Me thinks you aren't actually asking this question. You are just trying to get the message out there to those whom still have an open mind to listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Can't fault you for trying, though ;-)
"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:13
Keep in mind, though, what Paul said:
"For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect." 1 Corinthians 1:17
"For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified." 1 Corinthians 2:2
"But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world." Galations 6:14

Shabbat is one of God's many gifts to humanity, but only Jews are bound by the Commandment to keep it holy. God wiped out all of His previous creation and started anew with Noah and his ark, hence the Noahide laws apply to Noah and his descendants. We were not given the 613 Commandments (which includes the "10 Commandments") until the Exodus and Revelation at Mt. Sinai when 600,000 men, plus women and children experienced Revelation.

Yes, the children of Israel are Gods people. All who came within their country were to keep the Sabbath.
Why do some say they don't keep this day anymore are they not God's people?
Exodus 31:16-17
16Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.
17It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
Perpetual is everlasting.
Where does for ever end?
To who ever said Jesus fulfilled the law: yes he did. He put it in our hearts, it was never done away with.
Jeremiah 31:33
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Hebrews 8:10
For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
Matthew 22:37-40
37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38This is the first and great commandment.
39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
For certain for God's people with his love in their heart, according to the scriptures. If they believe the Bible.
Exodus 20:11
For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

As Jesus said he came to fulfill the law and the prophets [Matthew1:22;2:23;4:14;5:17;13:35; 21:4; 25:6] then one would take into account his view about the Sabbath ; '... Jesus said to them, “ The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath (Mark 2:27).

If you could read Genesis with open eyes, you would notice that God blessed and sanctified THAT seventh day he rested on. It does NOT say he blessed and sanctified every seventh day, nor does it say God therefore rested on every seventh day. This is God's rest we are talking about here; not Israel's.
Don't be reading into Scripture what is not there.
But if you insist on your interpretation, then kindly show where anyone kept the sabbath prior to Sinai (without resorting to inference, assumption, rationalization, which are the methods of deception).

NO, the seventh day, Shabbat was given to the Jews and non Jews are not supposed to keep the Shabbat. There are 7 laws G-d gave all mankind. 613 to the Jews and 7 for all others. All we need to do is learn and do and the world will be in a sweet place.

Mark 2:27 - And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Galatians 2:16 - Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Yes, Kemo Sabe. Not only all mankind, but most of the animal kingdom as well. Only crawdads are exempt, because crawdads have to do you-know-what on Saturdays.
