It is a myth that when it comes to any kind of dispensationalism, that Pre-Cross was saved by the Law and Post-Cross is saved by Grace. Why? Because from Genesis to Revelation we have always been under Grace. Yet Grace has never negated the Law of God and His requirements. We are not saved by the Law-we keep the Law because He told us too. If there is to be any kind of dispensational categorization the view would be that Pre-Cross was the SYMBOLISM of the earthly sanctuary. Post-Cross would be the REALITY of the Heavenly Sanctuary where He works as our HighPriest. (See the book of Hebrews).
Sabbath isn't just for the Jews-the "gentile" converts kept it too...
And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. Acts 13:42
And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. Acts 13:44
And why? Because the Law applies to all of us-all 10 of those Commandments. If you reject the 4th Commandment, will you reject the one about adultery too? How about the one for stealing? Murder? Get the point?
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. James 2:10,11 Wasn't James written after the cross?
