Remember the Sabbath DAY to keep it holy...

THERE IS NOT ONE SCRIPTURE WHERE GENTILES WERE TAUGHT TO KEEP THE SABBATH INSTEAD OF SUNDAY.

That the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE LAW might be FULFILLED IN US who walk... after the Spirit.

So where is the New Testament command that says for Gentiles to keep Sabbath? I have asked this of the law keeping believers for many years and one has never been shown.

Command? Brother, the command stands until rescinded (that's how commands work). But consider the following verses:

Heb 8:8-10
Rom 2:13-15
Rom 2:26-29

See also Isaiah 56:6-8

The word "sabbath" appears in none of the 3 New Testament verses. Neither does it appear in the Isaiah verses. But even if they did then one would need to go back to Acts 15 and see what applies to who.

And THAT is why we dont keep Sabbath. Not one command exists that the Gentiles of the Church should.

Now if one PREFERS to keep it because he wants to for whatever reason thats fine as long as he does not tell other Gentile believers they MUST keep it!

And its the same bottom line for me as with the name issue.
