Jesus fulfilled the Law by his death and resurrection, and replaced it by the New Covenant foretold by Jeremiah.
The Saturday Sabbath is as much a part of the New Law as circumcision, keeping kosher, and not mixing fibers in garments. I have no issue with Christians who are of Jewish heritage keeping those things as a remembrance, but they were never required of Gentile Christians. If you think otherwise, you need to re-read Galatians.

I don't need to re-read Galatians, you need to read the Bible without Catholic colored glasses. The Ten Commandments is required by ALL Christians. Jesus replaced the Old Covenant (was more works based) with the New Covenant (which is more Holy Spirit driven) to help believers fulfill the Law as He did.
Without the Law, there is no sin. God cannot allow sin to flourish in Heaven. The Law will be there as it was written on Mt. Sinai. Same Law. From Creation until eternity the Law will exist.
The ceremonial laws were wrote by Moses. They expired on the cross.
