Not to mention Ex 20:7 - do not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain.

A commandment never quoted at all in the NT.

Indeed and it continued "EVERY Sabbath" according to Acts 18:4 instead of "one or two Sabbaths then all Christians meet on EVERY week-day-1" as some have much-imagined the text should have said.

They were babes who hadn't yet learned that Sabbath was a shadow.

They continued like babes yes, .

No text in Acts 18 saying "they continued like babes because even after hearing the gospel EVERY Sabbath they still could not get what the OC was"...

Please be serious -- "any ol excuse will do" is not a compelling objective solution

In Acts 13:14-16, 42-44 we see that in just ONE or TWO Sabbaths they were being convinced of the Gospel - especially the gentiles!

No wonder Is 66:23 says that for all eternity when the wicked have all perished "From Sabbath to Sabbath shall ALL MANKIND come before Me to worship" - (hint - that is certainly - "after the cross")

Your blinders-on solution requires ignoring a great deal of scripture all for the sake of man-made tradition.

Give me the Bible "instead".

Were the Apostles some of those weak in the faith? They never willingly continued to break YHWH'S commandments - and if they did, YHWH'S WORD explained what they did to repent.

The arguments presented to break YHWH'S commands all come from man's traditions , or worse.
There is no indication in SCRIPTURE anywhere, that any ecclesia should continue to willingly break YHWH'S commands.

We are taught not to take his grace in vain, which means the same

1. you are "quoting you"
2. I am not arguing against keeping the 3rd commandment - Ex 20:7

Is it TORAH also,
or not until Y'SHUA in the NEW TESTAMENT,
YHWH wants the WHOLE HEART - not 'split' devotion ?
"no one can serve 2 masters" he will love one and hate the other, or hate one and love the other. Can't do both !

A Christian who is properly instructed, can learn from OT, but doesn't need Moses Law. A Christian would do well, commandment wise, having only an NT. The psalms are lovely, I have learned to wait on God, from David, but I never once learned to follow Moses.

You bob, are the one who is clearly misrepresenting scripture. These people were still infants in Christ, and many were not even Christians yet. They are hardly an example of a mature Church. Admit the truth Bob. Your argument about acts 17 and 18 is weak.

JOHN 5:
37b-47 “Now you have never at any time heard what he says or seen what he is like. Nor do you really believe his word in your hearts, for you refuse to believe the man who he has sent. You pore over the scriptures for you imagine that you will find eternal life in them. And all the time they give their testimony to me! But you are not willing to come to me to have real life! Men’s approval or disapproval means nothing to me, but I can tell that you have none of the love of God in your hearts. I have come in the name of my Father and you will not accept me. Yet if another man comes simply in his own name, you will accept him. How on earth can you believe while you are for ever looking for each other’s approval and not for the glory that comes from the one God? There is no need for you to think that I have come to accuse you before the Father. You already have an accuser—Moses, in whom you put all your confidence! For if you really believed Moses, you would be bound to believe me; for is was about me that he wrote. But if you do not believe what he wrote, how can you believe what I say”?

That was spoken to unbelieving Pharisees. Gentiles in the NC didn't need Moses at all. The apostles taught them Gods command and it wasn't Moses Law either. They were taught about love, faith, and hope in Christ

Y'SHUA said "MOSES spoke of ME(Y'SHUA)"

YHWH SPOKE thru MOSES.

To reject who YHWH and Y'SHUA both speak of so highly,
as
Y'SHUA says, is to reject Y'SHUA.
I don reject Moses, but I wasn't commanded to follow him either. I follow Christ and his apostles. Why do you think God sent apostles?

Is 66:23 "From new moon to new moon AND FROM Sabbath to Sabbath shall all MANKIND come before Me to worship"

Why don't we let the Apostle Paul give his viewpoint of this Old Testament prophecy?

Col 2:16  Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 
Col 2:17  Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. 


There is no doubt that a time is coming when all will come to bow down to Him.


Rom_14:11  For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Php_2:10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;


A Judaiser finds the word "Sabbath" in the Old Testament and does everything in his power to use it to make his doctrine work.
No surprises here...
