Rejoicing In the Sabbath:

Having said that, I'm reminded of Paul's words:

Rom 14
4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

You esteem the day, so you regard the day unto the Lord.
I do not esteem any day above another, so to the Lord also I regard it

What if Paul wasn't talking about the Sabbath, but rather Jewish feast days (holidays)? Jewish Christians observing them...Gentile Christians not.

The thing though is as long as we separate a Sabbath day from the rest of the days of the week, we are esteeming that day ABOVE the other days. So Paul's point would still count.

He also said "one man esteemeth every day ALIKE" If the sabbath is meant to be kept by distinguishing a specifc day from other days, there's no way Paul would be saying it's ok to esteem every day alike.
