Why?

"Christ died on the cross 

--to redeem men from sin and to sanctify them, 

--to blot out from this world everything that relates to sin, 

--and to restore this world to its original Edenic glory. 

Q: Why, then, would Christ seek to abolish the Sabbath, which God set aside and hallowed in the sinless beauty of Eden? 

The Sabbath is not a post-Fall accommodation of sin. 

Sabbath objectors make no serious attempt to face this question.... the Lord calls the Sabbath “My holy day,” and then appeals to us to call it “a delight, the holy of the Lord, honorable.” Isaiah 58:13."
