Quotations from our authors:
"Christians would never have come to worship on another day, apart from this freedom respecting the observance of the Sabbath, a freedom bequeathed to them by the Lord himself." Wilfrid Stott, (The Lord's Day, A Theological Guide to the Christian Day of Worship, 1972, p. 43) - Wilfrid Stott
"The Synoptics (Matt. 12:8; Mark 2:28; Luke 6:5), however, contain a similar locution, namely 'Lord of the Sabbath', a phrase used by Christ at the end of a dispute with the Pharisees over the question of legitimate Sabbath activities." - Pg. 17 - Lord's day, not included in the Gospels
"Therefore we can conclude with certainty that the event of the resurrection has determined the choice of Sunday as the day of worship of the first Christian community." - C. S. Mosna - Sunday
