I disagree Shabath was a sign for the people of Israel throughout their generations. It was given as part as the mosaic laws.. Jesus is out Shabbat. He had done work in the shabath and also has said that our Father is always working and so does he.

Then you disagree with scripture. Unless you think the Exodus writer lied about what God said/how God worded the commandments, God made a day holy and He says He rested...and so should we. Does that mean resting from doing good? As Christ exemplified, no. But rest from everyday work for self.
i'm not gonna argue about this, there is no point arguing the bible only the Holy Spirit can change one's mind.
but i will leave this here for future reference and for others to learn for themselves and decide for themselves.
God says in exodus (10 commandments)
Exodus 20:8 King James Version (KJV)
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
therefore the commandment is about is remembering him sanctifying it.
the rest of exodus laws were given as part as the old covenant with he people of Israel (mosaic laws).

Since the new covenant and Jesus finished work on the cross there is no need to practice the Shabbat anymore but just to remember it.

There is no difference between the old and "new" covenant OTHER than one being based on a promise and the latter being based on that promise fulfilled.
NOT TRUE.
what God has given the people of Israel was work based salvation knowing the will fail and hoping they will understand
they need him for Salvation because works ain't gonna save them (all failed to keep) God has always required sacrifice for one's sin and that what Jesus was. the lamb. our lamb that was slain for us so there is no need in sacrifices anymore because he died once and for all.
so what you are basically saying that its always was this way and that Jesus didn't have to die at all. no point in his death.
we can learn that the old covenant was based on works, the new one is based on faith on the only one who can save us.

Also he did say I am the lord of the shabath therefore he’s our shabath and it’s not needed anymore.
Salvation based on faith not of works. Keeping the shabath only shows that we do not understand what Jesus has done for us.

Being Lord of the Sabbath is not equivalent to replacing the Sabbath. Being Lord of a house does not make one the house.
I don't even know how to begin here.. how is this even comparable..
regardless Jesus is the Lord of all, all things created for him and hes in all the things.
and yes being the Lord of the house gives you the right to decide if this house will turn lights in shabbath or not.
AKA Lord.

I know a lot of people who think they still need to follow the mosaic laws (idk where they got that idea.. probably false conversion or a religious spirit in them) but that’s not the case at all. In fact the whole book Galatians proves this.

When did God's law ever STOP pointing to righteousness? It hasn't. So while the law was put in place to point at sin, it was never the case that any person was ever saved by keeping the law. Salvation was through the promise prior to Christ and according to that promise realized through Christ, post crucifixion.
God instituted His law by a very clear manner. And without ANY word of the same clarity, you all shove it aside.
We only need to follow the law if we live according to the Spirit...which I think you'd agree the Spirit IS Righteous. Does that mean we follow the law in order to gain salvation? No. We follow because it is ( or should be ) written on our heart. Can we follow it perfectly? No. We are declared righteous according to CHRIST's perfect keeping, Christ's perfect atonement...etc. We can't keep it perfectly, but that doesn't mean that therefore we throw out one or all of it. It remains ( and always will ) as the measure of righteousness.
once again NOT TRUE.
Christ was the end of the law. he deliberately broke the law to show that hes above it, the laws where never important, what God judges is the heart. and therefore there is no need for the laws anymore (because if one loves their neighbor they will not steal from them, kill them, covet them etc etc).
whoever still follows the law does not understand what Christ is all about and what he has done for them.
(not saying they are not saved, this is not for me to decide).
Jesus breaking the law:
Luke 8:40-49 ( the women who touched Jesus garment and was healed, according to the law she wasn't supposed to leave her house)
Mark 3:1-6 , Luke 13:10-17 ( Jesus healing on the sabbath , and carrying ministry on the sabbath counts as work ).
Mark 2:23 ( Jesus and his disciples plucking on grain and corn fiends, which does count as work according to the law ).
Jesus gave over 100 of new laws that one should follow with the aid of the spirit , and intentionally left out the Sabbaths.
