2 17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come
17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose. 18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not even the smallest detail of God’s law will disappear until its purpose is achieved. 19 So if you ignore the least commandment and teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven Matthew 5:17

3 But anyone who obeys God’s laws and teaches them will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.” But I warn you—unless your righteousness is better than the righteousness of the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven! 10

Came to ACCOMPLISH/ FULFILL their PURPOSE Not even the smallest detail of the law will disappear If you ignore the least commandment & teach others to do the same, you will be called the least in the kingdom Anyone who OBEYS & teaches them will be called great.

“Keep the Sabbath day holy.     Don’t pursue your own interests on that day, but enjoy the Sabbath and speak of it with delight as the LORD’s holy day. Honour the Sabbath in everything you do on that day, and don’t follow your own desires or talk idly. 14 Then the LORD will be your delight. I will give you great honour and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I, the LORD, have spoken!” Jeremiah 31:31

 a “sacred assembly” held on the Sabbath (Leviticus 23:3; cf.Numbers 28:9). The keeping of the Sabbath was the “sign” of the covenant between Israel and the Lord (Exodus 31:13).  Col. 2:16 give Christians freedom to observe a special day or to observe every day as special. God’s desire is that we worship and serve Him continually, every day, not just on Saturday or Sunday.  Jeremiah 31:31

19 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people are in the habit are doing, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Hebrews 10:25
