It would appear that you are quite confused about the Ten Commandments.
How in the world can they be "for the flesh" since the New Covenant and the New Birth are of the Spirit, at which time those commandments are written on the hearts and minds of those who are born again?
HEBREWS 8
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
8 For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
As Paul tells, they were written on tablets of stone under the Old Covenant, but they are written on the hearts and minds -- by the regeneration of the Holy Spirit -- under the New Covenant.
Including keeping the 7th day (Saturday) as the Sabbath?
