The standard Christian view is that the law of Moses was "fulfilled" by being converted into a single great commandment and written in the hearts of the believers. The detailed 613 mitzvahs of the Old Testament are not demanded of Christians.
Matthew 5:18.
And yet, modern Christians selectively pick and chose which mitzvahs they keep and which they discard - they still 'remember the Sabbath and keep it holy', but they're not terribly keen on burnt offerings.

Only select groups of Christians try to keep the Sabbath nowadays actually. Christians generally celebrate the Lord's Day, namely Sunday.
But that aside, the New Testament is generally about the spirit of the law rather than the letter. Though it's true that nevertheless select Christians today still hold to a legalistic interpretation of the Scriptures, such as seventh-day Adventists.
