Christians who exercise faith in Christ's ransom do not try to gain salvation by engaging in activity that may gain them God's favour. Instead they rest from their own works of justification as it says at Hebrews 4:9-11 "As it is, however, there still remains for God's people a rest like God's resting on the seventh day. For those who receive that rest which God promised will rest from their own work, just as God rested from his. Let us, then, do our best to receive that rest, so that no one of us will fail as they did because of their lack of faith" (Good News Bible)
So for Christians every day of the week is set aside to exercise faith.
The Sabbath occurs every week.
Sabbath is the resting day in a week. Judaism holds Sabbath on Saturday. They don't do anything on that day. Christianity changed Sabbath to Sunday to remember Jesus' resurrection, and that's why they have church services on Sunday.
The Jewish Sabbath is from Friday sundown until Saturday after twilight. That is the seventh day of the Jewish week. See also:More about the Jewish Shabbat.

No, the Sabbath is not the only day of the week named in the Bible. Other days of the week are mentioned in the Bible, such as the first day of the week (Sunday) which is referenced in relation to Jesus' resurrection.
I always believed most religions had their own Sabbath.
The phrase "sabbath day"comes from the Bible. Sabbath means "to rest" and the sabbath day was instituted by God during creation week when He created the seventh day and made it a holy day for rest. God also included the sabbath day into the ten commandments.

Sunday was not and is the sabbath, so they did whatever they would normally do any other day of the week.

The seventh day of the week is Saturday, as is shown on nearly every calendar made. (If you're confused about the Sabbath... yes, that's Saturday, and by Jewish tradition it begins at sunset of the previous day (Friday). Any references to Sunday as the Sabbath are ignoring tradition and linguistics. The early church referred to Sunday as "the Lord's day" while still recognizing that it was not, in fact, the Sabbath.)
The previous day was the Sabbath, so they couldn't do any work that day.
No, there is no special day of the week in Buddhism.
The real sabbath day according to the Bible is the seventh day of the week (our Saturday). God blessed the seventh day of creation and set it apart for holy use. And He told us to remember and keep the sabbath day holy in the ten commandments. Many Christians believe the sabbath is now Sunday, but the Bible nowhere speaks of any change in the sabbath day.
