False and irrelevant. Some do esteem the first day above others, and the issue is that this group sanctifies the first day of the week, being the only specific day mentioned that the Lord and early church met after His resurrection, and they simply seek the right to regular the use of their property, not enforce worship on that day.

I don’t agree. Romans 14 is not talking about the ten commandments, the seventh day Sabbath that was made holy by God before sin ever entered the world, see Genesis. The day Jesus said he made for man. The day God calls MY HOLY DAY. The day Jesus said he was LORD OF THE SABBATH. God is the Lord, so that makes the Sabbath the Lord’s day. The day John saw in Revelation 1:10.
Romans 14 is talking about things like feast days, annual sabbaths, ceremonial holy days that were written by Moses in a Book.....not God in stone. The Ten Commandments have not changed one jot or tittle.
If people only read the Bible instead of going with church tradition. Even Rome says traditionally that Nowhere, not a single text changed the Sabbath to Sunday. She made the change and it’s the mark of her authority to do that.
Today’s evangelicals are weak on this and that is why they don’t even keep Sunday any more. Protestants never did away with the holy day. They just kept the wrong day but in the right way....and God honored that.
Todays’ evangelicals have bought dispensationalism. That’s why they believe in the secret rapture and look to Israel. And when it comes to the Sabbath and the ten commandments.....they are in total confusion. They confuse the 2 covenants and even the ceremonial laws which were done away with at the cross.....with the Ten Commandments.....which are forever. God’s moral law summed up for the human race.
And the middle of the Ten Commandments is the Sabbath because it identifies who the lawgiver is.....LORD GOD CREATOR. The 4th commandment identifies the authority.....the Sabbath day is God’s badge of authority. The creator makes the rules.
