Jesus didnt carry his cross. Symon did

If the writer of the book of Mathew is telling the truth when he said a man from Cyrene named Symon carried his cross then maybe it was Symon they crucified. Christians should find that very believable. After all they believe many have been martyrs for Jesus. So why not one more?
The writer doesn't say what Jesus was doing or where he was when Symon was suffering for your sins

Don't tell me what the bible supports. You think Christianity is supported by Gid and the prophets. Your religion us all about not keeping the law. So what do you care about the laws if the Sabbath? Your sabbath doesn't honor God. It honors Constantine of Rome. He made Sunday your day of worship.

Im not going to explain the laws of the sabbath to someone who has no intention of keeping them. What for?

If you don't believe what you read in it, there is nothing I can do about that.

No. The majority of those that call themselves 'Christians' are in name only. They don't follow most of Jesus' directions anyway.
Your religion us all about not keeping the law.
My religion is about 3 things, the sanctification of the name of God, Jehovah. The kingdom that is already in Heaven that will soon be on the Earth as well. And the Believe that Jesus Christ was sent as a savior for mankind.
So what do you care about the laws if the Sabbath?
“The Law has become our tutor leading to Christ, that we might be declared righteous due to faith. But now that the faith has arrived, we are no longer under a tutor.�​—Gal 3:24, 25

We are no longer under the Law of Moses. I only care for the principle the Sabbath was made for.
Your sabbath doesn't honor God. It honors Constantine of Rome. He made Sunday your day of worship.
Sunday could be called anything. Under the law of the Christ, the day of worship is irrelevant. Just as long as you do set aside days for worship. Some of our congregations meet on Saturday because there are over 5 congregations meeting at the same building. Also, your judgements do not concern me. Colossians 2:16, 17. says no man can judge me if I keep the Sabbath or not.

That's ok, I already know them. I wanted to hear your version but I'll live without knowing your version.
