Bible Study As We Observe The Seventh Day Sabbath As A Sign Between Him And Us Being Holy/Scripture

Mungo said:
The Sabbath was given to the Israelites as a sign of their Covenant with God (Ex 31:13 & 16-17).
It was never given to Gentiles.

Hello Mungo, In the beginning, the Lord made The Seventh Day and He rested Genesis 2:1-3

And many scriptures as to what The Sabbath is for.

You are reading things into scripture that are not there.
Gen 2:1-3 only says that God rested on that day.
It doesn't say he rested every 7th day, just as he didn't keep creating seas and vegetation every 3rd day or creating the sun and moon every 4th day.
There is no evidence that anyone kept a 7th day sabbath before God instructed the Israelites about it in Ex 16. If you read about it you will see that they didn't understand the concept.

Again you are reading things into scripture that are not there.
Jesus was speaking to the Jews about a law they had to obey. Nothing to do with Gentiles.

If Jesus literally meant ALL mankind then why did God never tell gentiles to keep a 7th day sabbath?

You are not accepting of what God's words are saying.

Here again, it is the same way that you are denying the truth.
 
If the Sabbath was so important for the Gentiles to keep... why did the Jerusalem council not include it in the mandatory teachings to the Gentiles?

Acts 15:20.
