First, the political context — which shouldn’t be ignored — because politics is secular by nature, and this is why, as Christians, we should pay close attention to how our preachers, priests, and pastors behave when faced with tyranny.
Because in case you haven’t read about my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, He basically gave the middle finger to both the leadership of His Jewish community and a huge middle finger to the Roman Empire — both of whom had to acknowledge and adapt to His power after He died and resurrected.
That’s the God I serve — the mighty and glorious Jesus Christ, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
Below is what the tyrannical and arrogant Roman Empire did along with its minions in the Catholic Church.
A reminder: after these propaganda campaigns, the decline of the Roman Empire became more and more apparent.
Christ is King!
The change of the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday was not a single event but a gradual process, initiated by Roman Emperor Constantine’s decree in 321 AD mandating Sunday as a day of rest for the Roman Empire. This was a political move to unite diverse religious groups, but Christian leaders also promoted the shift, influencing Constantine and later establishing the practice through councils and other decrees over the following centuries.
Centralization of Power: Who Changed the Sabbath Day to Sunday — and Why You Should Praise God Every Chance You Get
Exodus 20:8–11 (KJV)
8. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10. But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11. For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Who Changed the Sabbath Day to Sunday?
The Catholic Church, which later became a central point of contention during the Protestant Reformation, had held a near-monopoly on Christianity for centuries. As with any centralized power, corruption and abuse eventually followed. The Church began creating unnecessary divisions through its religious narratives and political authority.
Most Christians should understand that Christianity itself isn’t a religion in the traditional sense—it’s a form of self-governance through faith and conscience. That’s the gift and the challenge of a voluntary belief system rooted in our understanding of God through Christ.
I can’t force you to follow Christ’s commandments, and Christ Himself does not force anyone. His commandments do not include keeping either the Sabbath or Sunday as legalistic burdens, but rather as opportunities for worship and rest in Him.
Genesis 2:2–3 (KJV)
“And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.”
Genesis 2:2–3 is the first mention of the Sabbath, and it aligns perfectly with how Christ later describes it.
Mark 2:27–28 — The Sabbath Was Made for Man
“And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.”
When you read this, you begin to notice the difference between Jesus and Moses, and this is one of the reasons many of us as Christians emphasize the Trinity — the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
Mark 2:27–28 aligns more with Genesis 2:2–3 (the first Book of Moses, called Genesis) than with Exodus 20:8–11, where Moses delivers the Ten Commandments. Moses later establishes several statutes because he was leading a people who had been slaves for 400 years and was trying to rehabilitate them as a nation.
This is one reason we, as Christians, love our Jewish family—because Judaism is not our culture, but our faith shares its roots. We have the privilege of observing Christ without having to maintain the full weight of the Judean cultural system.
If you look at Israel’s history, you’ll see they had many prophets and frequent internal struggles. So as Christians, we should humble ourselves in understanding their difficulty in accepting Christ as the Son of God.
For us, Moses is a prophet who paved the way. When you read about what he endured, you can’t help but feel compassion for him—but you also notice the development of Judeo-Christian values. No value system, even in your own heart, can be formed in a single day.
Being a Christian can be a tough pill to swallow because our form of spiritual governance leaves the door wide open for people to challenge our God. You don’t truly understand Christ if you genuinely believe in censorship. Yet in many Jewish and secular circles, censorship is still justified.
On this blog, we often remind readers that Christians should stop bullying Israel. The truth is, we don’t really know what Israel would look like today without outside interference from Christian secularists and political powers. Once Israel regained independence, Western nations should have allowed it to rediscover itself based on its Judeo-beliefs.
If you truly believe in Christ, you should allow their truth to reign in Israel so that we, as believers, can observe and learn more about Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
The Decline of Centralized Religion
Today, the Catholic Church is in decline across many Western countries—especially in the United States and Europe—because as God reveals Himself more clearly through Scripture, the centralized model of religion is falling apart.
In earlier centuries, illiteracy was widespread. In regions where illiteracy remained high, the Catholic Church tended to hold the most power. Now that literacy is spreading, even Protestant churches are struggling to keep up—because people are going directly to the source: the Bible—rather than relying on potentially false preachers or institutional intermediaries.
Open debate about Christ brings us closer to Him. If you’re using Christ’s name to enrich yourself or your organization, that model is dying.
Remember—Christ was a carpenter, and the Apostle Paul was a tentmaker—both real trades and honest work. You can still become successful as a tentmaker in 2025, and if you’re a carpenter, you’re likely a rich man unless you’re oppressed by a tyrannical secular government.
Freedom and Repentance
As Christians, the foundation of everything we believe is freedom. You’ll notice I rarely rant about a woman’s right to choose. If a woman chooses to end a pregnancy, it’s undeniably a sin—an evil one—but even then, she can repent.
Many murderers have repented and found forgiveness through Christ. If repentance is genuine, God will forgive. When we write, it’s never to condemn—it’s to present truth and context that may have been lost through ignorance or censorship.
The Broken Tablets and the Restored Covenant
Moses literally broke the stone tablets containing the Ten Commandments, and the story is deeply symbolic. It shows both his righteous anger at Israel’s sin and the spiritual truth that the people had already broken God’s covenant before even receiving it.
This is one of the reasons Christians call Christ the Son of God—because Christ restored the Sabbath to its original meaning: not a rule of bondage, but a divine invitation to rest and worship.
Consider making Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior today.
