For Christians, no. ---------------------------------- Yes, Christians need to keep the Sabbath, for the Sabbath was established by God (Exodus 20:8-11). To follow Christ's teachings would mean you are a Christian, you can't pick and chose what sounds nice to you. Jesus said in Matthew 22:37-38 " "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind. This is the first and greatest commandment." " But how can we "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and mind." And if we love the Lord our God with all our heart and mind, we will keep his commands, including remembering the sabbath by keeping it holy. Not by just remembering it. == Jesus Christ abolished the sabbath in the sense of it being an obligation. If we love the Lord our God with all our heart we will gladly follow Jesus and do His will. Since Jesus is God, He has the right and the authority to command. He left no ongoing commandment to keep the sabbath. In fact when the church met in Acts 15 to discuss the very matter of keeping the Law the sabbath was not mentioned. "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy." Exodus 20:8 see also; Exodus 34:21, Numbers 15:32,36, Deuteronomy 5:12, Isaiah 56:2
In short, Christians aren't selective about what they keep and what they don't, at least they shouldn't be. If Jesus clearly commanded it then Christians would do it. ------------------------------------------------------------ Yes we should follow Jesus with all our heart and all our will and yes, he is definatly God. And since Jesus is the same God as the Jehovah God in the old testement (just different name) he did too order us to keep the Sabbath worships. Jesus never abolished the Sabbath, nor did he constitute a different day.

∙ 12y agoThe commandment to observe the Sabbath is a Hebrew or Jewish law. The Sabbath was the seventh day of the week when God rested. That day of rest is Saturday. The day of worship for Christians is Sunday, because this is the day the Lord rose from the dead. If you are speaking of Sunday as the Sabbath, there is no prohibition in the scriptures of working on Sunday. If you are Jewish, yes, there is a prohibition.
