No, law does not make you sin, the law only gives a name (label) to the sin and pronounces the punishment for breaking that commandment against it. Rom 3:20Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.
People who keep the ten commandments think they're meet God's standards. They're the ones who judge and condemn other people as if they're righteous and other are not. They persue righteousness by the law.
Another fact is, by the actions they feel they've earn there way into heaven.
The first error made by some them, is to isolate the law to only the ten commandments. This causes them to misapply what the New Testament calls "The Law."
It is true that what we call the 10 commandments, were spoken first from Mt Sinai. And Yes they were written in stone tablets, They were called the testimonies and also as the words of the covenant.
The judgments are also commandments......they give the punishments.
Exd 21:1¶Now these [are] the judgments which thou shalt set before them.
In the law, an eye for and eye, a tooth for a tooth, hand for hand, foot for a foot,Exd 21:24 is of the commandments given from Mt Sinai. Mat 5:38
A scribe had ask Jesus which was the first commandment.Mar 12:28
The first and second commandments of the law are actually........
#1Mar 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
Mar 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment
#2
Mar 12:31And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
Mar 12:32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth:
for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
Mar 12:33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Mar 12:34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him [any question].
Amen.. The Law teaches the knowledge of sin..how it is going to be dealt with by God.. what is sin.. What God has done through the sacrificial lamb whom we know as Yeshua........
