And he shall speak great words against the most High,
and shall wear out the saints of the most High,
and think to change times and laws:
Daniel 7:25
"Who Do We Reverence and Pay Homage to by Keeping Sunday Holy?
From this we may understand how great is the authority of the church in interpreting or explaining to us the commandments of God – an authority which is acknowledged by the universal practice of the whole Christian world, even of those sects which profess to take the holy Scriptures as their sole rule of faith, since they observe as the day of rest not the seventh day of the week demanded by the Bible, but the first day. Which we know is to be kept holy, only from the tradition and teaching of the Catholic church." (Henry Gibson, Catechism Made Easy, #2, 9th edition, vol. 1, pp. 341-342.)
"It was the Catholic church which...has transferred this rest to the Sunday in remembrance of the resurrection of our Lord. Thus the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the [Roman Catholic] church." (Monsignor Louis Segur, Plain Talk About the Protestantism of Today, 1868, p. 213.)
"Protestants...accept Sunday rather than Saturday as the day for
public worship after the Catholic Church made the change...But the Protestant mind does not seem to realize that...in observing the Sunday, they are accepting the authority of the spokesman for the church, the Pope." (Our Sunday Visitor, February 15, 1950.)
"The [Roman Catholic] Church changed the observance of the Sabbath to Sunday by right of the divine, infallible authority given to her by her founder, Jesus Christ. The Protestant claiming the Bible to be the only guide of faith, has no warrant for observing Sunday." (The Catholic Universe Bulletin, August 14, 1942, p. 4.)
