Keeping the Sabbath holy is our rest.
Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness did not succeed in reaching that law.

For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the
likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, so that the requirement
of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.



Romans 3:21-25a

Romans 8:1-2; 5:57 + 58b
Before you rush to try to deceive us saying you keep the law, we know those who say such things are liars.

John 8:36 plus Romans 8:2 If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death.
:)
Thanks for the Scripture verse.

Only those who are in Jesus Christ keep the Sabbath holy.

Did Paul contradict himself when he said;
"Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law." (Romans 3:31)

This verse clearly states that faith in Christ does not nullify the law but rather upholds it.

did Paul's verse you have in your panel, romans 10:4, contradict Romans 3:31 ?
it simply means the law of works is uphold by the Law of Faith.

Why would Christians need to keep the weekly sabbath day when it's the shadow and Jesus Christ is the substance? (Colossians 2:16-17)
Thats not the truth....
It has been shown that there is a difference between the the laws of ordinance and moral laws.

You refuse to see it and your statement is not true.

Col 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;....
Col 2:17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Understanding which law is vital....

Heb 8:4-5
4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: 5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
Heb 10:1-6
1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. 2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. 3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. 4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. 5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: 6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.

Eph 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

Notice the law of ordinances are abolished....

ABOLISHED.

Heb 9:1-2
1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary. 2 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
Heb 9:9-10
9 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience; 10 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

It is clear that a law was nailed to the cross. And that law was the shadow laws...

No verse states that the 10 commandments are a shadow law.

The new Testament states that we should keep the 10 commandments.

Rom 3:31 KJV Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Jas 2:8-12
8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. 10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. 11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. 12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
Mat 5:17-18
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Make sure you understand the difference...

These verses clearly show us that the moral law dose not change ...

You must not think too highly of the sinless, perfect life that Jesus Christ lived or His death, burial and resurrection, which provided eternal life for mankind. Your absolute obsession with the sabbath day and therefore turning it into an idol has reached the point of nauseam.
All the laws are important. It is the sabbath that is attached the most. Justification by faith alone requires us to believe in the perfect life of Jesus.
But we also believe in loving Jesus...

Do you love Jesus?
1Jn 5:2-3
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
1Jn 5:18 KJV We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

Is it wrong to love God and keep His commandments...? Which includes the sabbath day. ?
