The doctrinal differences which arise in such arguments stem primarily in the establishment of the doctrine of Dispensationalism, a doctrine which cites that there were different dispensations, one of Law, and another Grace. The same Doctrine touts that we are in the dispensation of Grace and that the dispensation of Law ended at Calvary with Christs' ultimate sacrifice.
The Sunday keeper, would tout that Man is Saved by Grace and not of Works, quoting the apostle Paul in Ephesians Chapter 2.
I don't dispute this, as matter of fact I wholeheartedly believe it, saved by grace that is.
You see those who would tout Sunday as Sabbath, who would adhere to such overlook an important truth, One thing in the entire Bible that mankind in general, Gods people were given as a whole entity to Remember, is Sabbath. By forsaking it and replacing it, you are in effect discarding it and forgetting it. That is not remembering Sabbath.
Now as far as the doctrine of Law verses grace, I won't go into that in detail in this lesson, but will summarize the matter by saying that nothing could be further from the truth. Christ himself cited that "I come not to destroy the law, but to fulfill the law." The dispensationalist would argue that the law was fulfilled at Calvary, That it ended and grace began.
OK, that's a load of junk. Law and Grace have existed since the Garden of Eden. In the days Of Christ, Yeshua Messiah,
(for those who don't know, Yeshua, was his name, the Hebrew language has no "J" and Yeshua, is the equivalent of "Joshua", meaning "Gods' Darling"--Jesus is a Greek name, and the Jews despised the Greeks in 0 AD)
