So I guess according to your understanding JESUS only kept Gods/His Fathers CARNAL commandment re the sabbath and discard it after His death ? what happened to Him being 'the same yesterday, today and forever ? and the scriptures pointing to a future sabbath ? It's ok to cut the tree of life from it's roots or the branches from the tree and STILL produce holy fruit ?
Which Jesus are you talking about...the one who starts from the foundation as we also should, or the one who teaches you nothing but rest and idleness ? Jesus warns of false Christs who deceive.
Scripture says 'first comes the physical THEN the spiritual. DON'T reject your simple beginning, it's your foundation in God.

If you look closely at the New Testament you will see that the Lord Jesus didn't follow a carnal keeping of a Sabbath. The Jews didn't like that, of course.
John 5:16-18
[FONT="]16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.[/FONT]
[FONT="]17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.[/FONT]
[FONT="]18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
The Lord Jesus kept the real law in Spirit and Truth. He wasn't worried about the carnal understanding of the carnal commandment.
That is our simple beginning. The release from the carnal understanding and carnal following of Gods Perfect Law by coming to the Lord Jesus to receive Real Rest.
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
