Even Christ kept the old Jewish Sabbath

Indeed He did.. because He had to keep the whole law perfectly ...Remember Jesus lived in the Old Covenant.. And to be our sinless Savior, Jesus had to keep the levitical laws and all the commandments...something we could never do for ourselves..

We are no longer under the Old Covenant . .

We are not saved or damned because of our law keeping.. No one will be in hell because he went to a football game instead of church ..and no one will be in heaven because he never missed mass..

Law /law/ law

This is too sophomoric. Maybe not for Bible Christians. But now we have the Living Bread of Christ in the Eucharist- all the early Christians practiced this.

Unfortunately, Bible Christians know little if anything of the first fifteen centuries of Catholicism, the ONE truth Church founded by Christ, the church of the early Fathers, the Church that infallibly assembled the books in the Bible, and the Church that carried the scared oral tradition from then until now. Perhaps, a little time spent studying the great historical origins of the Church, their practices, and custom would help.

We are no longer under the Old Covenant . .

So we can throw the 10 commandments out with the rest of the books you folks threw out of the Bible?
