Indeed, and then the fruits come...Indeed it is, as saved by faith alone grace alone!
Keeping something never commanded to us for keeping not a good work!Indeed, and then the fruits come...
2 Corinthians 9:8
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
Only command needed is to trust in Jesus to save you from your sins!Christ says different...
Matthew 19:17
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Scripture is clear, those who truly come into the light of the Lord, walk as children of light, not continue in sin and iniquity.Only command needed is to trust in Jesus to save you from your sins!
There is nothing, but still people keep trying. The Sabbath was never abolished, and nowhere was it transferred to the first day.

Ephesians 5:8-10 King James Version (KJV)
8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth
10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
We must allow Christ in our lives, and depart from sin and iniquity, and walk in the light.So you NEVER sin, ever? Sorry my friend that is an impossibility.

2 Timothy 2:18-20 King James Version (KJV)
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
Just after mention of walking in the light (1 John 5:7),
the Scriptures state:
"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." (1 John 5:8)
"If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us" (1 John 5:10)
That is why you have to put on Christs robe of righteousness and walk in the light, He in us and we in Him, not continue in sin and darkness..Just after mention of walking in the light (1 John 5:7),

Romans 8:9-14 King James Version (KJV)
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
So you NEVER sin, ever? Sorry my friend that is an impossibility.
Sorry bro, Its POSSIBLE.
Part of the problem is thinking its impossible.
Deuteronomy 30
11“For this commandment which I command you today is not too difficult for you, nor is it out of reach. 12“It is not in heaven, that you should say, ‘Who will go up to heaven for us to get it for us and make us hear it, that we may observe it?’ 13“Nor is it beyond the sea, that you should say, ‘Who will cross the sea for us to get it for us and make us hear it, that we may observe it?’ 14“But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may observe it.
Matthew 11
28“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. 29“Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30“For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
Even the attitude that its unlikely which i guess is normal for everyone to feel would still be a judgement on my part.
In a subtle way says how much you trust God.
The apostles thought its tough too.Sorry, you think it is possible I don't. Even if you locked yourself in a dark room at some point your mind will drift and bam! - you will have had a sinful thought. We must always be on guard, but thankfully we of orthodox belief have the sacrament of reconcilliation, a very important thing to have for those who at some point will sin.
See, you have even admitted your sin - you made a judgement, no matter how well intentioned it was you still sinned. The fires of hell for you brother! (LOL)
That is NOT the good news, but human effort bad news Gospel!Where in the Holy Writ does it specifically say that? Answer: It doesn't. Final judgement will be made on the actions we have taken throughout our lives.
