Where did the RCC get this silly idea that the priests could

Boastful, too, huh? Wasn't the sabbath created because the creator was tired?

Either way, no point trying to get you to clearly answer questions or clarify points, so good on you for all your writings, studies and holier than thou attitude.

I'm waiting on you.

Some of the laws were to show the Israelites how to worship God and atone for sin (the sacrificial system). Some of the laws were intended to make the Israelites distinct from other nations (the food and clothing rules). None of the Old Testament law is binding on Christians today. When Jesus died on the cross, He put an end to the Old Testament law (Romans 10:4; Galatians 3:23–25; Ephesians 2:15).

The law was superseded by the Christian dispensation
Luke 16:16/ Eph 2:15/ Rom 7:6
The law was not superseded by the Christian dispensation
Matt 5:17-19

Your own bible and it's writers can't even agree...no chance of us agreeing. Oh, and that kind of ruins any credibility of any further cut and paste scriptures you post.

You don't understand. They are both true. But how could they both be true?

People who argue Supersessionism usually fall into camps that can't explain it to you because they believe in replacement theology that the Church has replaced Israel. One of the other perceived problems of dispensationalism is that it teaches two gospels. Dispensationalism really teaches one gospel but people call it two.

The natural branches (Israel) were cut off but they will be grafted in again by God. In the beginning, it was the Jewish nation of Israel that was in charge. They were cut off and God's mission was given to the church because the Holy Spirit and control went to the Church. After the rapture of the church, control goes back to Israel (the 144,000) and not the Catholic church.

During the Church age, the law was superseded by the Christian dispensation.
After the rapture of the Church, the Jewish nation of Israel will be in charge and since the law is their covenant with God, they will use the law.

Therefore both are true but for different dispensations. You don't understand so you have a contradiction. I understand so I don't have a contradiction. You can quote the apparent contradiction trying to prove people stupid but the one that doesn't understand it is you. The other people who don't understand it is those who wrongly believe the Church has replaced Israel because of their satanic and anti-semitic theology.

King James Bible
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.

You need Sunday school in a healthy and well balanced church. Maybe you don't understand because the Bible was written to God's children and not you.

Pretty sanctimonious of you, ins't it? If I'm not one of god's children, I'm good with that and no need to go to "Sunday" school. (why can you only study religion on Sunday?)

If studying and being a child of god makes me more like you, no thanks. I don't want to be a pompous ass.

I have my peace with my creator and where I am in the scheme of things. Go back to your books and your hate of Catholics, and anyone who doesn't agree with you or questions your self proclaimed scholarly authority.

The majority of people go on Sunday because the event of Christ's resurrection is the only factor that changed the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday. You can go on Wednesday if they have a Bible study or whenever Christians meet.

Sabbatarianism
”The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath” (Mark 2:27).
The point which Jesus made is that the Sabbath was not instituted to enslave people, but to benefit them.
according to Colossians 2:17, the Sabbath was “a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.”
The Sabbath observance was associated with redemption in Deuteronomy 5:15
The spirit of Sabbath observance is continued in the NT observance of rest and worship on the first day of the week.
New Testament believers are not under the OT Law (Rom. 6:14; Gal. 3:24-25).
the early church was given the pattern of Sunday worship by His resurrection on the first day of the week (Matt. 28:1)
His continued appearances on succeeding Sundays (John 20:26), and the descent of the Holy Spirit on Sunday (Acts 2:1)
the early church was given the pattern of Sunday worship. This they did regularly (Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2).
Sunday worship was further hallowed by our Lord who appeared to John in that last great vision on “the Lord’s Day” (Rev. 1:10).
It is for these reasons that Christians worship on Sunday, rather than on the Jewish Sabbath.
