Don't kill, don't steal, don't covet. Cleary, those commands still apply. But what about the 4th commandment ... honor the Sabbath? Is that still applicable ... even though you no longer go to church on the Sabbath?

“ Great Sermon! ” Jesus reaffirmed every one of the 10 Commandments, except the commandment on the Sabbath. Yes, he observed it, but he was the fulfillment of the law at the Crucifixion. The Sabbath was for the Jews specifically, read Exodus. Paul himself stated that some people esteem one day, others no day. Lastly, if you are thinking you are justifying yourself by the “Law”, then you have to live according to ALL the laws, not just the ones you want to. Do you even know what the rules regarding observing the Sabbath included? It’s not just saying “I go to church on Saturday”. If you live by the law, you will be judged by the law. We are justified by grace, not the law.
Galatians 4:21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
Colossaians 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: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

“ sabbath ” Hi John. I usually enjoy listening to your messages, but this one scared me. You listed all the pharisees extra rules that Jesus did away with, he never did away with the Sabbath because it was written in stone for a perpetual covenant. God does not change.

You have taught me a lot about studying my bible and I thank God for that. This is the student giving the teacher gentle reproof. 'In vain do you worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men' All the commandments apply today or none of them.
