Fulfilling the law does not mean replacing one Sabbath with another. IOW, Fulfill != Abolish.

Things were easier to understand when the church was mostly Jewish people. They did not need to obey the Mosaic ritual law for their salvation, but did so for the sake of honoring God. When the church began to take on significant numbers of Gentiles, the church made it official that as a church policy, the Noahide law was sufficient for them (Acts 15).

Jhn 9:16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
