Sabbeth Keepers

No law has been done away with. They have been fulfilled by Jesus, and now the LAW OF THE SPIRIT is the one that guides us. THAT is the elephant in the room that you are trying very hard to ignore.

There is not one verse in all the Bible where Jesus said "the sabbath is abolished, repealed, done away with" nor did any apostle teach likewise.

Neither is there a scripture that says "KEEP THE SABBATH HOLY AS UNTO THE LORD" anywhere found in the NT either... lol

THAT IS THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM YOU AND CERTAIN OTHERS CONTINUOUSLY AVOID.

The law was fulfilled, completed, abolished, and CHANGED at Calvary.

Ephesians 2:15-16 "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, and that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby."

Jesus not only fulfilled the law, but abolished it, and then was permanently CHANGED into a new man, so making PEACE.
