The sabbath is part of the covenant between God and the Jews. Christians have no obligation to observe it.

The commandment "remember the Sabbath day" was part of the Old Testament laws. These laws were "fulfilled" by Christ when he established the New Testament.
We are not required to keep the Sabbath day anymore.
The New Testament teaches that we today are under no part of the Old Testament (Romans 7:1-7; 2 Corinthians 3:1-18; Galatians 3:24,25; Ephesians 2:13-16; Colossians 2:14; Hebrews 7:12; 8:7).
The Bible also clearly teaches that the “Law of God” and the “Law of Moses” refer to the same law (Nehemiah 8:1, 18; Ezra 7:6, 12; Luke 2:22,23). When Jesus did away with the Law of Moses, He did away with the Old Testament Law of God for the two are the same. The Bible also clearly teaches that Christians are to worship on Sunday, the first day of the week (Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:1,2; Revelation 1:10).

Christians do not need to remember the Sabbath. Torah (the first five books of the Bible) states that the Sabbath is a sign between God and the People of Israel. Christians are gentiles. Therefore they are not bound by this commandment.

There are so many blessing that come from following the teachings and laws of Christ. Embracing the Sabbath is one of the commandments, and I can promise you that you will see the blessings that come from holding to the commandment of Honoring the Sabbath.

Because EVERY Christian should embrace the Sabbath, regardless of age.
This is one of the 10 Commandments, not the 10 suggestions.

It has nothing to do w/ teenagers. The Bible says honor the sabbath day and keep it holy-all people.

Why should any Christians embrace the sabbath? God did not command if of Christians.
And if one thinks they have to keep one condition of the o.t. law, then they are obligated to keep all of it, and that one has fallen from grace.
