Thanks everyone... I very much appreciate you all taking the time and giving the effort to answer my dilemma! Clarity is an amazing Blessing!

I always thought (and was taught) that the 10 commandments were for everyone, always. The Laws were for the Jews and fulfilled by Jesus.

I've got understanding now! Thank you for your efforts

Thank you for this clarifying explanation! I truly appreciate you taking the time to write all that out, and for the thoughtful prayer that went into your reply! I think I finally understand!... and why I've felt so confused over this issue! My brain was arguing with my heart's inscriptions. I'm...

THANK YOU!!! This is what I was asking... originally! <3

I'm not sure what you mean by this.

Sorry, I've been away for a bit. This means a lot to me, as I don't have any other way to get answers.

Well, thank you for your hurtful and unhelpful opinion.

This is helpful! Thank you! So keeping The Lord's day is still a commandment. So, my original question of What do Christians DO on this day?.. has here been answered as to what the ideal is.

No, not 'the Law'. But my (perhaps wrong) understanding is that Jesus fulfilled the law, but the 10 commandments are not part of the law, and they still stand. I really am not trying to get a debate going, I'm not arguing... I am confused! These are just questions from one who is continually...

Oh, how beautiful this sounds!

Is that not one of the 10 commandments? I genuinely don't understand why my question frustrates you.

This thoughtful answer confuses me. I agree, the law has been done away with, but not the commandments. Keeping Sabbath, or the Lord's day is a commandment.

No, I am not. I'm just a stumped Christian trying to keep it right. Are we not directed to keep the Sabbath Holy,too?

So you're saying just sit around and read scripture all day? Surely there are other ways to glorify God's day..

There is a lot the Bible admonishes us to Not Do on the Sabbath. My dilemma is what can we DO? I spend some time in prayer, some time reading the Word, and then I am stumped. I physically cannot sit around all day and end up just doing things (renovations on house etc) that are self-serving...

Know in your heart that God is big enough to handle this, and all our prayers for you will be answered

I had a vintage/antique shop, and hung a black wall mount rotary dial phone on the wall. SO many kids asked their parents what this item was for.. and so many parents had the wrong answers! I heard everything from ' it's a radio' to 'it's an old fashioned calculator, called an adding machine'...

Welcome,Tammy! I don't get here often, but when I do it's usually an uplifting experience. I hope you enjoy it,too <3

Adoption is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. If these teens get the Proper support network behind them, they (or just one of them) can definitely successfully raise a child. Adoption does have its place in society, but ask 90% of the now adult babies adopted and they will say the...
