Jesus had the authority to change the weekly Sabbath to rest in him, therefore a day of the week is irrelevant. Sunday is just as good as any other day.
Good question, thanks for asking.
the same person who decided to move Jessi's birthday so it was celebrated at the same time as winter solstice and his death day so it was celebrated during the spring equinox.
It was made by man so man can change it whenever he wants . Man has the most powerful imagination ever he can make gods and devils out of thin air . He is the greatest ! tag

They didn't. Saturday REMAINS the Sabbath, but since Christ AROSE on Sunday, Christians go to church on Sunday. Some Catholics actually go to mass every day of the week.
If you would read scripture you will find Sunday if the day of Eucharistic celebration.and it is i that runs my Catholic Church,if there are any changes to be made,I will make them.
Hears a blessing and a our father prayed just for you.Practice the holy rosary,practice makes perfect.
First to answer that question, you must look at history, when Christians first came about, after Jesus died were still Jewish. They originally observed both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday because that was the day the Jewish people had as their Sabbath day, due to the fact that SAturday is the seventh day which God had rested on. The observed Sunday because that is the day Jesus died. Also Wednesday and Friday became days of worship too, them became days of fasting and Penance. After the Council of Jerusalem, the ethnicity of the makeup of the CHurch changed. We became more Gentile then Jewish, and eventually abandoned the Jewish Sabbath.
So in answer of your question no one gave authority to us to change the day, we just slowly changed from a more Jewish orientation to a more Gentile.
This is a good question not so easy to answer. The Sabbath day of course is a day of rest and traditionally it was observed on a Saturday, that is Prue 'Constantine' after 'Constantine' the Roman Catholic Church adopted Sunday as the Sabbath day but erased sabbath from it.
The Roman Catholic Church began at this time in fact Constantine was it's author so the authority began with him in roughly 300 A.D.
What happened was and trust me this is too complex to write in short but in brief Sunday became the Sabbath during this time because he did not want anything Jewish to do with 'his' religion. So the authority came under his reign from 306 to 312 A.D.
The Roman Catholic Church is a remnant of this and so today Sunday is the traditional day for the Sabbath but you would only call it that if you were Jewish. Here in the west it is just a day of rest and a time to go to church.
Isaiah 1:13 - God begins to reveal His displeasure with the Sabbath.
Matt. 28:1; Mark 16:2,9; John 20:1,19- the Gospel writers purposely reveal Jesus' resurrection and appearances were on Sunday. This is because Sunday had now become the most important day in the life of the Church.
Acts 20:7 - this text shows the apostolic tradition of gathering together to celebrate the Eucharist on Sunday, the "first day of the week." Luke documents the principle worship was on Sunday because this was one of the departures from the Jewish form of worship.
1 Cor. 16:2 - Paul instructs the Corinthians to make contributions to the churches "on the first day of the week," which is Sunday. This is because the primary day of Christian worship is Sunday.
Col. 2:16-17 - Paul teaches that the Sabbath was only a shadow of what was fulfilled in Christ, and says "let no one pass judgment any more over a Sabbath."
2 Thess. 2:15 - we are to hold fast to apostolic tradition, whether it is oral or written. The 2,000 year-old tradition of the Church is that the apostles changed the Sabbath day of worship from Saturday to Sunday.
Heb. 4:8-9 - regarding the day of rest, if Joshua had given rest, God would not later speak of "another day," which is Sunday, the new Sabbath. Sunday is the first day of the week and the first day of the new creation brought about by our Lord's resurrection, which was on Sunday.
Heb. 7:12 - when there is a change in the priesthood, there is a change in the law as well. Because we have a new Priest and a new sacrifice, we also have a new day of worship, which is Sunday.
Rev 1:10 - John specifically points out that he witnesses the heavenly Eucharistic liturgy on Sunday, the Lord's day, the new day of rest in Christ.
Matt. 16:19; 18:18 - whatever the Church binds on earth is bound in heaven. Since the resurrection, Mass has been principally celebrated on Sunday.
Jesus Christ and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 16:17-19 states:
Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
For Christians, the Resurrection of Jesus Christ on the first day of the week (Sunday) replaces the Sabbath as the day of ceremonial observance of the Commandment to keep the Lord's Day holy.

The Catholic Church is Apostolic and therefore follows the teaching and practice of the Apostles. In the 20Th chapter of the Act of the Apostles, the church in Troas gathered on the first day of the week, Sunday.
The first Christians were Jews. They went to temple or synagogue on the Sabbath (Saturday) with fellow Jews.
Then they gathered on the first day of the week, the day on which Jesus rose from the dead (Sunday), with fellow Christians to tell stories of Jesus and share Eucharist. See Acts 20:7.
Later Gentiles joined Christianity. The Apostles, guided by the Holy Spirit, proclaimed that the Gentiles did not have to covert to Judaism to become Christians. Therefore, they only attended on Sundays and did not have to abide by Jewish dietary laws.
This biblical practice inspired by the Holy Spirit has been followed ever since.
