Body: | Sabbatarians often remind us that "Jesus, our example, kept the weekly
Sabbath holy", but this doesn't prove we should keep the Sabbath today,
because Jesus, our example, also kept animal sacrifices.

Actual Sabbatarian false argument: "Christ our example kept the Sabbath!
Therefore we must keep the Sabbath!"
Answer:
If Jesus' example proves we must keep the Sabbath, then it also
proves we should keep animal sacrifices and perform circumcision! Jesus was
circumcised! What proves to much proves nothing at all!
Sabbatarians break Jesus example of keeping the Passover! Jesus kept
the Passover and every other Jewish feast day too! Mt 26:17-18
Sabbatarians break Jesus command to keep all the ceremonial Laws of
Moses! Mt 23:2 "The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the
chair of Moses; therefore all that they tell you, do and observe"
Sabbatarians break Jesus command to offer animal sacrifices: Luke
5:14 (Mark 1:44) And He ordered him to tell no one, "But go and show
yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, just as
Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."
When Sabbatarians explain to you why they don't follow Jesus example
or command to keep the Law of Moses, you will know why Christians don't
need to follow Jesus example of keeping the Sabbath day. Jesus was born and
died under the Old covenant and Jewish law: Gal 4:4
Jesus kept many things in addition to the Sabbath law. He kept the
entire ceremonial law of Moses!
