1. Since GOD rested on the seventh day in Gen 2:3, did He impose the Sabbath on Adam and Eve? Yes

2. Did Noah and his family observe the Sabbath? How about Shem? Yes, Shem's a maybe

3. Did Abraham, or Isaac, or Jacob, or Joseph observe the Sabbath? Yes

4. Why do Sabbatarians still practice only parts of the Mosaic Old Covenant and reject the Sunday worship of the covenant of Jesus Christ? We follow Gods Law. The Ten Commandments are for all mankind eternally. And He said unto them "The Sabbath was made for man and not man for the Sabbath" The Sabbath was for man not Jews alone.

5. Show me the verse(s) in the New Testament where anyone commands Gentiles (those who are not a Jew) to observe the Jewish Sabbath? John 14:15 Do you love Jesus?

Less than 1% of all Christianity believes as you do. 1 person + God is always a majority.

My questions for you are these. What day did Jesus our example keep? Why did Jesus say " But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter , neither on the Sabbath day" for an event that happened decades after His death if the Sabbath was no longer valid? The Bible supports the Sabbath as THE day to worship God on earth as it will be in Heaven.

If you read the whole article to the end. The importance of the sabbath is a day of rest then what day of the week. Christ is talking about a day of rest not what day of the week. Reread the whole article. Also the authority given the church.

"The day of rest for Christianity is defined as Sunday, the Lords day, because Jesus Christ was resurrected on Sunday. The word "Sabbath" is not a synonym for Saturday, just because it is practiced on Saturday"

. THIS ALSO FROM ARTICLE.

". Love of GOD includes keeping a "day of rest" which is the real meaning of Sabbath. Not one word did Jesus say that this day would continue to be a Saturday."
