There is no point. Anyone who believes they can tell Yeshua that He is wrong and that it's okay to disobey God is beyond the pale at worst and Scripturally ignorant at best.
Matthew 5:19 -- " 'Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.' "
To teach that any one of Aseret ha-Dibrot is only for Jews points a finger of arrogance and disdain, indeed hatred and division, at those Brothers and Sisters who uphold it to know what God considers right and wrong. That is, Lutherans, Catholics, Methodists, Baptists, Orthodox, Presbyterians, Messianic Jews, etc. While we are no longer under the Law for salvation, God intends for us still to be obedient and refrain from sinning. We know what sin is by Aseret ha-Dibrot and to dismiss any portion of it saying this one or that one is for these people or that people creates division in the Body and encourages sin. Whether one celebrates the Sabbath beginning Friday evening or celebrates the Sabbath of a Sunday morning, the Sabbath is most definitely not just for the Jews.
Revelation 22:14 -- " 'Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.' "
Revelation 14:12 -- "Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus." Nowhere in Scripture will we find permission to pass off any of God's commands. Clearly, we can twist Scripture to make it imply that though, can't we?...and we only please ourselves when we do such. God's not smiling.
