sabbath keepers:

The Catholic Church is Above the Bible in Authority:

Now in the matter of Sabbath observance the Protestant rule of Faith is utterly unable to explain the substitution of the Christian Sunday for the Jewish Saturday. It has been changed. The Bible still teaches that the Sabbath or Saturday should be kept holy. There is no authority in the New Testament for the substitution of Sunday for Saturday. Surely it is an important matter. It stands there in the Bible as one of the Ten Commandments of God. There is no authority in the Bible for abrogating this Commandment, or for transferring its observance to another day of the week.

For Catholics it is not the slightest difficulty. “All power is given Me in heaven and on earth; as the Father sent Me so I also send you,” said our Divine Lord in giving His tremendous commission to His Apostles. “He that heareth you heareth Me.” We have in the authoritative voice of the Church the voice of Christ Himself. The Church is above the Bible; and this transference of Sabbath observance to Sunday is proof positive of that fact. Deny the authority of the Church and you have no adequate or reasonable explanation or justification for the substitution of Sunday for Saturday in the Third - Protestant Fourth - Commandment of God.

So in order to clarify....these that you quote from, did they hang on a Cross to become a curse in your place? Did they sanctify you because you “claim” to keep the Sabbath?

What about the times you failed to uphold the standards in the sect you place your faith in?

Salvation by works requires perfection to uphold the entirety of the Law without exception.

If you place yourself in this catagory then congratulations, you are now the second person in human history to have accomplished that.

Matthew 11:29-30
King James Version
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
