Ahhh, one of my pet peeves ;-)  From what Bro Van Norman wrote, I
know he understands the difference, but just to get it out of my
system (please indulge me here, if you will):

	SUNDAY IS NOT THE "CHRISTIAN SABBATH"

The Sabbath day always has been and always will be the 7th day, Saturday.
The Christian Sabbath is, of course, Jesus Christ, as a couple of people
have pointed out in good fashion.

I've never heard that about the Nicean Council implementing the "Sunday
Sabbath" before.  I thought it was a much more recent invention, though
the Christian community has seemingly always met on Sunday (the Lord's
Day).  I must admit it's not something I've thoroughly researched before.
