So I'm wondering about the 4th commandment to Honor the Sabbath and Keep it Holy. Is it no longer required to keep? It was for the nation of Israel only? And being called the LORD'S DAY, it is the first day of the week, which then is Sunday? Because it does say that the Sabbath is Saturday. AND if someone could explain Luke 23:54 with this question. Thank you.

The 4th commandment was not just for the nation of Israel, and the Lord Jesus showed examples of how the Sabbath is to be observed now. And the Apostle Paul said to not let others judge you about keeping it, as he also showed in Romans 13 that walking in love (fruit of the Spirit) will have one uphold all of the Lords commandments and teachings.
Hebrews 4 shows us how the Sabbath is observed now, as our Sabbath rest is in the Lord when we give ourselves over to Him to obey Him in our walk in the Spirit.
None of the commandments were done away with as some like to say, as just how they apply is what changed.
The bible shows that only contained within the written form with ordinances is how they were done away with, but the moral aspect of them is written in our hearts and our minds.

I always cringe a little when I think of Christians observing "one" day as Sabbath. I have a time with the Lord many hours of each day and take Him with me through what I do. I sort of live a Sabbath lifestyle.

as the master yahshua and all the apostles and hebrew ekklesia knew: (and you can verify almost only via hebrew sources; gentiles usually have no idea):
yahweh's 7th day sabbath started at creation, and continues through the end of all things at least. for all who seek the creator, not just the Jews. the 1st day of the week they NEVER called the lord's day. Luke 23:54 is easy to Hebrews raised knowing Yahweh. Hardly worth discussing in a gentile context at this time. (find faithful Jews to explain it; even they are few though). gjigt is one good exception- a fairly reliable site i think based in the country of greece, as faithful as any site can be , generally, to the original language and scriptural truth.
 
One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind.
