Hello borota,
I totally agree with you. Jesus himself says this to disciples (Matthew 24:20 Paul Younan's Interlinear Translation) - "And pray that your flight will not be in winter, nor on the Sabbath. "
Luke 4:16 (let me take NIV) - "He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom."
Acts 13:14 (NIV) - From Perga they ("Barnabas and Paul") went on to Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath they entered the synagogue and sat down.
Acts 18:4 (NIV) - "Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks."
Hebrews 4:9 (NIV) - "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God."
Scholar William Norton's Translation of Hebrews 4:9 from Peshitta clearly says this "So then, It is firmly sure that the people of God are to keep a Sabbath rest."
These are satisfactory evidences for me to believe that Sabbath is important.
