You know this whole 10 Cs, Laws and Sabbath debate would be nonexistent if it were not for an interpetation of strung together Bible texts that claim the whole outcome of good and evil will come down to a day and then the claim by those with the "right" day will be vindicated and blessed while the goats on the left " will go away to eternal punishment".
Now I would propose a solution: Consider what Jesus said the "sheep" will actually be rewarded for, put down the law and working together to take on poverty. Take on the lost and the homeless. Step into the world around you and work for goodness. I would suggest that in the parable Jesus told in Matthew 25:31-46 you won't even find a hint of the Sabbath. Tht does not say there is no value in the Sabbath but in at least this story it is a nonplayer. Neither is the bulk of the law. Jesus summed up the Law by quoting the Law(Torah). Love for God and love for man. Then repeatedly though out His ministry showed that to love God is shown and lived through love for those around us.
It's not just the right day. It's not just the ten commandments. It's what the Bible says and a having a relationship with the only one who can save us from our sins. You could be the world's best philanthropist. Love all mankind and feed every hungry soul in the world. Take on all poverty and defeat it but loose your eternal life in the end. John 3:16 says it all, we must have a relationship with Christ.
God Bless
