Why Do Christians Worship on Sunday? What the Bible Actually Says

The fourth commandment names the seventh day. Most churches meet on the first. There is no verse that moves the Sabbath to Sunday, so how did it happen? This video walks through the sources in order — Genesis, Exodus, the four Gospels, Acts, Paul's letters, the earliest Christian writers and one Roman law — and lets each one say exactly what it says. It does not take sides between Sunday-keeping and Sabbath-keeping traditions.
