20. When and by what church council was the observance of the seventh day forbidden, and Sunday observance enjoined ?

Answer

"The seventh-day Sabbath was . . . solemnized by Christ, the apostles, and primitive Christians, till the
Laodicean Council did, in a manner, quite abolish the observation of it. . . . The Council of Laodicea [AD.
364] . . . first settled the observation of the Lord's day."-Prynne's "Dissertation on the Lord's Day Sabbath,"
