We are to know scripture is scripture, and not to say that God breathed only in a man made division of scripture. That is defying God.
Christ made a difference, but that difference is spelled out for us in scripture, verse by verse and line by line. We are sent to scripture by God.
When you say that God does not want us to keep the Sabbath, you are saying you do not believe God.

hmmm interesting now go back and read your answer in post 156 and compare it to these verses and tell me what is our thoughts.
Ezekiel 18
King James Version (KJV)
4Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
5But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
6And hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour's wife, neither hath come near to a menstruous woman,
7 And hath not oppressed any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath spoiled none by violence, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the naked with a garment;
8 He that hath not given forth upon usury, neither hath taken any increase, that hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true judgment between man and man,
9 Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord God.
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
25 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel; Is not my way equal? are not your ways unequal?

Thanks Chris for responding ! 
I have some questions for you friend Okay so as I was reading where you stand, it sounds to me and please correct me if im wrong, but it seems you are talking about two different things? The question at hand, in my mind, is , is the Moral law of God still binding on us today, but it seems you are talking about the law being a way of salvation,.? is this correct or am I totally missing the mark here? lol

The Law is by no means a way to salvation, seeing that the Law has death as its reward. Jesus is the Way and we are told to follow Him. As I follow Him, He shows me God's ways and those ways are fulfilled through love.
I ask myself, "Do I follow Him because I fear that death from the Law or do I follow Him because He is the Deliverer from that condemnation. I put my confidence in Him because His reward is everlasting life.
I repeat, if I follow the Law as a means of my righteousness (justification from that death) then I have no one to save me from Hades, seeing that it would take Christ to die once again to deliver me from what He already came to deliver me from.

I am saying all 9 of the 10 commandments are clearly repeated in the new testament. The command to keep the Sabbath is not found in the New Testament at all. The old covenant was never intended to be permanent and are mere shadows of things to come.
When Christ died the curtain in the temple was ripped.

Yes, all souls belong to Him. No one will escape judgment....and the soul who sins, it shall die....and the soul who believes in the Son of God, it shall live....No one will escape judgment....
We are to be 'equable' (KJV: perfect) as our Father in Heaven is 'equable'. He who does not love, has neither the Father or the Son. Love cause no harm (evil) and thus, the one who practices love is lawful and right before God. Let our righteousness come from faith which has love as its Law.
Love causes no harm. We have been liberated from works by the Lord of Sabbath. Love fulfills the will of God. But, the one who seeks to live by the Law will only receive that which God has attached to it as its reward: death.
Love will cause no harm, even towards God.
Let the sinner turn from his ways and repent. Those who are in Christ do not have sin imputed to their account, seeing that they are under Grace and not Law.
His ways are indeed fair. He has given to us a new Covenant and a new Law: Love. Love causes no harm (do no evil).

This is so clear, and it tells so well what scripture tells us. Yet I read that if you understand one part of what this clear repeating of scripture says, it means that it cancels out another part! It is as if demons get into people's minds.
The law is love in action. If you follow love, you follow law, it is all one. Cfultz explains this so well!
Salvation is something only God can do, man can't do it. That is truth. That truth stands on its own, it has nothing to do with law. Why some people connect the two only the demons can know.

honestly this is all it is, no extras or ands it's just receive christ and your salvation, experience the new birth, experience the change in your life because of the spirit of christ and surrender to the cross and spirit daily, nothing else but that God is what makes us righteous not follow anything we must yield to the righteousness of christ instead of trying to be self righteous, your not suppose to try not to covet or try not to steal your suppose have the love in you that prevents you from doing those things automactically not by trying and when we surrender to the cross daily we filfull the love of God which enables us to walk the right path

Just as a sidenote from sideburns lol, I would encourage a bible study be done in the book of romans about the Law, paul explains it very well why the Law is here and what its intended purpose is, I mean to me it even answers the question that seems to cause so much confusion please brothers and sisters we must follow God's word and study to show ourself approved God bless you all as we continue to seek after truth and call sin by its rightful name!
God bless you all as we continue to seek after truth and call sin by its rightful name!hmmm such fancy speech still thou did not understand this verse hmmm it is in ezekiel hmm the soul that sinneth shall die
and we Know that the whole chapter is for us today yet many say God way is not equal and to sleep with menstrous women is alright hmm claimig if i have faith to do it it is not sin hmmm it is like saying i have faith to murder and that is not sin because it is of FAITH HMMMM well take care its is either we hear or forbear
just a thought do you know when probation is close this will be pronounce
[h=3]Revelation 22:11[/h]King James Version (KJV)
11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Who is a Just man or a righteous man hmmm Ezikiel spells it out

Yes, the 9 commandments are a part of the law but so was the command to keep the sabbath. Christ's death changed everything. We are not under the law but we are under grace.
At Christ's death the curtain separating the Holy of Hollies was ripped in two. The presence of God left the temple and now we are the temple of God. Christ was the last sacrifice God accepted and there is no need to sacrifice animals. Circumcision of the foreskin is now a circumcised heart (ie the new man). Christ's death changed the law.

As you wish.
Love does not sin (cause offense). The one who loves will cause no harm (evil) to his neighbor.
They who offend and repent not shall die.
They who are in Christ are not under the Law.
The one who loves is justified before God and has a right standing before Him.
Those who seek their righteousness by their flesh, has not the right standing before God.
