Jesus gave his 2 greatest commandments and said on these commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

@@Will-nb8qk Yes 👍🏻 Hang ALL The Law. The 10 Commandments are Eternal.

[@kgp4death]

@@Will-nb8qk He actually said the law and the prophets "hang on" these 2 commands, hang on not replace not remove he says came "not to destroy the old law but fulfil". (same quote as you gave) To love God is expressed under first 4 commandments ie the first tablet, love others like yourself is expressed with second tablet. The main problem here is that "law" means various things. You have the legal system, you have the sacrificial system, you have the first 5 books which also called the law. The ceremonial/sacrificial system and the civil system is obviously fulfilled because Jesus became the sacrifice. The reason they also lump in the 10 commandments into that is because they hate the Sabbath and Idol law. No one thing killing has been nailed to the cross of adulatory is nailed to the cross or do not take y name in vain was nailed to the cross. They just nail the ones they do not like to the cross picking and choosing ie "being like God knowing good and evil" just like in the garden. Do good not evil by Gods definition not your definition, as evidence of being saved in faith it is producing Good fruit.

[@Will-nb8qk]

@@kgp4death : If you are a New Covenant follower you are adhering to Jesus new way. The commandments and love are inseparable. Romans 13: 8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. Jesus as the high priest became our blameless conduit to Father God.

@@Will-nb8qk well said love your neghbour is th he second tablet and love God is the first 4 commandments ( which include the idol one and sabbath one)....what most people see though is love does away with 10 commandments....which is not what it says.

I can go in detail to even the years it was fullfilled and how a seed of Cain survived the first death of waters and repentance (Noah's flood) through the law of vengance. Canaan Hallo . From Canaan came the Amorites !!! Iniguity be avenged of the Cananites !!!!! 7 x 70 x 7 = 3430 years . This is from the 7th generation from Adam wich is Enoch who was taken by God as the declaration of the first death of waters because it repented the LORD in making man. Evil was in them continiously. Genesis 6. From the year 500 wich falls between the birth of Jarred and Enoch add 3430 years plus 70 hallow years and you get 4000 years.

[@ALAINDEGRANDPRE]

The devil is hard at work and more cunning than any human being, unless they cling to God. That's why this thinking is spread around.

[@AlisonChristian-bq4ws]

God created the Law, Jesus came to fulfill its intent. God, Jesus and Holy Spirit are 3 persons. Jesus fulfills the law by communicating to the holy spirit which convicts believers of sin and moves on their hearts to change. Example: the old law was that women should not dress like men and they shouldn’t adorn themselves outwardly. The purpose was to achieve modesty and being beautiful on the inside. Today many women wear dresses only and look down upon other women like they are sinning for wearing women’s pants. So then we have a judgemental women in a dress and perhaps a person in pants who isn’t judgemental. That’s where the need for Jesus comes in, he convicts the hearts of the one who thinks they are righteous because they are following what they perceive was a dress code (LAW) but fail to realize the intent at the expense of judging a sister in Christ unrighteously. This happens all the time in Pentecostal churches. They think they are better because they wear dresses and skirts only and will turn their nose up at a woman who isn’t. Do you really think God cares more about the heart or the outfit ??? The intent was modesty, a woman can be fully covered and modest without wearing a skirt. Also I see women in dresses in church but they are TIGHT dresses which goes against the intended principle. It says in Galatians 5:4. Galatians 5:4 in the Bible says, "You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace". This verse is part of Paul's warning against mixing the Gospel and the law to achieve justification That means don’t pick and choose which laws you will follow because you sure as shit can’t follow all of them and you NEED to believe in Jesus for salvation anywho. He will work on you from the inside out on what’s appropriate and what’s not. It’s called conviction.

[@ALAINDEGRANDPRE]

@@AlisonChristian-bq4ws You need to realize first that there is but one God, not three. He chooses to manifest Himself in any one of those three forms but he is not three separate persons. He is not a person at all but one entity that no person on earth can fully and completely understand. It is beyond our limited cerebral capacity. Second, you also need to realize that the english Bible we have was not written in english to start with. There are over 900 different english Bibles in english alone and because of copyright laws they are all different. Sadly, not a single one of them has been God inspired. Almost all of them have been using the greek texts as their source and greek has been the devil's favorite tool to deceive the nations. There are over 2,000 greek texts and among them the variations number in the hundred of thousands. So neither greek nor english are dependable to render the message of the original authors of the gospel. So you can not take them at face value. In reality there is but one GOD and he is the same today as He was in the past and will continue to be. He does not change, and He does not contradict Himself. The Law is perfect and has no need whatsoever to be changed in any way shape or form. 1John 2:3-6 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: Hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. 1John 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. The word that is translated as fulfilled actually means He obeyed the Law to perfection, to leave us an example to follow. It does not mean that He put an end to it at all, that is satan's message not God's.

@@AlisonChristian-bq4ws If you do not follow and keep the Law you are not part of God's people there is NO exception to that. The Law is the yardstick God gave His people so they could identify who comes from Him.

@Psalmist6693 don't mistake a covenant with the law. A covenant is the pact God makes with a group of people. The law existed since before writing existed. Just because the jews call their covenant "the law" doesn't mean it's THE law. Many times when the bible uses the word law, it's talking about the laws(norms) existing within a covenant, mostly to do with the mosaic law. God's law is eternal, the mosaic law was a civil law for the Jewish people.

@Jesus follower it definitely means we should increase our works. How can someone get more muscle without working out? The only way to get better at being obedient is to practice it. As Yahshua says, “many will say in that day ‘Master, Master! We did many wonders in ur name. We cast out demons in ur name.’ And i will say to them, ‘Depart from me. I never knew u. U who PRACTICED LAWLESSNESS. So if they are being rejected for practicing lawlessness then the opposite would be practicing lawfulness. “Practice” is an action we take to train ourselves to become better at a certain task. So if we wish to become more obedient (less sinful) then we should most definitely increase our good works. And in doing so, we’ll see positive results that will motivate us to continue growing. Jus like working out. U start seeing results and it causes u to want to put in more work. James literally said that he shows his faith by doin works. Works are the very evidence of where we place our faith. My faith is in Christ. And John says “anyone who says he believes in Him, should himself walk as He walked.” And Christ kept every command (good works). So are u saying that we shouldn’t follow His example of obedience to God?

[@timwhitmore7]

Why risk what? Our salvation is guaranteed by grace through faith in Christ. We are divorced from the law of Moses and married to another, Christ. We cannot be married to both, else Christ becomes of no effect to us. The real risk is seeking to work for salvation that is given to us freely, which shows a lack of faith. Jesus is not referring to old testament commandments, but the ones He gave during His earthly ministry. Loving God and others as ourselves is what He commands us to do.

Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Mat 5:20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Destroy G2647 From G2596 and G3089; to loosen down (disintegrate), that is, (by implication) to demolish (literally or figuratively); specifically (compare G2646) to halt for the night: - destroy, dissolve, be guest, lodge, come to nought, overthrow, throw down. Fulfill G4137 From G4134; to make replete, that is, (literally) to cram (a net), level up (a hollow), or (figuratively) to furnish (or imbue, diffuse, influence), satisfy, execute (an office), finish (a period or task), verify (or coincide with a prediction), etc.: - accomplish, X after, (be) complete, end, expire, fill (up), fulfil, (be, make) full (come), fully preach, perfect, supply. How can we understand what meaning of “Fulfill” to use? By the Word! Luk 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Can God’s law be destroyed without our destruction? No! Jer 31:36 If those ordinances (The Law) depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel (see Gal 3:29) also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. So were ALL things fulfilled with Jesus at the cross? No! But ALL things “concerning Jesus” in the law, prophets, and Psalms were fulfilled! Then we must conclude that the word “Fulfill” means He accomplished the Fathers Law perfectly and fully preached with understanding how we must obey the Fathers Law. If we try to say He destroyed the Law for us, then that makes it about us and not as it says, “concerning Him” (Luk 24:44), and we would no longer exist (Jer 31:36)! Which Mat 5:18 gives us our understanding in this already: Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Now we also have evidence in the very next verse after Mat 5:17 in regards to “Jesus coming to fulfill”. Because it says; heaven and earth must pass away before “the written law (this is a time when He writes His law in our hearts to perfectly obey) can pass away, and then “ALL BE FULFILLED”! Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. H3820 “Heart” A form of H3824; the heart; also used (figuratively) very widely for the feelings, the will and even the intellect; likewise for the centre of anything: - + care for, comfortably, consent, X considered, courag [-eous], friend [-ly], ([broken-], [hard-], [merry-], [stiff-], [stout-], double) heart ([-ed]), X heed, X I, kindly, midst, mind (-ed), X regard ([-ed)], X themselves, X unawares, understanding, X well, willingly, wisdom. Just as Hebrews teaches, which was 70 years after the resurrection, “Behold the days come”! Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them (us), he saith, Behold, the days come (Future event), saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah (Saying Israel and Judah includes all believers): Heb 8:9 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant (Just as we don’t perfectly keep His law), and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. Heb 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: Heb 8:11 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. Heb 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more (We haven’t gone through His judgment). Heb 8:13 In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away (It hasn’t happened yet). We have the New Testament, Jesus Christ! For there must be a “Testator”, the one who must die, for the family to receive their inheritance (The Believer)! The confusion for many is that covenant and testament are the same exact word. A covenant with the Father requires a “Blood Sacrifice”, which Jesus fulfilled on the cross!

From Canaan came the Amorites !!! Iniguity be avenged of the Cananites !!!!! 7 x 70 x 7 = 3430 years . This is from the 7th generation from Adam wich is Enoch who was taken by God as the declaration of the first death of waters because it repented the LORD in making man. Evil was in them continiously. Genesis 6. From the year 500 wich falls between the birth of Jarred and Enoch add 3430 years plus 70 hallow years and you get 4000 years.

[@natek3954]

I thought I understood but I’m still confused… if Jesus taught us to obey the law then why after his death (for sin) would we no longer be required to keep the mosaic law?

[@K1NG_D0ME]

We definitely should obey the commands as given through the prophet Moses. He literally said in Matthew 5:17 - “Think not that I came to abolish the law or prophets. I come not to abolish but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. 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.” Those are pretty strong words. He didn’t come to abolish but to fulfill. Let’s stop there for jus a moment. Many Christians understand the word “abolish” jus fine here. But they twist the definition of the word “fulfill”. They say that the word “fulfill” means to “complete or bring to an end.” But this isn’t technically true. Although the word “complete” is one of the definitions for “fulfill” its in the context of the main two definitions as given in the Strongs concordance. The word “fulfill” in Matthew 5:17 is the Greek word “pleroo”. It’s main definition, which is the one used in this verse, is “to fill to the full” or “fully fill”. The second most common usage is defined as “to make abound”. So we have to ask the question, “How did Christ make the law filled up to the full?” Becuz He said “I came not to abolish but to pleroo (fill up fully) the law.” The answer becomes obvious when u think about what made Christ so special. And of course Him dying and rising is certainly quite special, however those things wouldn’t have been possible if He had broken Gods commands. The only reason Christ was able to defeat death was becuz He was without sin for His whole life. He was perfect. So think about this…. He kept every command perfectly but no one else around Him did. They all broke the commands. So when u looked at Christ u were literally seeing the law of God in its fullness in His character. U can’t see the law fully filled by anyone else. We’ve all sinned. But not Him. He came to show us what the law looks like in its FULLNESS. And then He taught everyone to live like Him! John even says in 1 John 2:6 “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” So if we believe in Christ then we should live as He lived.. which was obedience to Gods commands. Peter in Acts 10 is still eating only clean animals even ten years after the death of Christ. And he didn’t start eating unclean animals after his visions either cuz he was shown what the visions were really about. People try to say that if we have a desire to obey Gods commands then we are trying to earn our own salvation. But that is the furthest thing from the truth. I’m someone who both believes in Christ and obeys the commands of God. But I know that my obedience won’t save me becuz I’ve already sinned. Only Christ can give me eternal life. But does that mean I’m allowed to sin now? Of course not! Paul makes these comments many times. Like when he says "Do we make void the law through faith? God forbid. Yea, we uphold the law." Please consider the definition of Sin. John gives the definition of sin in 1 John 3:4 “anyone who sins breaks the law. In fact sin is lawlessness.” Ask basic questions. How do I accept the forgiveness of Christ? The answer: repent. What does repent mean? It literally means to turn away. What am I turning away from? U are turning away from sin. What is sin? Breaking the law of God. How do I love God? John 14:15 - “If you love me, keep my commands”… 1 John 5:3- “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commands. And His commandments are not burdensome.” And remember that in Matthew 5 Christ said that “not one jot or tiddle (smallest pen marks) shall be erased from the law until heaven and earth pass away.” And so I have to ask, have Heaven and earth passed away yet? The reason that’s interesting is becuz in the Torah (law) God actually tells the people Israel that Heaven and Earth are the two witnesses that Gods law still holds true. (On the witness of two or three a matter is established) so Christ said “not one jot or tiddle shall be erased from the law until Heaven and earth (the two witnesses) pass away.” Deuteronomy 30:15-19 “See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil; 16 In that I command thee this day to love the Lord thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the Lord thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it. 17 But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them; 18 I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it. 19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:”

AMEN... The Law is good... that it reveals sin... but thats all it can do... The law was added to prepare God's people of the coming Messiah.... when the full weight of sin and death is upon us... we seek a saviour and we turn to Christ... we see the cost... we see the full weight of his Grace... and it is this Grace that saves us from our sin... for it is the goodness of God that leads a man into repentance and into Trusting Christ... which ultimately leads to loving worship which GLORIFIES GOD and gives honour to his Name which the enemy of God HATES he hates God being praised... he wants us to be miserable and to curse God (for me, this is what brings the most suffering here on earth, the lack of worship to God, the lack of Praise, the lack of words speaking of His Glory of his Goodness. all the talk is of vain things... it can be so cold and lifeless... the world is void of hope... Man shall not leave by bread alone!) the enemy is very very cunning... even once saved and grafted into The Vine... his goal is to make you slip... to sin and feel ashamed and try to earn Gods grace again... to try to earn Gods favour by making amends... which will lead to frustration... and ultimately distance between you and God... the further away from Christ you are, you will wither... and once again God will not be receiving any thanksgiving... May our sin lead us not to despair but to the Throne of Grace where we SHALL be forgiven ALL our sins and find comfort in his presence we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.... if we Sin (God forbid) he will use it for our Good, to discipline and to reveal to us the exceeding riches of his grace towards us ^ God's grace to His people is continuous and is never exhausted. and it is HUMBLING Besides obviously Christ, another time that I have experienced such GRACE... was when I was on a drug comedown and my nephew & niece were over my house... they were climbing all over me while I was laying on the floor DEAD INSIDE... they wouldn't stop showering me with affection and love, even though I gave them nothing.. they just kept climbing all over me, they clung to me... they were relentless, eventually that day their love BROKE ME... I saw how beautiful they were, so innocent, kind and gracious towards me... an undeserving ugly selfish person who gave them nothing back... I ran to the bathroom, shut the door and wept out to God God has already given us His Word ... Jesus... who is the YES AND AMEN to all of his Promises IT MEANS GOD IS FOR YOU... NOT AGAINST YOU “Love prospers when a fault is forgiven, but dwelling on it separates close friends." Don't let Sin separate you from God... and don't let the guilt of Sin separate you from God...

And if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. LOVE DOES NO HARM TO A NEIGHBOR: THEREFORE LOVE IS THE FULFILLMENT OF THE LAW. FOR HE WHO LOVES ANOTHER HAS FULFILLED THE LAW. [Romans 13:8-10]. If you love God, and if you love your neighbor: you have fulfilled the law. This is why Jesus said, on these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets [Matthew 22:36-40]. And this is why Paul said, if you love your neighbor, you have fulfilled the law. For love is the fulfillment of the law [Romans 13:8-10]. [Galatians 5:14]. Israel did not keep the law of the old covenant from the old testament. So, Israel was under the curse of the law [Deuteronomy chapter 28]. So, God made a new covenant with Israel. And we, gentiles, which believe in Christ, are grafted into the new covenant with Israel. In the new covenant we cannot be justified by the law, because the law is not of faith [Galatians 3:11-12]. And without faith it is impossible to please God [Hebrew 11:6]. I don't tithe under the law, because the law is not of faith, and because I cannot be justified by the law. And because I don't want to be a debtor to keep the whole law of the old testament. The same applies to the circumcision, and to sin offerings. The law of the old testament will show you your sins..The law will condemned you.. The law will kill you. Because the law of God is: HOLY, AND SPIRITUAL [Romans chapter 7]. In the old testament, the adulterer, the idol worshipper, the murder, was stoned under the law of the ten commandments. In the new testament, they were going to stoned the woman caught in adultery under the law of the ten commandments. Jesus said, he who is without sin among you, cast the first stone at her [John 8:7]. Jesus was the only one there without sin, but he didn't cast the first stone at her, because Jesus did not come to condemned the world [John 3:17]. Under the law of the ten commandments, God gave the children of Israel: statutes, and ordinances, to perform under the ten commandments of God. In the new testament, the pharisees and scribes, made the ten commandments of God of none effect by their traditions [Mark 7:13]. If you are under the law of the ten commandments of God, you need to perform the duties of the law, that is, the statutes and ordinances of the ten commandments: the adulterer, the murder, and the idol worshipper, must be stoned, according to the statutes and ordinances of the law of the ten commandments of God. For it is written in the law; cursed is everyone that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to them [Galatians 3:10]. If you are under the works of the law of the old covenant, you are a debtor to do the whole law of God [Galatians 5:3]. Tithings, the circumcision, and animal sacrifices are under the works of the law. Hopefully this letter clears up any misunderstandings, or confusions, because God is not the author of confusion [1 Corinthians 14:33].

But thank God, when we were still sinners Christ (the perfect and sinless Lamb of God) die on the CROSS instead of us taking upon himself the punishment and damnation we (WRETCHED) sinners deserve. Christ nailed all our sins (LAWLESSNESS) on the CROSS and clothed us with his righteousness so that when we stand in front of God, when He sees us He sees the righteousness of His Son Jesus Christ, And when He sees the CROSS He sees our Sins nailed on the CROSS through Christ's finished work on the CROSS.

[@MorganDavis-ei5lr]

A good topic of discussion would be "what does it mean to "fulfil the Law". I think Jesus did this when He was debating the religious leaders and said "you have heard it said, love your neighbour, hate your enemy; BUT I SAY". He directly came against the religious law of the day that contradicted Moses. Later on the religious leaders threw it back in His face when they brought the woman caught in adultery. " The law of Moses says she should be stoned; BUT WHAT DO YOU SAY?" Fortunately, Jesus knew what they were trying to do, and His response is the cornerstone of our faith today; "he who is without sin; cast the first stone".

[@ALAINDEGRANDPRE]

Actually you missed part of the point about the adulteress woman. Leviticus stated that both parties, man and woman caught in the act had to be brought.

You are witnesses of these things." Luke 24:44‭-‬48

It means that those who were under the law and rejected Christ would remain under the law until all of it was accomplished, including the judgements that were promised for the covenant breakers.

Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old *is ready to vanish away."* Hebrews tells us that the law was ready to pass away at the time Hebrews was written, which was after the cross.

[@robertschmidt9296]

You asked about Galatians 2:16. I have a few things to say before I explain it. People think that they know what Paul was talking about but don't have a clue. This is because of what they are taught what Scripture says. If people would read in context and read it for what it actually says without interpreting it in any way, they will see that they are being deceived. There's a lot of Christians who are solid in their faith in the false doctrines, and they teach others, this is dangerous. One thing people don't think about is that at the time of Paul and the disciples, the new testament didn't exist so whenever they say anything about Scripture, they are talking about what we call the old testament. They were teaching and living by the old testament. They were men so they weren't perfect but they tried. They kept the Sabbath as well as the seven annual feasts. Which it boggles my mind why Christians ignore them. They are not Jewish feasts, they are Yahweh's feasts and they are about Yahweh's plan of redemption for mankind. Many people think that they are done away with but the first four have come to pass but the last three have not yet come to pass. The plan of salvation isn't finished yet so why was it stopped? And in the last millennium, we will be expected to keep them. Why would Yahweh expect us to keep them, then stop, then keep them again? That false doctrine makes no sense and is out of harmony with the whole of Scripture. I highly suggest that for the time being, forget about anything you know or think you know about Paul and focus on everything Yahushua said. Some important things He said plainly and if you interpret or twist what He said to fit what you think He meant, which clearly He did not, you are calling Him a liar. Everything He said is in harmony with the whole of Scripture. People who twist His words to fit what they think He meant to say don't realize that doesn't fit in harmony with Scripture, which should be a red flag it's a false doctrine. Yahushua makes it clear that the law or the prophets will not change even the slightest until heaven and earth pass away and all is fulfilled. Heaven and earth will pass away after judgment day which is after Yahushua's millennial reign. It's clear that the law is still in effect. But many Christians have solid faith that what Yahushua said isn't true. They trust what they mistakenly think Paul said instead. The penalty for breaking the law is death, this is the curse of the law that Paul was talking about. Yahweh's law provides a way for Yahushua to redeem us. This is the law that He fulfilled, He never changed anything. Just because He provided a way out of the death penalty doesn't mean that we are free to break His laws. Yahushua says to keep the law and Paul also taught to keep the law but most Christians are trained not to see that. What Paul is saying here that we have all failed at keeping the law perfectly so we can't be justified by keeping the law but we can be justified by faith in Yahushua. Nowhere here does it say anything about ignoring the law. If that is what he is saying, he is not only contradicting himself, he is also contradicting Scripture. Paul is hard to understand and read what 2 Peter 3:16 says about that and observe the warning. This is talking about all of the Christians that don't have understanding of the foundation of Scripture, which is most of them. If you don't truly understand the foundation (the old testament), you can't understand what Paul is saying.

It is now even higher because the thought of doing a sin is now a sin. We are saved by grace but if we love God we will obey him Following sin farther and farther from God is what the demons did. In the end they did not trust or believe in God. If you dont beliece in God any more guess what you are not saved

Matthew 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, ***till all be fulfilled. Revelation 17:17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, ***until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

No

[@zacharyyogus5013]

Yes. If you want to follow the law and trust in your own works to get to Heaven, you go right ahead. It won't work. These people in the comments section reject the New Covenant. They deny the finished work of Christ. Jesus fulfilled all of the law.

It’s also stated in Hebrew’s that the law has been established. Doesn’t sound like it’s irrelevant now does it.

In a scripture… Matthew 23:23 (KJV) Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. He fulfilled what they had omitted. Judgment, mercy and faith. Paul was zealous about punishing the guilty so that “judgment” couldn’t have been the “judgment” Christ referenced that they had omitted. He was referring to “righteous” judgment. Romans 4:15 (KJV) Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression. James 1:20 (KJV) For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Therefore His righteous judgment didn’t require wrath at all.

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Jesus did not come to abolish the law but fulfill it which means abolish it. Great stuff. What about Matthew 5:18?

He totally ignores how the passage says the laws wont change until heaven and earth pass away and earth is still here and I bet they would say heaven is too

[@robertschmidt9296]

​@@Dave_Langerya. Heaven and earth passing away happens before the new earth is created for the redeemed to inhabit, which is after judgment day, which is after Yahushua's millennial reign. People can't see that because they are trained not to see it.

The big problem is that the Bible was not written in english to start with. All english Bibles , and there is more than 900 of them, are translations and versions. The meaning of the word that has been rendered as fulfill does not mean that it is a completed item that can now be crossed off the list, as being completed and can now be forgotten That is not the message intended by the author of the Book. The word in the original text implies an idea of 'demonstration' and not 'abolishment'. That means our Saviour left us an example for us to follow and did not eleminate the ONLY possible way to establish a personal relationship with Him. This is still the same choice mankind has had to make since Eden: [GOD's Way] or [Our way]. Keep in mind that if there is one constantly present message in the Bible : THE ONLY WAY THAT WORKS IS HIS WAY!

The Ten Commandments are called the law if he covenant and the covenant was established with Abraham and is eternal

[@azarel7]

Looking through these comments, the saddest thing to me about them are is that some people think that without law, there is no guidance on how Christians are to behave. Paul, through the Holy Spirit says stuff like "Among you there must not even be a hint of sexual immorality or any kind of impurity for these are improper for God's holy people" Eph 5:3 "Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need." Eph 4:28 Verses with instruction on how the Church is supposed to live are all throughout his letters, but it's like to some people it doesn't even seem to count as instruction.

[@ALAINDEGRANDPRE]

Without Torah people always end up in idolatry and paganism. That's undeniable reality.

[@danielcliffordson8460]

HAS THE MAJORITY EVER BEEN WRONG? Consider: Matt. 22: On these two commands depend all The Written Law and The Prophets.” James 2:18 - Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works. Did you see that? James said that he will show his faith by his works! Some people will make the following statement, "Since we are not under the law, we therefore are not required to keep it." But what does Yeshua the Messiah have to say concerning this doctrine of "lawlessness"? Matthew 7:22 - Many will say to me in that day, "My master, my master, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?" 23 And then will I profess unto them, "I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." The word iniquity literally means "lawlessness"! Yeshua literally said, "Depart from me, you law breakers"! Isaiah 24:5 - The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. The term everlasting means "never ending" or "eternal". Do the commandments spoken in the word of YHWH still exist; and are we still expected to obey them? Or are YHWH's commandments obsolete, fulfilled and done away with, by the death of His son? Millions would answer "Yes, we are no longer under the law. It has been done away with and we are therefore no longer expected to keep it." This is a major doctrine of many Christian churches. But what does the Word of YHWH say?... Psalm 111:7 - The works of his hands are truth and judgment; all his commandments are sure. 8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness. It says for ever and ever! Let's go to Paul again... Romans 6:14 - For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under favor. 15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under favor? By no means! Paul said that because we are not under the law, that in no way gives us the right to sin! Actually, the thing that Paul was saying is that we are no longer under the 'curse of the law' (death) but rather, we are under favor (forgiveness), commonly called "grace". The following is the greatest command... Deuteronomy 6:5 - And thou shalt love YHWH thy Elohim with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. This command was repeated by Yeshua in Mat 22:36-38. But, what does this command mean, how do we do it? We will again turn to the Word of YHWH for insight... Deuteronomy 11:13 - And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love YHWH your Elohim, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 11:22 - For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love YHWH your Elohim, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him. Joshua 22:5 - But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of YHWH charged you, to love YHWH your Elohim, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul. According to the preceding verses, what we need to do in order to love YHWH our Elohim with all our heart and all our soul and all our might is to "keep His commandments". We need to strive to "not sin", but if we do sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Yeshua the Messiah (see 1John chapter 4). We should each have the goal to be over comers. Not only is it possible, but it is our duty! Shalom. YESHUA is the Living Torah, we should walk as our Master walks. By the way, who's sabbaths do you keep?

The Ten Commandments are to be followed, yet upon reading exodus 21-23 I can see many must’ve been put to death in those days.

[@theextreme7134]

Where does it say that in the new testament??

[@josepheidsvik7623]

@עִמָּנוּאֵל Actually, there are only 13 recorded deaths from the death penalty in the entire Bible and Jewish tradition

[@josepheidsvik7623]

@עִמָּנוּאֵל Since we were only referring to Exodus 21-23, which speaks of the death penalty for certain sins, I was only addressing the times in history where the judges of Israel have deemed the death penalty necessary for an individual. This is what is spoken of in Exodus 21-23. I was not addressing the death of whole groups of people.
