Verily I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you - John 6:53
There's no life without the divine sacraments Baptism and Eucharist as found in His Church.
Yes, but some have turned it into a pagan sun-worshipping ritual practiced every Sunday, as the Roman Catholic Church has.
You mean the day our Lord was resurrected and destroyed death and made the world anew?
But worshipping Saturn in Saturday is much better, right? Wait, why do still use the roman calendar worshipping Janus in January and Mars in March? Are you a damn pagan? Have you considered the days of the week, much like the calendar, were inherited but their pagan context wasn't preserved? Like how pagan people get baptized and are still the same person but are now Christian? Retarded word-concept fallacy...
They can call the days whatever they like. The seventh day is still the seventh day.
The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished. On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done. (Genesis 2:1-3)
You can come up with semantical reasons as to why you might not keep it, but disobedience is still disobedience. God sees the true intentions of your heart.
There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his. Let’s therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience. For the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart. There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account. (Hebrews 4:9-13)
It's not semantical reason - the world was literally made anew with the Resurrection. The Sabbath was given by God in the Old Testament. But God made a New Testament with His people - the Christians. The NT transcends and fulfils the OT. Christians still honor the seventh day (OT) but the first day is superior (NT) and it has become the Lord's Day since God became flesh ("Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath").
Read the Church fathers on that. God wants you to obey His Church. Or don't and go with your own interpretation (that's not obedience btw, it's pride and you are being deceived by Satan and his footsoldiers) and continue in your judaizing heresy. Jews will do anything to deceive Christians into blasphemy and not worshipping Christ. They truly hate Him.
