——>Funny thing is, Jesus said such a person would be in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Nope. The verse says that they would be CALLED least in the kingdom of heaven. Better look at verse 20.
Matthew 5:19Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
“The verse says that they would be CALLED least in the kingdom of heaven. Better look at verse 20.”
Matthew 5:19-20 NKJV
Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.
You stumble at the stumbling stone of Jesus just like the Sabbath practitioners who murdered Him. They were fixated on the fleshly applications and missed the Law written on the heart.
Christ was contrasting the least and greatest who are in the kingdom of Heaven. The scribes and Pharisees kept the Law externally but not in their hearts. These did not make it in.
The phrase you are contradicting is used elsewhere.
Matthew 11:11 NKJV
Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
No one in the kingdom of Heaven is going to be looking down into the pits of Hell and pointing out someone is the “least”. That’s a huge misunderstanding of the Matthew 5 passage. Christ came to fulfill the Law and Prophets, not destroy them.
You cannot do and teach the Sabbath because you don’t know what the Sabbath means. You have to learn what it means in order to do and teach it.
