Many churches and many Christians say that "We don't have to keep the Sabbath. Because it was abolished as it is the law in the old testament." However, the fourth commandment of the Ten commandments is "Keep the Sabbath day holy." Then, is there no need to keep the Ten commandments in new testament?
Let's see the first commandment.
Ex 20:1-3 "And God spoke all these words: "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. ①You shall have no other gods before me."
According to their claims, we can obey other gods because this word, the First commandment, is the law of old testament so it was abolished. Do you think that it makes sense? No at all. Whoever believes in God don't think so. Namely, we should keep the First commandment in the new testament. Then what about the second commandment or the third commandment?
Ex 20 : 4~7 "②You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. ... ③You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, ... "
Of course, we should obey these words if we believe in God. What about the other commandments?
Ex 20: 12~17 "⑤Honor your father and mother ... ⑥ You shall not murder. ⑦You shall not commit adultery. ⑧You shall not steel. ⑨You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. ⑩You shall not covet your neighbor's house ... "
Shouldn't we follow these commandments, too? Eventually, there is no commandment that we can neglect from the first commandment to the tenth commandment. Even there are many books in bookstore explaining the importance of the Ten commandments and its meaning. They think that we should keep the Ten commandments saying "The old commandments were abolished."
However, can we say that Ten commandments must be kept 'except' the four commandment?? We can not. That's certainly contradiction. If we don't have to keep the Sabbath, we don't have to keep the other 9 commandments. And If we should follow the other 9 commandments, we also should keep the Sabbath.
Therefore, the insistence that we don't have to keep the Sabbath as it was abolished is wrong insistence. According to the teachings of the Bible we must keep the Seventh day Sabbath until the end.

The Sabbath is absolute command of God we must keep to go to the kingdom of heaven. There's no excuse. Let's keep the Sabbath and receive abundant blessings what God promised us.
Why God Elohim give the Ten Commandments is that They want us to do the good deeds and everything goes well with us. With God's blessings and favors, we're living well in the last age by keeping Ten Commandments and laws. I wish all people eternal life with the forgiveness of sins.
Who said that we don't need to keep the Ten Commandments? Especially from 1st to 4th commandments are more important than others because they are the way how we can serve God!
Before the age of Holy Spirit, we didn't know if God the Mother existed or not. After Christ Ahnsahnghong taught God the Mother, now we know God the Mother. And we know God the Mother is a Creator God. Now we can keep the sabbath holy with God the Father Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother. This is perfect sabbath. I give glory and praise to Elohom.
