Jesus said also that to inherit eternal life we must BELIEVE on the One whom the father has sent. Salvation does not come by keeping the law. It comes by believing in what Jesus did on the cross for us. He fulfilled the law for us.
Jesus was the greatest law preacher to those who are trying to "gain" righteousness by keeping that law.
Jesus was also the greatest grace preacher for those who knew to depend on HIm alone for salvation
Don't take someone else's medicine!
be blessed!

So one question. As long as we believe then we are saved so then once saved shouldn't we than take the ten commandments as well as the NT and use them to help us to love and teach love? And to those saying qe don't need them. Well why wouldn't you use them to begin with? If they're considered mosaic law and tossed out. Isn't it still a good idea to not murder, steal etc?

Also I'm referring to as is JF. ROMANS 13:9
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

I actually thought that I was clear in my answer 
I said we should keep the laws of Yeshua but they are nothing new. They were in the law before.

I am sure therefore, as you lay great stress on a saturday Sabbath, you lay equal stress on the other two mentioned being followed in your life

We show God we love Him by spending time with Him. By praising Him daily, reading His Word, sharing the Gospel with others out of Love, not denying His Son, giving to the poor out of Love; these all show God we love Him. You already said you have no clue what the Sabbath even is. Have you read Exodus yet? How can you fight for something without knowing what it was for?
GOD's not impressed with our attempts to show him that we love him. He's impressed by our believing his love for us. In fact, that is defined as the love of GOD.
The law to observe the sabbath was given to remind Israel that their sanctification came from GOD, not their own efforts. We have this remembrance every moment of every day through the indwelling spirit. So the law to observe the sabbath is obsolete.

I don't tell anybody when I fast and me and my wife have given many people food that visited our house... so what about it?
I do think we must look at the context of verses and encourage each other rather than try to discourage each other.
If JFS want to keep the Sabbath because she wants to grow closer to God who are you to judge her? Maybe by doing this she can learn more from God. Why discourage her. She is not claiming Salvation by doing it.
The people on this website is so judgemental it is scary... (and I don't aim this at you James)
