Shabbat in the Jewish calendar

Question:

All Jewish holidays depend on Jewish Lunar calendar. Why only Shabbat we are celebrating according to the Christian Solar calendar on Christian Saturday?

Answer:

The Jewish calendar is a lunisolar calendar based both on the sun and moon. Our Shabbos is not based on the Christian Saturday but a continuation from the first Shabbos since the  creation of the universe. On the contrary our Shabbos came well before the Christians eventuated.
