Lighten up, Francis..... I am not mocking God..... what a maroon....

This sounds very much like he is saying this only to the Israelites. See the word "therefore".... I was never a slave in Egypt, who God saved.... sounds like THOSE people were the ones that were commanded to keep the Sabbath day. You, me, and everyone else in this discussion were saved from...

and you know this.... how?

Yep.... it's Saturn's Day worship, instead.... the agricultural god.... :LOL:

How was it observed?

According to you guys' insistence on strict observation of the sabbath, yes..... which, standing alone, proves you all are misguided.... and wrong.

This gets old....

Are you deliberately being obtuse, simply to provoke? You get angry when others "put words in your mouth" about 7DA but then turn right around and do it to someone else....

Which means that he was not strictly keeping the sabbath.... no work allowed.

Out of context, much? You completele (deliberately?) missed the point of Jesus saying that. He was saying that to refute the notion that he and his followers were sinning, by working on the sabbath. He basically said, this day is not as sacrosanct as you Pharisees are trying to make it...

Starting with Acts, pretty much everyone in the New Testament.

Please show me those scriptures, that say we need to follow those guidelines in order to be "properly" keeping the sabbath holy. You already stated (correctly) that there were two different "laws".... God's laws (10 Commandments), and Mosaic law. And you said that Mosaic law was over... we...

Thank you for giving me your opinion on how to keep a sabbath holy. Other people do not do all of those things, yet they still keep it holy, in their own way. The point being, obviously, that there is NOT a set of rules or instructions about how to keep the sabbath holy..... and when you try...

Ok

Jesus disagrees with that in Matthew 5..... "you have heard it said..... but 'I' say to you....." He gave us better "laws" because they dealt with what was in our hearts, not simply what we did to obey the law. And even there, they are not really "laws", but principles that we try to adapt...

So, again, I ask you.... what does keeping the sabbath day holy mean to you, as a Christian? All GOD said to us was to remember it and keep it holy.... How do YOU do that, as a Christian?

Where is the verse that says that animal sacrifices end? If sacrifices were commanded in order to "keep the law", then they are on the same level as all the many rules about how to "keep" the sabbath. Jesus said in Matthew 5 that he didn't come to abolish the law, but to FULFILL it. Which...

so, what does "keep it holy" mean to you, as a Christian?

I believe that remembering the Sabbath and keeping it holy are things we should do. Holy means "set apart"..... HOW we do that is up to the individual and their own conscience.

What did Jesus say? Did he say, these two commands are all you need to do.... well, except to keep the Sabbath..... ?
