Just a reminder.

For those who truly fear God, they will keep God's Commandments, all of them including the Fourth.

Exodus 20:
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

God made all things through Christ including the Sabbath. Christ was the one who spoke the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai. The Sabbath Command is to be obeyed by those who truly fear God.

Do you truly fear God?

You won't have long to find out because at sunset today you will have your answer as to whether you
truly fear God or not.

The Sabbath is not the works of the Law, it is rest. So, at sunset obey God and Christ and rest. The curses in our nation will cease if we all repent and turn to God and keep His Commandments -- all of them including His Sabbath.

Thank you for posting that bit of past History. The nation of Israel when under the law followed the law as you mentioned. Of course we live under Grace and are not the nation of Israel. We are so blessed.

No, many of us in this nation are modern-day Israel.

And the marriage agreement is over with ancient Israel but the spiritual laws that were part of that marriage agreement have not ended. God's Seventh Day Sabbath is still holy time and was established long before ancient Israel.

"...all his commandments are sure. They stand fast for ever and ever..." -- Psalm 111:7-8

1) Old Marriage Agreement = ended.
2) The Spiritual Law, the Ten Commandments = are sure and stand fast for ever and ever.

We are under grace only as long as we keep God's Commandments (by the Power of God's Holy Spirit). If we sin willfully, refusing to repent then we are no longer under grace.

But the carnal mind is hostile against God and will look for any loophole it can to get around submitting to God and His Spiritual Law the Ten Commandments and all of their magnification in Spiritual principles and civil laws, statutes and judgments.

Romans 8:
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

No you are not. Unless you are natural Israel you are a Gentile and can never claim for yourselves the blessings that belong to them only.

Speaking of sunset...

What does one do if they happen to live in the far north latitudes where the sun does not set at all in the summer 24/7, and/or does not rise at all in the winter 24/7??? No sabbath for them?

Midnight sun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You are confused. You are not going to Heaven. Spiritual Israel is going to rule with Christ on this earth. The Kingdom of God will be set up on this earth and they will be spiritual rulers, part of the Family of God, along with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, King David and Twelve Apostles, etc. Their reward is to share in the promises made to Abraham not to go to Heaven as this world would have you believe.

There are no gates in New Jerusalem for Gentiles but instead the 12 gates are named after the 12 tribes of Israel.

Gentiles must be grafted in (Romans 11) to become Israelites and partakers of the promises, thus the phrase "Spiritual Israel" which is composed of both flesh born Israelites and Gentiles.

Romans 11:
13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
15 For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
16 For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.
19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.
20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
21 For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.
24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
