“Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist that deniers the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father; but he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.” (1 John 2:22,23)

Jesus warns That none of us are to be called “Rabbi”.

“Be ye not called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all he are brethren.” (Matthew 23:6)

Many Christian are unfamiliar with these verses because they don’t read their Bibles. They read commentaries or listen to preaching that demonstrates biblical ignorance or worse.

I admit to having entertained the Lunar Sabbath for a moment - One thing it offered that is very attractive is that the Sabbath Day cannot be lost.

Understand me: Abraham’s children seem to have lost the Sabbath day during their stay in Egypt. It had to be taught to them in the manna... And I have been long enough in the deep woods as to forget the days of the week - It is incredibly easy to do, at least for me. For that reason, I began to wonder how one might recover the Sabbath Day, if one has lost it.

In the vast timepiece that the Father has made, all the rest of his moedim can be determined... but the Sabbath Day, to the best of my knowledge, cannot. That is bothersome to me. You would think it would also be able to be calculated.

In the end, I resolved to agree with the Jews. But for me, my original question remains unanswered. If it becomes lost, how does one find the Sabbath again?

The following gives the Apostle Paul's perspective (the Christian perspective) on the Sabbath and other Jewish traditions.

"Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

Since you died with Christ to the elemental spiritual forces of this world, why, as though you still belonged to the world, do you submit to its rules: "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!"? These rules, which have to do with things that are all destined to perish with use, are based on merely human commands and teachings. Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence." - Colossians 2:16-23

My takeaway from Paul's teaching is this - when "tradition, rules or culture" become your God or your Way - you are missing it.

Yeshua said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No man comes to the Father (Abba) but through Me! This is the essence of Christianity.

Sounds like an anti-missionary to the Jews. He is very good at what he does but he gives himself away as being deceptive or ignorant of the King James Bible. He also does not get around to Septuagint scripture as this was not done by Christians an evidently is a none issue for him. His message though was to debunk Lunar Sabbath which is spot on.
