No, I think He meant that certain actions were permissble on the Sabbath that were not considered acceptable.

If someone wants to say they do know something about what Jesus taught and did then they are going to have to produce some documentation from this times period. If they can’t then they decieving people.
All we have of what Jesus taught is found in the Scriptures. We can search them for these things and they are never found on the lips of Jesus in any form.

She did. Acts 1:14
No. Being a mother encompasses for more than this.
Not so. Purgatory is not a place to look forward to. It denies the total suficency of the death of Christ as full payment for our sins.

Is there any exhortation from any of the apostles to keep the Sabbath for Christians? Is there any teaching from them that tells us that keeping the Sabbath makes one more righteous?

No, ja4. All YOU have is the Scriptures, because you have made a decision to reject the Apostolic Teaching that is not found in their pages. That is your right, of course, but it does not give you the right to eliminate Sacred Tradition for the rest of us who have received it with gladness and thanksgiving.
13 And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers. 1 Thess 2:13-14
You may choose to believe that God has not preserved this Word, except by the written portion, but Catholics believe that God is able to watch over His word to perform it.
So, don’t you think if they wanted her to pray for them, they would just ask her? Actually, I bet then didn’t even need to, I bet she just volunteered! These are the disciples of her own Divine Son! I can’t imagine her not upholding them in prayer!
It is very Catholic of you to say so!
Catholics believe mama taught Him His first prayers, and prayed with Him and for Him throughout His earthly life, right up to the foot of the cross. We also see her praying with His disciples after the resurrection. She prays with His disciples to this day.Oh, not at all! In fact, if it were not for the sufficiency of Christ, we would not have the blessing of being purified so that we can be with HIm for an eternity. Do you not believe in the temporal punishment for sins?
Walking according to God’s commandments definitely makes a person more righteous. As you recently noted in another thread, there is a process of learning to live and walk according to the ways of God.
2 Cor 3:18
18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
Jesus makes it clear that we are to keep the commandments, and there is no instruction by Him or the Apostles to “undo” the Sabbath as it was commanded. When Jesus saw it necessary to clarify the commandments, He did so (such as the example you gave of loving one’s neighbor as oneself). He never did this with the Sabbath. This is an example of Protestants dispensing with Holy Scripture.
