I find it quite interesting that God would take the time to emphasize "REMEMBER the Sabbath day"... when He issued the instructions regarding His Holy day...
It almost seems prophetic.
As if He KNEW that many would try to make His people FORGET or (change) His Holy Day...
He was up to something for sure

This makes even more sense when you look at Daniel 7:25 where Daniel describes the Anti-Messiah as someone who will come to specifically do 4 things."(1)He will speak out against the Most High and (2)wear down the saints of the Highest One, and (3)he will intend to make alterations in times and in (4)Law; and they will be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time."
I find it most interesting that such is issued to a select group of people know as Israelites. It seems to be implied it was given to the whle world.I find it quite interesting that God would take the time to emphasize "REMEMBER the Sabbath day"... when He issued the instructions regarding His Holy day...

No sir it does not. It only proves your position is opposed to the NC found recorded in the NT.1. How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
2. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night.
3. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers.
4. The wicked are not so, but they are like chaff which the wind drives away.
5. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6. For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.
Psalm 1 single-handedly disproves your above post.
You mean the same select group that the New Covenant is made with? Almost EVERYTHING that was given to "Christians" was given through Israel...down to the Messiah!I find it most interesting that such is issued to a select group of people know as Israelites.

Is this above bolded passage not what you are doing? It does seem that you are saying those disagreeing with you are not the saints of the Highest One.
No sir it does not. It only proves your position is opposed to the NC found recorded in the NT.

As a Christian, I believe that keeping God's holy law does not save a person from their sins. Only the blood of Christ can do that. But I also believe that the blood of Christ does not give us a license to insult God's mercy by violating the Ten Commandments.
If, to our amazement, the government declared that the Ten Commandments would be taught in public schools, I don't think any Christian would say, "No, we're not under the law, we don't need the Ten Commandments." However, this is the exact attitude that Christians have whenever the fourth commandment is brought up. If only nine of the Ten Commandments were taught in public schools, would that make Christians more comfortable?
And yes, I'm aware of all the verses that are used to argue against the Sabbath. But whether we like it or not, the Sabbath is still a commandment of God, and the Bible does actually teach that those who trample the blood of Christ will not enter heaven. I think to be on the safe side we should honor the Sabbath commandment, just as we would honor the other none commandments.
Not from me me eheheLemme see ... folks said

I think you missed the part about the law being perfect, liberty, and love

I see, but since you're a man and so are your interlocutors (speaking generically) how can anybody ever know what it's crystal clear words mean if we're all doing the "man's usage of the sacred text" thing?

By allowing the Spirit to lead them. Sidenote - whenever I attribute confusion or uncertainty to man, I do so implying that the words spoken are devoid of the Spirit's power.
Not to mention HOLY, Spiritual and the very Word of God.
I however totally understand their POV...I used to see that Law of God as a burdensome, heavy yoke that was just terrible and sooo hard to bear.
God has to open the eyes...He is the one that lifts the veil, in His time
The law of Christ (1Co 9:21; Gal 6:2) which is love (Gal 5:6, 14; Jas 2:8; Ro 13:8-10), with no curse,For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified (Romans 2:13).
Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city (Revelation 22:14).
Your interlocutors have the Spirit of God, do they not, or is it just you that enjoys that privilege?

I would like to think so. Considering that the work of the Spirit takes time, one can't say that profession of error is evidence of the absence of the Spirit. What one can do however is determine if the teaching being espoused is or isn't from the Spirit by comparing it to what the scripture says.
There's a reason why I've been bringing up Isa 8:20 so often
