Could you point me to the references where the apostles repeat the fourth commandment? I can't think of any at the moment...
There isn't a direct one, however there is none that tell us that the 4th is repealed either.
The Lord says:


Mar 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

Is the sabbath still made for man?
If men made in the image of God still exist (which they do), then there must still be a Sabbath rest for their good.
