Keep the Sabbath day, established by our Creator at mankind's creation, HOLY? If not, why not?
I have just asked 9 questions in a row, based on the 10 Commandments from Exodus 20. All most all the answers, in one way or another, say that they are following those 9 commands.

Biblically speaking, the penalty for working on the Sabath (Saturday) is death. does God speak of execution, or eternal death?

Of course Christians will tell you they're following the Commandments. Why shouldn't they? It's something we should strive to do every day. We're not perfect at it but unless we're hypocrites we break these commands less than the rest of the world, and the world is a better place because of it.
Person below: That was an Old Testament law. Before Jesus came the only way to deal with a sinner was death, for "the wages of sin is death". We're under a new covenant now, thank God.

Sadly in the past I have tried many times to catch up, you know mow, pull weeds, what ever, I have found that every time I have done this, in the end it goes very bad. My mower will brake a belt, I will pull the wrong plant, If I tried to paint, I spilled it, and even when nothing went wrong with in a day or so, something would brake that should not, and in my Bible reading I would come across, seems like no matter where I was reading but I would come across a verse about doing "unnecessary work on the Sabbath" I know work hard to make sure I don't do any unnecessary work on Sunday, I also will not allow my kids to do so, as in mowing or trimming the yard.

Jesus came to remove the law, so this no longer applies. However, when I do not have to work I do try to keep Sunday as 'my focus on God day', which really is what the sabbath was all about.

10. Does it matter how many. You ask the same question several times. Everyone sins. Even Christians. But we are forgiven. Does not give us a permit to sin but if we fall we have Jesus to catch us. What ya got? By the way some christians drink, look at porn, steal, lie, speed, go to walmart...etc.

My goodness someone has an obsession going on this morning.
Just HOW do you expect ANYONE here to be able to answer "how many Christians?" for ANY "question"??
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to ask "do you, as a Christian"?
Or perhaps that wouldn't satisfy that little itch?

No.
Why? Because while the Law was important for it's time it was merely "a tutor leading to Christ". It's why Jesus could say that he came to fulfill the law.
