Why I keep the Sabbath

BobRyan said:

Indeed God, Moses, Jesus, Paul all affirm "there ReMAINS therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God" in true "what matters is keeping the Commandments of God" 1Cor 7:19 fashion.

Even the majority of pro-Sunday scholarship admits to the Gen 2:1-3 Sabbath commandment given to all mankind in Eden and applicable to the saints today. (as we saw here #1 )

So it is not just Moses reporting that God did it in Ex 20:11 doing that.

It is not just Christ in Mark 2:27 doing that.

It is not just the Saturday Sabbath Commandment keeping people on this CF thread doing that.

It is the pro-sunday scholars themselves doing it.

from the unquotable #104

You're claiming that an all-pro-team Sunday team agrees that the law was given at Eden.

Well let's take a look at the team they're up against? Shall we:

#10 Moses ....... He wrote about the Eden account and claims that noone before the Children of Israel had trecieved the ten commandment. Read Deut 4 account.
Deu 4:7
For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the LORD our God is in all things that we call upon him for?
Deu 4:8
And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

So what you're really saying is that God only blessed the first seventh day and that the subsequent seventh days were not holy and blessed... But this idea is clearly refuted in the Sabbath commandment itself:

"For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, and he rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy." - Exodus 20:11

Now, God himself rested on the seventh day, but here the day he blessed is called the Sabbath day, not one single seventh day. The Sabbath day is per definition a reoccurring day in a weekly 7 day cycle, so what you suggest is impossible.

12 And the Lord spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.
13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
14 And the Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.


Deut 4
12 Then the Lord spoke to you from the midst of the fire. You heard the sound of the words, but saw no form; there was only a voice. 13 He proclaimed to you his covenant, which he commanded you to keep: the ten words, which he wrote on two stone tablets.
