He also claimed Jesus and the Apostles were not Sabbatarians (or otherwise they would be doomed to hell presumably). It's little things like that is holding me back.
That assertion seems to me to be unbelievable. What evidence can you present ?

Jesus wasn’t a Sabbatarian — . Jesus is the fulfillment of the Sabbath rest in the sense that only he can actualize the “rest” the Sabbath symbolized.
Christ perfectly observed the Sabbath as he did all of the old covenant. However, after he enunciated a new covenant at the Last Supper, his emphasis seems to be on Sundays. Sunday was the day he was found to have been resurrected, and his first two appearance to the twelve disciples were on the following two Sundays (Jn. 20:19, 20:26). Again, five weeks later—on Sunday—the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles.
I am courtesy pinging Cronos as he/his words are being discussed.

the Apostles were NOT Sabbatarians - they worshipped the Lord on the Lord’s Day, the FIRST day of the week.
