I'm afraid it does not say what you read as scripture...it says PEOPLE/persons ESTEEM one day better than another...that means it stems from HUMAN/carnal reasoning....it's not GOD-given (that one day is better than another, just human thinking) and that is what christianity has based their religion on. GOD's word is that the Sabbath day is Holy...no other ! Think about it !!!
it does say "each should be fully convinced in their own mind" & not, 'you must convince everyone to esteem one day above others & judge those who do not'
in fact the entire chapter of Romans 14 is a context of not judging one another over these things, and that both the one who eats and the one who does not eat do so unto the Lord

So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God.

(Romans 14:22)
Jesus said, "I will draw all men unto me." (Joh 12:32b) and as Father and Son are One, they failed, (as you admit), because they were following the god of the Jews and not the Father who is God over all. As Jesus said, "If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him." (Joh 14:7)
Try to understand the God of the Jews is NOT the God of Dan 7:13.
"I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him."
As Micah 5:2 puts it 700 years before Jesus was born:

Hebrews 4:7 says He appointed another day and called it 'today'
this is true no matter which day of the week you read it. this is not a passage you must only read on saturdays, because it says the appointed day is "today." it is not false on thursdays -- tho thursday is today: today, if you hear His voice
His works have been finished since the creation of the world.
(Hebrews 4:3)
(Hebrews 4:3)
the author is talking about the real rest of God, not the shadow of it, and from this talk of rest, he begins writing about the glory of Christ, which outshines everything else.
The Law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming -- not the realities themselves.
(Hebrews 10:1)
Christ has come, and will come again -- the stumbling stone, the foundation & cornerstone, He is the day i will rejoice in: He separated light from darkness and called the light "day" -- He Himself(Hebrews 10:1)

Just read the chapter. The direction of it is different than what you think.
The chapter says that we can serve God various ways, that weak faith follows rules and considers some things holy/clean while other things considers common/unholy, that strong faith is free and that both ways are equal. We should not judge people, therefore, regarding how/when they serve God.

the issue isn't what a group of psychologists say.
I was evaluating the idea, expressed above by a different user, that we "must learn the culture and ways of the times that a direction was written in to learn what the teaching is"
so, what do you say? If a person wants to keep the law should they keep it as written, according to the letter, or should they take into account the intent of the directive in light of modern science, culture, and Technology?

And ask, why were the tablets God inscribed broken? And ask, why & how did the priests in the Law desecrate the sabbath without guilt? And ask, how did circumcision take precedence over sabbath if the 8th day fell on a 7th? And ask, how is it that God appointed another day, and why did He call it "today"?
