Biblical Christians were almost all Jews, practicing a Christianity that was a sect of Judaism. It was in the second century that Christianity really became seperatate anddistinct from, and competitive with Judaism. And btw, the Greco-Roman calendar of that day matched the days of the week with the Jewish days of the week, i.e. the Jewish sixth day was the Greek sixth day.
1 Corinthians 16:2
Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
[KJV]
The word there is Sabbath, being interpreted as 'week'.
Either way, you interpret this verse, it is refuting your argument.
Ie, if it means, that there are two Sabbaths, a Saturday, Sabbath, and a Sunday Sabbath, it refutes your argument.
Interpreted as 'first day', non -Sabbath, it refutes your argument, [as clearly that would mean the Christians are observing Sunday, as a Sabbath.
