On the contrary the comments you make are written in books for judgment day! make no mistakes about it. Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
Revelation 20:12 (NKJV):
"And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books."
Matthew 18:20 (NKJV):
"For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them."

How can you say the Law is in your heart since you do not believe what Jesus said and follow him. Jesus was teaching the commandments that includes the sabbath, a sign of this covenant. Jesus did keep the sabbath. His death did not abolished the commandments but were the beginning of the new covenant. Some of us here do have these laws in their hearts but not you, no not you. If you had these laws in your heart you would Honour GOD on the sabbath day like he asks us do to and mostly because you do love him above else, this is the greatest commandment, to love your GOD with all your soul, mind and heart. This also means to Obey him as we all should.
Peace.
Peace.

Indeed, but apparently only I know what I pointed out, which is now on my website under Controversial Issues (thanks to my favorite Judaizer for your help in hashing it out :^). It was:
7. Jesus declared he is Lord of the Sabbath and it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath in MT 12:1-12.
8. Jesus healed a crippled woman on the Sabbath in LK 13:10-16.
If Jesus thought keeping the Sabbath was an important law, he would have affirmed it on these two occasions, but he did not specifically nullify it either, which jibes/harmonizes perfectly with Paul.
9. Paul taught that a person may rest on the Sabbath or not in CL 2:16, GL 4:9-11 & RM 14:5.
10. HB encourages Christians to enter God’s Sabbath rest by persevering faith in 3:7-4:11.

The priesthood under the Law has always come from the tribe of levi(Aaron) BUT under Gods Promise, the Priest must come in the order of Melchizedek. As it says: The Lord has sworn and will Not change His mind: You are Priest forever. Ps 110:4(Heb7;21)
You are a Priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.
It is because the Law made Nothing Perfect, Heb 7:19
so, the law has to change Heb 7;12

There are two laws, the priesthood laws under the Levites was what was written in the book of the law, not the Ten Commandments.
Deut 31:24 So it was, when Moses had completed writing the words of this law in a book, when they were finished, 25 that Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying: 26 “Take this Book of the Law, and put it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there as a witness against you;
This is what was written and put beside the ark. Not what was inside the ark God’s eternal Ten Commandments.
Hebrews 7 is addressing the law of priesthood because the law said all priests needed to come from Levi because the Levites were the only ones who were faithful while Moses went up to get the Ten Commandments. Jesus coming from the tribe of Judah caused an issue under the law so the necessity of the aw had to be changed, which is what Hebrews 7 is all about.
There is a law that not a jot or tittle can be changed and a law that was temporary. We already see in the law of Moses the priesthood changed, animal sacrifices changed which means that is not the unchangeable law Jesus was referring to. It is obviously the Ten Commandments written by the finger of God, the laws Jesus quoted from when He said not a jot or tittle can be changed Mat 5:18 because He promised He would not alter His Words Psa 89:34. At some point we need to start believing God and what He taught, everything else really is only a snare that I fear will not end well according to the Words of Jesus Christ Mat 7:21-23 Rev 22:14-15
We don’t have to agree, thats okay, but our time here is short and once Jesus comes back all decisions are final Rev 22:11

The purpose is not for us to break the least of these commandments and place our faith in what Jesus taught and lived Mat 5:19-30 John 15:10 1 John 3:24 1 John 2:6 because Jesus wants to free us from the bondage of sin that unfortunately just like many of the Israelites, wanted to go back to Egypt (bondage) instead of being free in Christ. But not everyone wants to come to the light and following in the footsteps of Jesus, sadly. All are called on, few are chosen because few respond.
