ANYONE who takes their Christian faith seriously does this.

We are COMMANDED to "earnestly contend for the faith once delivered to the saints "

It is vital to one's salvation to understand how the Christians of the FIRST CENTURY JERUSLEM CHURCH lived.

They observed SHABBAT, NOT SUNDAY.
PASSOVER, NOT EASTER. And so many other things

No. Sunday replaced GOD'S SABBATH in 321 AD.

When did Constantine make Sunday the day of worship?

March 7, A.D. 321

The civil law issued by Constantine on March 7, A.D. 321, was one of a series of steps by which men were led to celebrate Sunday as a day of rest after the manner in which the Sab bath was kept by the people of God

has anybody heard of the Stone Campbell movement?

As a teen I was baptized and served as a junior deacon at a Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Ohio. While the Stone Campbell movement doesn't ring a bell, the name Campbell is familiar. These days I watch on YouTube the sermons of Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) churches in Keokuk, Iowa and also in Great Bend, Kansas.

Here is what I found on Wikipedia:

The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) traces its roots to the Stone-Campbell Movement on the American frontier. The Movement is so named because it started as two distinct but similar movements rising from the Presbyterian Church, each without knowledge of the other, during the Second Great Awakening in the early 19th century. The first of these two groups, led by Barton W. Stone, began at Cane Ridge, Bourbon County, Kentucky. The group called themselves simply Christians. The second began in western Pennsylvania and Virginia (now West Virginia), led by Thomas Campbell and his son, Alexander Campbell. Because the founders wanted to abandon all denominational labels, they used the biblical names for the followers of Jesus that they found in the Bible.
