>>The Sabbath is binding on Jewish people, not Gentiles.>>

I have to disagree based on the fact that the sabbath day was made a holy day in Genesis at creation. Not only does it predate the Jews, it predates every human being ever born except Adam. And Adam means man and Jesus said the Sabbath was made for man.

The Sabbath is a memorial to creation, God’s perfect creation. THe first full day Adam and Eve spent together was a Sabbath day, the seventh day that God hallowed.

I don’t think God waited a few thousand years to release the blessed Sabbath day to a race of people. I don’t think he hid it from all mankind who existed before our Jewish friends. And we read in Isaiah ALL MANKIND will keep the Sabbath in the new earth. Isaiah 66.

I respect your opinion but I don’t agree with it based on scripture. thank u.

“In Colossians 2:16-17, the apostle Paul declares, “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.”

Christian’s are free to worship on any day and free anyone’s judgement.

Romans 14:5 states, “One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.” These Scriptures make it clear that, for the Christian, Sabbath-keeping is a matter of spiritual freedom, not a command from God

Choose any day of the week you desire to worship or rest. Just be convinced.

Freedom to choose your day.

Have at it!

Isaiah 66

Don’t see a sabbath connection there.

“The whole earth is at rest” (somewhere in Isaiah)
