When you see Paul visiting the Synagogues in Acts you will notice it was for the purpose of preaching Yeshua as the Messiah. I looked the places up years ago and thats what I discovered.
Also the Synagogue was the center of Jewish life so it would not be unusual for any Jew to go there.
My point is that these same Jewish APOSTLES concluded that Gentiles were not under the law of Moses. Its obvious from James statement that there were thousands of Messianic Jews who WERE still observing the law.

What I dislike about the first sentence now is that you pretty much have to add "Commandment abolished" after it?
Reflections of the Church that's coming in paragraph 3...
I'd agree that the Apostles witnessed Gentiles not keeping the Law--such is Grace. We are further informed that this discussion will arise, and its importance should not overshadow Grace. Amen. I would like to suggest that if you take the trouble to observe the Sabbath anyway, just a little test, like a year, or a month, that your life will change, and you prolly will not go back.
