Another mystery to me are the Elohim. God said "Let's make them in our image", who are they ? How many are there ? Isn't this still polytheism, with one, most high god ?

Do you love Jesus and accept him as Lord and Savior? Do you do your best to show Him through your daily life? If so, you're fine.
This Chart of the Week is over a hundred years old. It was prepared by Dr. William Meade Jones, a research expert in London, England. Well over a hundred languages prove that the week, everywhere, has seven days;—and that, in most languages, the native word for the seventh day is "Sabbath" (which means "rest" or "rest day") or "rest day."
Jones, a well-known British researcher, decided that since Scripture clearly shows that the Bible Sabbath was first given to mankind at the end of Creation Week, then two important facts would have had to be known throughout the ancient world: First, a fixing of the seven-day weekly cycle on a worldwide basis and, second, an ancient worldwide knowledge of the seventh-day Sabbath.
Chart of the week
We have had occasion to investigate the results of the works of specialists in chronology and we have never found one of them that has ever had the slightest doubt about the continuity of the weekly cycle since long before the Christian era.

"By calculating the eclipses, it can be proven that no time has been lost and the creation days were seven, divided into 24 hours each."—Dr. Hinkley, The Watchman, July 1926 [Hinkley was a well-known astronomer].
"The human race never lost the septenary [seven day] sequence of week days and that the Sabbath of these latter times comes down to us from Adam, though the ages, without a single lapse."—Dr. Totten, professor of astronomy at Yale University.
"Seven has been the ancient and honored number among the nations of the earth. They have measured their time by weeks from the beginning. The origin of this was the Sabbath of God, as Moses has given the reasons for it in his writings."—Dr. Lyman Coleman.
"There has been no change in our calendar in past centuries that has affected in any way the cycle of the week."—James Robertson, Director American Ephemeris, Navy Department, U.S. Naval Observatory, Washington, D.C., March 12, 1932.
"It can be said with assurance that not a day has been lost since Creation, and all the calendar changes notwithstanding, there has been no break in the weekly cycle."—Dr. Frank Jeffries, Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and Research Director of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, England.
You are way off base on this , although Rome fits in many ways they do not deny Christ as the son of God .
You NAILED it! (more correctly God revealed this truth to you powerfully)
I´m sorry, but it´s hard to take seriously anyone who thinks that they have outsmarted the devil or figured out god´s plan
I would like to know what happens to people who don't take both days serious, people who don't keep themselves busy with that kind of stuff you know?
I don't see him as somekind of saviour/messiah but more like a teacher. He was "the perfect example" in his behaviour and how to behave to and with people, more like that...

"If you love me, keep my father's commandments." - Jesus Christ
4th commandment:
"Keep Holy the Sabbaths of the Eternal, 6 days you shall work, but the 7th day is a Holy gathering forever as a SIGN throughout your generations that I am your God and you are my people."
Do you love Jesus Christ?
The actual one who spoke those words, or the counterfiet version of Jesus Christ you are led to worship in your church community, who recieved there authority to keep Sunday, Christmas and Easter from the Catholic Church, then claim you are not under her authority?
Jesus told you how to love him, you are not authorized to go against his words to please your faith.
"He who says, I know him (love Christ) and keep not the commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him"
God Bless,
Col 2:13-17 -- 13When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you[c] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14HAVING CANCELED THE WRITTEN CODE, WITH ITS REGULATIONS, THAT WAS AGAINST US AND THAT STOOD OPPOSED TO US; HE TOOK IT AWAY, NAILING IT TO THE CROSS.15And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.[d] 16THEREFORE DO NOT LET ANYONE JUDGE YOU BY what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or A SABBATH DAY. 17THESE ARE A SHADOW OF THE THINGS THAT WERE TO COME; THE REALITY, HOWEVER, IS FOUND IN CHRIST.
Romans 14:1-8 -- 1ACCEPT HIM WHOSE FAITH IS WEAK, WITHOUT PASSING JUDGMENT ON DISPUTABLE MATTERS. 2One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, WHOSE FAITH IS WEAK, EATS ONLY VEGETABLES...5One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6HE WHO REGARDS ONE DAY (not "the 7th day) AS SPECIAL, DOES SO TO THE LORD.
15 “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 You will [k] know them by their fruits. [l]Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? 17 So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 So then, you will [m]know them by their fruits.
21 “ Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. 22 Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many [n]miracles?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’
