I think the guy needs further bible studies.

Christians are not required to observe a weekly sabbath.

Christians are under “the law of the Christ,” which does not include keeping the Sabbath.

(Colossians 2:16, 17)
“Therefore, do not let anyone judge you about what you eat and drink or about the observance of a festival or of the new moon or of a sabbath.

17 Those things are a shadow of the things to come, but the reality belongs to the Christ.”

God never required other people to observe a sabbath rest.

In addition, even the Jews were “released from the Law” of Moses, including the Ten Commandments, by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

(Romans 7:6, 7)
“But now we have been released from the Law, because we have died to that which restrained us, in order that we might be slaves in a new sense by the spirit and not in the old sense by the written code.”

7 “What, then, are we to say? Is the Law sin?”

“Certainly not! Really, I would not have come to know sin had it not been for the Law.”

(Romans 10:4)
“For Christ is the end of the Law, so that everyone exercising faith may have righteousness.

(Galatians 3:24, 25)
“So the Law became our guardian leading to Christ,a so that we might be declared righteous through faith.b 25 But now that the faith has arrived, we are no longer under a guardian.”

Rather than adhere to the Law of Moses, Christians follow the superior law of love.

(Hebrews 8:13)
“In his saying “a new covenant, he has made the former one obsolete.

Now what is obsolete and growing old is near to vanishing away.”
