This ain’t nothing. I know evangelicals who think the Ten Commandments were abolished at the cross. They actually don’t believe in the Ten Commamdments anymore all because of the Sabbath. It’s bizarre. They saw Jesus fulfilled the law, which means he destroyed it.

But then they turn around have their own laws against like Abortion and homosexuality, etc. It’s a bizarre relatively new theology. Crazy......

Sounds like you are making up a false strawman. Never have heard that from evangelicals.

“I know evangelicals who think the Ten Commandments were abolished at the cross. They actually don’t believe in the Ten Commamdments anymore all because of the Sabbath”

We don’t “believe” the Ten Commandments in the context of Jewish Law. Christ’s crucifixion put us under grace which replaced Jewish law.

However, we do believe the Ten Commandments as tenets of Christianity, as all except one were repeated in the New Testament. (The Commandment re Sabbath Day is not mentioned in the New Testament.)

Before Christ’s death, people were “saved” by faith in God and keeping Commandments. After Christ’s death, keeping the Law for salvation no longer was “a thing”.

There are evangelicals who worship on the Sabbath. In the town where my mom lives there’s a Seventh Day Baptist Church, and many congregations in that area of NYS. I don’t know how far that extends into other states.
