Here is one bible verse alone, that refutes your view of a sunrise service.
"The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark.."
Seems it was still dark, and Christ was already not there.
-
We read clearly that Mary Magdalene came to anoint Christ on “the first day
of the week … at the rising of the sun” (verse 2).
She found that the stone of His sepulcher was rolled away (verse 4). Verse 9 confirms that He
had already been resurrected: “Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week .…”
Notice carefully though: It doesn’t say He “did rise” or “rose on the first day.” It says He was
risen. He had done so, as the Scriptures so clearly show, on late Saturday afternoon.
That expression—was risen—is the sole basis for the idea that Christ was resurrected on Sunday
morning—yet it says nothing of the sort! Instead, it simply confirms that Christ had
already been resurrected and emerged from the tomb by the time Mary arrived.
As for Easter and its traditional Sunday “sunrise service,” there is no biblical basis for its ob-
servance. The Catholic Encyclopedia frankly admits that “the apostolic fathers do not mention it” .
-
“In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week,
came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre”
If you study the Greek text, you learn that the word for sabbath is
actually plural! “After the sabbaths,” it should read.
Jesus crucified on a Wednesday afternoon and buried later that evening,
before sunset. The next day, Thursday, was an annual sabbath. The day
after that, was preparation day for the regular weekly Sabbath.
The reason Matthew refers to sabbaths, plural, is because there were
two sabbaths that week! When Matthew says Mary came early Sunday morning,
before dawn, after one of the sabbaths, he is referring to the weekly Sabbath.
-
Mark 16:1 says Mary Magdalene and her companions bought spices
“when the sabbath was past.” They were planning to prepare these
ointments and spices so that they might anoint the body of Jesus.
Yet Luke 23:56 says they prepared these spices and then rested on
the weekly Sabbath day. Compare these two texts carefully.
Those who hold to the Good Friday-Easter belief must conclude that these
verses are a glaring contradiction. They are not! They complement each
other perfectly, if you understand that there were two sabbaths that week.
-
encyclopedias point out, the Easter tradition for Christians began with “the words
of the ancient Nicene Creed”—not with the Bible. The tradition actually has its roots
in paganism, following customs that began long before Christ ever lived.
Antiquity of the Roman Mass
It is still redolent of that liturgy, of the days when Caesar ruled the world
and thought he could stamp out the faith of Christ, when our fathers
met together before dawn and sang a hymn to Christ as to a God.
"We also send you the good news of the settlement concerning the holy pasch, namely
that in answer to your prayers this question also has been resolved. All the brethren
in the East who have hitherto followed the Jewish practice will henceforth observe
the custom of the Romans and of yourselves and of all of us (who from ancient times)
have kept Easter together with you.[13]
A custom of the Romans, not from the bible, and not given to Jesus church.

Nobody witnessed the resurrection. When Christ met Mary the act was already done. Why can't you get that into your head. 
oh the irony
if no one witnessed it as you say (and in fact that is true) then YOU cannot equivocably stand behind your Sabbath ideals either
so maybe pull your head of wherever you have misplaced it also

the wall must have a big dent where you keep banging your head into it
stubborn is one thing, but not acknowledging your failure to comprehend you are actually saying to yourself what you think you are saying to someone else is.......DENSE
I am done here.

so let's see...according to you, the days have evolved into a cycle of light and night
so at 6 am where I live it is still dark, it is still the day before until the sun rises
so tomorrow, it will not be the 6th of August until about 6:30 when it is getting light
that's what you are saying....it was yet dark but not the Sabbath
figure it out if you can.
John 20:1 (KJV)
The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark,
unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.
according to the bible:
"And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.
Not true, even if you go by a man made clock, midnight starts a new day, not morning.
If you went by how God defines a day according to the bible,
it is the evening[night time] then morning[daytime]that makes a 24 hr period
"And the evening and the morning were the first day.
And the evening and the morning were the second day.
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
It was still dark "not light outside" when Mary saw Christ was gone already.
So before sunrise , while it was still dark outside. Sunrise only marks the start of
the daylight portion of the day, the day had started at nightfall the previous evening,
after the Sabbath had pasted.
It was not a sunrise resurrection like people suggest.
I am still suprised people can not figure how long 3 days and 3 nights last. The only
sign given by Christ disproves the tradation of good friday to sunday sunrise.
And the evening and the morning were the first day.
And the evening and the morning were the second day.
And the evening and the morning were the third day.

There is No need to determine when the Sabbath is by the the moon.
Once the 7th day was made at creation, making a 7 day week,
no need to try and figure when the Sabbath day starts except to
just know how to count to seven.
For 40 years they knew if it was a Sabbath day or not.
Jesus keep the same 7th day Sabbath as in the wilderness.
We today are certain we can keep the same 7th day Sabbath.
There has been no change in our calendar in past centuries
that has affected in any way the cycle of the week.
The origin of the 7th day Sabbath, at creation week was from God.
There is no question about which day the seventh day of the week is.
This is assured by the God given Oracles, given to us.

This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel
which spake to him in [the mount Sina], and with our fathers:
who received the lively oracles [ to give unto us ] Acts 7:38
What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
Much every way:chiefly, because that unto them
were committed [the oracles of God]. Romans 3:2
For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need
that one teach you again which be the first principles of
[the oracles of God]; and are become such as have
need of milk, and not of strong meat. Hebrews 5:12
If any man speak, let him speak as [the oracles of God];
if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth:
that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ,
to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:11

ok, but this is just you stating it. proof by 'because you say so'
every other appointed day in the Law is counted by the lunar cycle. why would one appointed day be different?
why does Exodus 16:1 tell us exactly which day of which month it is, the first time a sabbath is ever recorded as being commanded or observed by any man?

As I understand GOD started the 'count for the Sabbath. There is no scripture telling us WE have to do this every week by any other means ....but just count to 7 from rhe day GOD established it ! This is helping us to look foreward to a spiritual future and eternal life with GOD when every day will be holy in HIS holy presence...rather than harking back to the physical creation which SPIRIT does not depend on. Can you see that PH ?

He started the count for every other appointed day of the Law by the new moon. how do I decide one day is not like these other sabbaths? knowing that the first time He commands it He gives the exact day and month ((both of which are counted from the new moon)), and it happens to be aligned with all the feast sabbaths ((Exodus 16)) is of interest.
just because a human says so isn't really weight enough. it was unbelieving Jews who decided to call it every saturday in the 4th century when they abandoned their old way of keeping time in favor of adopting the Julian calendar. should we be suspicious of that?
that's what I'm asking.
and the Spirit says, Christ is the substance, the observation of a day is a shadow. it's written.

Yes, the world is full of "good" sound theology. Wesley, the Pope, Calvin, Luther. Even the serpent gave Eve a reasonable argument against honoring God with respect and obedience. And yes, by the Grace of God I have escaped their "Theology". I'm not interested in your, or some other religious man's "Philosophy". I am interested in getting my information from the Christ, and there is only one of Him. And though preachers come and go, His Word's Last forever.
I don't expect you to understand.

Religious traditions of man are more important than what the Word of God says to most folks. The Mainstream Preachers of Christ's time chose their man made doctrines and traditions over the Word's of the same God they claimed to serve, even after this same God showed them.
Rather than except what those who understood the Word showed them , like Stephen, and repent, they chose to preserve their traditions and doctrines of man and place him on permanent ignore.
This is a circle that has been repeated over and over since the serpent convinced Eve, using parts of God's Word, to trust her own vision over the instruction of God.

sorry
you use scripture to provide 'proof' of your opinions
that is not how scripture works
your entire premise of Sabbath or else is false
you can worship any day you want and every day
your biggest fault lies in condemning and heaping condemnation which the Bible EXPLICITLY says do not do ...do not judge other believers by their observance or lack of observance of days and what they eat
however, you do the complete opposite
and you have been provided with these scripture references many many times and dismiss it
so, you know, that is YOUR problem
