What would you say is the difference between Jesus commandments and the Father's?
Take a peak at John 13:34.

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

Where is this found in the OT?

In the Torah... Leviticus 19:18

You need to explain this ...
What exactly do you have a problem with the verse?

Delivered from means to be free of and not obligated to. If you think that means 1 can sin all they want, you got another think coming. Romans 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

2 God forbid.

15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

Even when Sabbatarians set out to worship on the Sabbath, are they truly "keeping the Sabbath?" To "keep the Sabbath" as it was required in the Old Testament under the Old Covenant would involve compliance with specific regulations (Exodus 16:23; 35:3; Leviticus 23:32; Jeremiah 17:21) that were strictly enforced.

If Sabbath day observances are still required, so would the burnt offerings which went along with them (Leviticus 19:30; 23:2-3; Numbers 28:1-10; 29:39-40; I Chronicles. 23:30-31; II Chronicles 31:2-4; Isaiah 1:13). So no kindling a fire in any of your dwellings on the sabbath (Exodus 35:3). Every man must remain in his place (no traveling) on the sabbath (Exodus 16:29). No trading (Amos 8:5). No marketing (Nehemiah 10:31; 13:15,19).

These were commanded by God to Israel (Exodus 35:1).

If the seventh day Sabbath is still in affect, then why do not the Sabbatarians seek to obey ALL that the LORD commanded? How can a person keep a certain law when he keeps only part of it?

If the Sabbath day laws were still in effect today, then according to Exodus 31:12-18; 35:1-3; and Numbers 15:32-36, anyone who profaned the Sabbath was put to death and any person who does any work on it, that person shall be cut off from his people.

Who is going to enforce that? The Jewish synagogue? The Seventh day Adventist church? The Government? Since we do not live under a theocratic state as ancient Israel did under the Old Covenant, no Sabbatarian can live consistently under these Mosaic regulations.

Interesting. If Jews were not to leave their homes on the Sabbath, why do modern Jews go to the synagogue Friday night, Sabbath morning, and Sabbath late afternoon?

Hmmmmm

1 John 3:23 And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

Commandments 1-4
Commandments 6-10

So, yes.

No. It is impossible to keep the Ten Commandments. Furthermore, we are not under the law, but under grace. We are to love God with all we have and our neighbor as ourselves as Jesus commanded.

Ask yourself, what was the purpose of the law? Why did Jesus give the new commandment instead of simply saying to keep the 10? Has anyone in the Bible ever successfully kept them other than Jesus?

Worthy of response!
The problem is that you're not able to respond to them, so any excuse will do.
That was a very mean response by you, BTW.
I responded to each of your post, in 362, 363, 364. And, sometimes people write things which don't need to be responded to fore one reason or another. If so, I let that one be.

Yes they are! Yeshua said that Sabbath was made for MAN...He did not say Jews. WHY don't you harm another person?
Who was Jesus talking to? Also why did God wait so long to reveal your idea of the verse? Exodus 31:13, 17 says the sabbath was for Jews as a sign. It wasn't for the world. Moses also says in Deuteronomy
5:1 And Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them.

2 The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.

3 The Lord made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.

Then that is what He would have said, but He didn't. It would have been VERY easy for Him to say Jews. You do know that both the Sabbath and marriage were instituted BEFORE the fall? The Sabbath was made for ADAM...

The Sabbath was to be used as a sign for Jews...it was not invented or originated at Sinai...

You very obviously know absolutely nothing regarding Torah observance. No one, not even Yeshua could follow ALL 613.
Then there's no Savior and we have no hope. This also makes Luke 24:44 a lie. If you say no because some laws are specific to women or priests, you'd be in error.
