I'm not interested in your repetition. Your premise is incorrect.
Do you honestly believe that "the Word" here refers to the ten commandments? Do you not understand that the term refers to Jesus Himself?
Already refuted.
I don't know; I'm not "most Christians". I know the history, and I know the relevant Scripture, which is more important.
Please, proofread your posts before clicking "Post reply". Spelling errors do nothing for your credibility.
This was someone else's post. Please don't conflate other people's posts and thereby make false accusations.

"So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath..." (Acts 13:42)
Q: God set only one specific day apart from the rest and blessed it, sanctified it and hallowed it. Which day would that be?
"1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2. The same was in the beginning with God." (John 1:1-2) The Ten Commandments were with us at Creation, "Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and MY laws." (Genesis 26:5) God established the 4th Commandment on the 7th day of creation. "Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy..." (Exodus 20:2-17 & Deut 5:6-21) and there are more.
The Sabbath is mentioned 58 times in the NT.
The Disciples kept the Sabbath 85 times just in the book of Acts alone.
God says that if we love him, we will keep his Commandments. (John 14:15)
(1 John 5:3) says that keeping his Commandments shouldn't be burdensome.
The NT gives many warnings about not keeping Gods Commandments.
(1 John 2:3-4) "he that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him."
(1 John 2:7) "Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning..."
(James 2:10) " For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all."
(Acts 5:29) "We must obey God rather than men."
(1 John 3:23-24) "...Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God, and God in him..."
(Romans 7:12) "Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good."
(Matt 15:9) "And in vain the worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."
The list just goes on and on. If the Commandments are part of the old law then why are we commanded to observe and obey then everywhere in the NT?
Love, God speed, Danny

God didn't change the Sabbath man did. (1) It started with the Protestant Reformation when the Gentils wanted to distance themselves from the Jews because they were being persecuted by the Romans. So, they started meeting on the first day of the week (Sunday) (2) Then the king/ emperor Constine and his belief in Sun worship. He actually made the first law for Sunday worship and condemned Sabbath keeping. (3) The Roman Catholic Church has formed and even takes credit for our Sunday Sabbath keeping in what it is today. They even state that there is no bases for Sunday observance except by their own authority.
The word refers to the Holy Scriptures AKA the Bible, and my primes is that the Ten Commandments have been with us from creation and have not been done away with and will be with us on the New Earth "... and from one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship me, saith the Lord." (Isaiah 66:23)
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2. The same was in the beginning with God." (John 1:1-2)

You talking the way you do, you need to pray for a little humility. I make no accusations. I just post what I believe to be evident and true. Take from it what you will. I know that not everyone believes the same, but at the same time I believe there are a lot of people being led astray. There are many scriptures about false teachings (2 Timothy 4:3-4)
"And in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men. (Matt 15:9)
"he that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." (1 John 2:3-4)
Love you, you are in my prayers, God speed Danny

I don't know what your problem is... but you don't have a very nice Christian attitude. I'm 65 years old and have been studying for a very long time. I am not trying to offend you or anyone else. If you do not like my post Block me. If you have something to share I'm listening, just give me scripture to back it up and we can have a nice polite open discussion.
Have a beautiful Day, Love Danny
