Prayer service in the prayer room before the main service? Anointing the sick with oil? Laying on hands for ordination, healing, deliverance, receiving the Holy Ghost? Wearing your Sunday best? And a dozen other things most of us do as Christians?
Also, Paul never said "we are not to keep holy days".

What I'm asking is that the sabbath is part of the moral law? If that is true then it isn't just about ritual. You not commiting murder isn't ritualistic, or giving honor to your parents with respect. Not to commit adultery, isn't practiced through ritual, or it would be some meaningless command done out of duty, not of love.
