The origin of the SABBATH or when the SABBATH was made or introduced to mankind was in GENESIS where God made it for mankind *MARK 2:27-28 on the SEVENTH DAY of the creations week when mankind was in perfect harmony with God and before the fall of mankind *GENESIS 2:1-3. Now if the SABBATH was made at creation when there was no JEW and no ISREAL and JESUS as the creator says that he made it for mankind how can the SABBATH be only for the JEWS or ISREAL when there were no JEWS or ISREAL or God's plan of salvation for mankind because there was no sin?
May you receive Gods' Word and be blessed.

God's sheep hear His Voice (the Word of God) and follow him -
1. Within Chapter Context which is talking about SHADOW LAWS from the MOSAIC BOOK of the OLD COVENANT connected to annual festivals and circumcision which are not a part of the 10 commandments that give us the knowledge of what sin is when broken *ROMANS 3:20. The chapter context to COLOSSIANS 2:16 is demonstrated in the scriptures provided in post # 2 and post # 3. If you disagree please address these posts that show why you are in error and that the topic of conversation is not the 10 commandments but the MOSAIC laws in "ORDINANCES".
2. The laws in "ORDINANCES" are further demonstrated as not being Gods' 10 commandments in the scriptures and GREEK word meaning of "dogma" v14 which mean "ECCLESIASTICAL AND CEREMONIAL laws in reference to the Sanctuary service and sin offerings that come from the "SHADOW LAWS" from the MOSAIC BOOK of the OLD COVENANT and not God's 10 commandments. This is demonstrated from the scriptures in post # 3 and posts # 4. If you disagree with the scriptures here that show why you are in error please address these posts. If you cannot why do you not believe God's Word?
3. The GREEK word for SABBATH "SABBATON" is different to the HEBREW Word meaning which provides a different meaning depending on it’s application and can mean; 1. “the SABBATH (God’s 4th commandment)” or 2. “ANY DAY OF REST OR REPOSE FROM SECULAR WORK” or 3. “A SEVEN DAY WEEK” Depending on the words applicaion within the scriptures, all the word definitions listed above can be applied in singular form or in plural application. So as demonstrated in the scriptures posted in post # 2; post # 3 and posts # 4 the chapter CONTEXT is to the SHADOW laws in "ORDINANCES" while the "WITHIN SCRIPTURE CONTEXT" is to the "ANNUAL FESTIVALS" as shown in the scripture context in COLOSSIANS 2:16 [16] Let no man therefore judge you in MEAT, or in DRINK, or in respect of an HOLYDAY [FEASTIVALS], or of the NEW MOON, or of the SABBATH DAY <plural>. If you disagree with the scriptures here that show why you are in error please address these posts. If you cannot why do you not believe God's Word?

For example let's look at the context and do a word study of GALATIANS 4:9 that you use...
GALATIONS 4:4-11 [4], But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, [5], To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. [6], And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. [7], Therefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ. [8], But then, when you knew not God, you did service unto them which by nature are no gods. [9], But now, after you have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn you again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? [10], You observe days, and months, and times, and years. [11], I am afraid for you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.
GALATIANS.4:8-11 [8] Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.[9] But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? [10] YE OBSERVE DAYS, AND MONTHS, AND TIMES, AND YEARS. [11] I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
Note: Galatians 4 says nothing about sabbaths. Its speaking of those who observe times. Let's link old to the new...
DEUTERONOMY.18:9-11 [9] When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.[10] There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, OR AN OBSERVER OF TIMES, or an enchanter, or a witch,[11] Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
The same thing goes on to this very day. Its speaking of the occult. Those who observe certain days by use of horoscopes?
2 CHRONICLES 33:3-6 [3] For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.[4] Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever.[5] And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.[6] And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: ALSO HE OBSERVED TIMES, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger
Note: Enchantments, witchcraft, familiar spirits, and wizards. Its speaking of the occult. Not following sabbath days.
LEVITICUS.19:26-30 [26] Ye shall not eat any thing with the blood: neither shall ye use enchantment, NOR OBSERVE TIMES.[27] Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.[28] Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.[29] Do not prostitute thy daughter, to cause her to be a whore; lest the land fall to whoredom, and the land become full of wickedness.[30] YE SHALL KEEP MY SABBATHS, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD.
The scripture says it all. You shall not observe times BUT you will keep my sabbaths.
I suggest brother you turn away from following the teachings and traditions of men from the word of website and address the scriptures that disagree with you and show why you are in error. These are Gods' WORD and only sent in love and as a help to you. If you cannot why do you not believe God's Word?

Personally, I wouldn't go to a church whose members needed to be threatened not to steal or kill people. The Christians I'm familiar with don't want to do those sort of things.

“Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;” 1 Timothy 1:9–10 (KJV 1900) -
May you receive God's Word and be blessed. -
