====Lutheranism==== [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] founder [[Martin Luther]] stated "I wonder exceedingly how it came to be imputed to me that I should reject the law of Ten Commandments. ...Whosoever abrogates the law must of necessity abrogate sin also."<ref>{{cite book|title=Martin Luther, Spiritual Antichrist|pages=71β2}}</ref> The Lutheran [[Augsburg Confession]], speaking of changes made by Roman Catholic pontiffs, states: "They refer to the Sabbath-day as having been changed into the Lord's Day, contrary to the Decalogue, as it seems. Neither is there any example whereof they make more than concerning the changing of the Sabbath-day. Great, say they, is the power of the Church, since it has dispensed with one of the Ten Commandments!"<ref>The [http://www.gutenberg.org/files/275/275-h/275-h.htm Augsburg Confession], 1530 AD. (Lutheran), part 2, art 7, in Philip Schaff, the Creeds of Christiandom, 4th Edition, vol 3, p64</ref> Lutheran church historian Augustus Neander<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ccel.org/ccel/neander_a|title=Augustus Neander - Christian Classics Ethereal Library - Christian Classics Ethereal Library|website=www.ccel.org}}</ref> states "The festival of Sunday, like all other festivals, was always only a human ordinance".<ref>Augustus Neander, "History of the Christian Religion and Church," Vol. 1, page 186</ref> Lutheran writer [[Marva Dawn]] keeps a whole day as Sabbath, advocating for rest during any weekly complete 24-hour period<ref>Dawn 2006, pp. 55β6.</ref> and favoring rest from Saturday sunset to Sunday sunset,<ref>Dawn 1989, Appendix.
