Why do we keep Sunday as a holy day when the bible says the 7th day is the sabbath?

Why not wednesday, friday, etc, is it just about convenience!?
I know Jesus rose the first day of the week, but the bible doesn't say anything about changing the sabbath to a different day because of that. And even jesus and his deciples continued keeping the sabbath even after jesus was crucified. I looked into this and it seems to be a bit confusing...
please take note-saturday is the seventh day on the calendar, sunday is the first...

Also mention to others that the SABBATH was there at creation... (Genesis 2:1)... and the SABBATH is going to be worshipped in heaven (Isaiah 66:22, 23)

. WHY do Christians Worship on the First Day of the Week instead of the Seventh?
.
"By this we know that we love the children of God, when we Love GOD and Keep His Commandments."
"For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: And his commandments are NOT grievous." 1 John 5:1-3
God calls us to rest on the SEVENTH Day. Jesus worshiped on the seventh day, and the disciples did also.. I looked it up and the 1st day of the week it only mentioned 8 times in the new testament.
Actually study these today.
Matt 28:1 Mark 16:1,2 Mark 16:9 Luke 24:1
John 20:1. John 20:19. Acts 20:7. 1Cor 16:2
Acts 20:7 is the only recorded text where there was a religious meeting in the new testament. Paul preached ALL night and even unto the BREAK of day. This meeting began at SUNSET due to customs. And it ended around the next morning.
A. This is the only record of the disciples breaking bread on the first day
B. They broke bread EVERY day according to Acts 2:46
C. the account of the meeting says nothing about the Sabbath.
D. This was a SPECIAL meeting held because paul was leaving for a journey.
E. The meeting was mentioned by Luke due to the restoration of a young man that fell and was killed.
F. The meeting was a Saturday night.
1cor 16:1,2 mentions taking up a collection on the 1st day of the week but neither mentions Church or a meeting. This was not a sacred collection or even a public collection for that matter.

It is shown in Revelation 14:7 what kind of people are standing for God.. "Those who hold the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus."
Sabbath was there at the BEGINNING. Thousands of years before Jews were alive..
God blessed Four things..
Man, The Birds, The fish, And the Sabbath Day.
Jesus blessed the Sabbath day he HALLOWED it, and he SET IT APART for Holy use.
The Bible states "REMEMBER" the Sabbath in Exodus 20.. God knew we would forget..
The Sabbath was changed by the Roman emperor Constantine during the Dark ages around 321-362ad. It was changed to "honor the Venerable day of the sun" or "the SUN GOD"
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill."
"For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle(crossing of a t dotting of an I) shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.".

The question now becomes, who authorized this change of te Sabbath?
This Question is best answered by the CATHOLIC DOCTRINAL CATECHISM 3rd Ed. which states this DIRECTLY
QUESTION: "Have you any other way of proving that the Church has power to institute festivals of precept?
ANSWER: HAD SHE NOT SUCH POWER, she could not have done that in which all modern religionists agree with her, she could not have SUBSTITUED the observance of Sunday, the first day of the week, for the observance of Saturday, the Seventh Day, a change for which there is NO scriptural authority." Page 174..
Catholics even identify the CHANGING of the day of worship as a SIGN of CATHIOLIC AUTHORITY!
"The Catholic Church, . . . by virtue of her divine mission, changed the day from Saturday to Sunday."
Catholic Virginian Oct. 3, 1947, p. 9, art. "To Tell You the Truth."
God says will will worship on the Sabbath Day in Heaven. "For as the new Heavens and the new Earth, which I will make, shall remain before me saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain."
"And it shall come to pass that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the LORD." (Isaiah 66:22,23)
Let us ALL remember the Sabbath day and keep it Holy.
God set it there at creation, and God states that we will ALSO come before his throne on the Sabbath Day in Heaven.
