Unfortunately, Paul is referring to the then abolished Mosaic law of meat offering/drink offerings/yearly Jewish sabbaths. We know this b/c just after the Lord finishes commanding Israel to observe the 7 yearly Feast day Jewish sabbaths in Leviticus 23:1-36, He clearly indicates that these 7 Jewish Feast day sabbaths are "besides the Sabbaths of the Lord thy God" (Leviticus 23:37-38) which are the Fourth commandments Sabbaths that God has written upon the hearts of New Covenant Christians.

New Covenant Christians love Jesus and keep the Ten Commandments He has written on their hearts (John 14:15; Hebrews 8:10; 2 Corinthians 3:1-3). Only a child of Satan would claim to love Jesus but refuse to cease from the sin that made necessary the humiliation, suffering, and crucifixion of heaven's Greatest Gift.
Well if God is so important. why pick "ONE" day to honor God your best, but the 6 other days God does not get the best.
However, I already posted above. The Sabbath is an Ordianance. How is physically keeping an abolished ordiance helping out anything.
If you do keep an ordiance to honor God, then why God only get Honor 1 day a week?
It could be though, you have some issue with memory. I understand. Good to keep a day unto the Lord Holy To remember all he has done, if you forget things that easy like Israel did.
Deu 5:15 kjva And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
If that is the case, I hope your mind gets stronger and stronger and your not like Israel, who had to constantly be reminded of God.
The Laws of God should now be written on your heart, the New covenant changed things.
If you are older or have issues remembering then go ahead and keep the Sabbath. Whatever helps you.
You are confusing the Moral Law given by the hand of God which "stands fast forever and ever" and is still binding today (Psalm 111:7-8; James 2:11-12), which goes back to the Garden of Eden, with the Mosaic Law which was given by the hand of Moses and "was added because of transgressions until the Seed, Jesus, should come" (Galatians 3:16-19), which was added to the Moral law at Mount Sinai and abolished at the Cross. The abolishing of legalized slavery did not abolish laws against murder or theft; neither does the abolishing of mandated circumcision and annual Jewish Feast sabbaths (Leviticus 23:7,21,24,32,35,36) which are "beside the Sabbaths of the Lord (Leviticus 23:38)" do away with the Fourth commandment, or any of the other nine, which is written on the hearts of New Covenant Christians.
If the Sixth Commandment against killing one's self is no more, then what's to stop believers from going to be with Jesus in Paradise? And if there is no law, then how is it possible that in the day of Judgment there will be unconverted "workers of lawlessness"?
Every person professing Christianity knows full well that no inhabitant of God's universe will ever be free to violate the Ten Commandments, yet b/c of the Sabbath commandment, faithless Christians will cunningly devise fables to convince themselves otherwise b/c they are more concerned with keeping what their employers, family, friends, etc. think of them rather than what God thinks of them.

You have just dodged the fact that You give God your best and full attention one day, but God is not good enough for you the other 6 days. That is what keeping some Sabbath is, to put God on the mind of a Backward people.
We keep the Royal law of love. The 10 commandments are wrapped up in that law. If you try to keep the ordiances of the law, then you fail. No man could do it, excpet Jesus.
Reliegiously confused people don't like things simple. I understand.
One more time.
The Sabbath was to pick one day a week, where you don't work, and your honor God. You give Glory to God.
Isa 58:13 kjva If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words:
Now I already posted to you the Sabbath is keeping of ordiances which according to Paul are gone. You ignored my blantant scriptures. Most confused doctrines have to ignore scripture. I understand, else it would not be confused.
So your picking, One Day a week to honor God, not doing your own things or own pleasure.
ONE DAY A WEEK. THAT IS THE SABBATH.
That means, 6 days of the week your not giving God your best, and doing your own thing.
If you esteem one day a Week to honor God, then God can't possibly be getting your best the other 6 days.
That means your a weak Spirit filled believer, only giving your best effort ONE DAY a week.
Othewise, you would treat every day the same, the Lord getting your best everyday.
For non-spirit filled people, like Israel, if they can do their best for God 1 day a week consistantly, then that is pretty amazing.
If the Sabbath day is to honor God, and you keep a Sabbath day, for the Lord, then you better be making the other 6 days a Sabbath day also, and give God your best, not doing your own thing.
Otherwise, your Christian walk is shameful.
God gets all 7 of my days, I do what He says do, I give what He says give. He is my first when I wake up, and when I go to bed. If we are the children of God, we are led by the Spirit of God and that should be all 7 days of the week.
For Isreal they were only required to not do their own thing "ONE" day a week.
I just posted the scripture above.
Wake up. You need to raise the bar.
Friend, it is you who are complicating things. The commandment simply says we are to work 6 days and rest on the Sabbath. Simple concept.
God writes His Ten Commandments on the hearts of all who partake of the New Covenant (Hebrews 8:10; 2 Corinthians 3:3) and their love for Jesus compels them to continual day by day, moment by moment surrender to Him (John 14:15).
If you're not willing to partake of the New Covenant and cease from the worship of false gods, idolatry, blasphemy, Sabbath breaking, dishonoring your parents, murder, cheating on your spouse, stealing, lying, or coveting, I would ask you to consider the only other alternative: "I never knew you. Depart from Me, ye that work iniquity." Matt 7:23

Ya, got to stop that murdering, lying and cheating on the wife. Thanks for reminding me. I just forget not to do those things sometimes. My bad.
Hating our brother is murder. Lusting after internet porn is adultery. Whatever receives our first attention and affection is our god.
Jesus gives total and complete victory over all these and much more to those who "seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness" for the promise to us is "to them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory, honor, and immortality: eternal life (is granted)." Romans 2:6-8

You are at it again saying that we are murderers, cheaters, liars etc... just because we don't agree with you on the Sabbath. You have any proof we are doing these things before you call us out on them? You are a viper with a tainted tongue and should look at yourself before you start knocking others. You sound just like the Pharisees. You are so self righteous it is disgusting and I can't believe I have kept a dialogue with you this long. You are on my ignore list and will remain there until you start to grow up.
Friend, I judge no one, as evidenced by my use of the word "if"; that is the work of the Holy Spirit. I simply repeat the words of Jesus that hatred is murder, lust is adultery, and if God is not our master, another god will be. "He that doeth righteousness is righteous" (1 John 3:7) because Jesus lives out His obedient life in the heart of him who is helpless to obey. "He that committeth sin is of the devil" (1 John 3:8) because the devil has power over him.

I have enjoyed reading through this thread, Phoneman777 thank you for sharing and explaining you defiantly got through to me with your "old" news. Keep posting this over and over. I heard/read somewhere that the devil will seek to change times, this was probably referring to the sabbath day.
Also it mentions here in the New Testament about the sabbath and the end times: Matt 24:20.
But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: (Matthew 24:20 KJV)
Bless
