Part II: Questions about The Ten Commandments

Disclaimer: I believe Christ fulfilled the Sabbath and there isn’t such a thing as a “Christian Sabbath.” I’m not sure how I’d change this question if I were to use this catechism.

50. Q. What day of the week is the Christian Sabbath?
      A. The first day of the week, called the Lord’s Day.

• Acts 20:7

[Staci Eastin]

I'd skip it, too.
