Talk:Lord's Day

The concept of the Lord's Day being Sunday comes from Gnosticism

According to Ministry Magazine:

“

Serapion, bishop of Antioch (A.D. 190- 203), is the earliest writer known to mention The Gospel According to Peter. He penned a letter "to refute the falsehoods which that Gospel contained, on account of some in the parish of Rhossus who had been led astray by it into heterodox notions" (Eusebius, bishop of Caesarea, Ecclesiastical History, book 6, chap. 12, in NPNF, second series, vol. 1, p. 258. Origen says it was used by some men in the third century to support a certain doctrine (Commentary on the Gospel According to Matthew, book 10, chap. 17, in ANF, vol. 9, p. 424). Eusebius, the church historian, wrote that it was "cited by heretics," and it was so completely out of accord with true orthodoxy as "to be cast aside as absurd and impious." He says also that it and the other spurious works circulated then under Peter's name "we know have not been universally accepted, because no ecclesiastical writer, ancient or modern, has made use of testimonies drawn from them" (Ecclesiastical History, book 3, chap. 3, in NPNF, second series, vol. 1, pp. 133, 134). If the currently published fragment is a part of The Gospel According to Peter that Serapion, Origen, and Eusebius have mentioned, then it is the earliest known professedly Christian work in which Sunday is called "the Lord's day." This fragment is said to contain twenty-nine additions to the facts recorded in the four authentic Gospels in the New Testament scriptures, and in some instances these additions strikingly contradict what is said in the four genuine Gospels. We know of no modern Christian scholar who accepts it as a genuine work of Peter or who cites it as proof that Sunday observance was instituted by Christ and His apostles.
