Believe it or not, I am not teaching disobedience either, just that the letter of the the OT law covenant, as it was written in the OT, and just as it is written in the OT, never could save, etc, and actually was actually meant to do the opposite, etc, and if we want to truly obey we will forsake the letter of it/them, for what is written in and/or upon our hearts, which is just simply "love", etc, do it, be it, etc, and truly obey and/or fulfill the OT law covenant truly, etc...
And not to mention you won't walk in self-righteousness if your doing it right either, but if you go strictly by the letter of the law of the ten, the trap of it is, it's producing, most of the time, only self-righteousness only, etc...
But the way to apply it correctly, is allow it to kill you actually, but sometime before you are born again, etc, which is why it still has a place with some people that have not allowed it to completely kill them yet, etc, because most of the time, they think they are doing it themselves (keeping it/them) and this is a trap because it only puffs up, and only produces the very bad fruit of self-righteousness, etc, which was what had happened with the Pharisees, etc...
Anyway, enough of my rambling...
God Bless!
Let's talk about the correct application of the OT letter of the law covenant...?
Well, it supposed to kill you... It is not a pathway to true obedience, but is only meant to point out only your extreme disobedience, etc, when fully and truly applied correctly... Which is why Jesus said it would not pass away until all was fulfilled, or until the very last person to be truly saved was fully killed by it completely, etc... It's supposed to be a wholesale slaughter to your ego, etc... And what this is supposed to lead to, after that, is, well, repentance for one, and then being born again, and a turning toward Jesus' and all of the NT teachings and a full on true commitment to truly following them, for another, etc...
But it will not pass away until it is no longer needed anymore, and until every last one who is to be saved has allowed to it truly and fully "kill them" first, etc, which will probably only really truly and fully happen, right before Jesus comes back, or right when Jesus comes back, to rule and reign and set up God's Kingdom in the "thousand year reign" here on earth, after Armageddon, etc, then at that time, it will have passed away because it will no longer have any more true purpose after that anymore, etc, but it has "already passed away" for those whom it has already fully killed and pointed toward Christ, etc...
But for those who still think it is path to true obedience...?
Well, let's just they both are and have been greatly deceived, etc, and their "ego" and their haughtiness and pride and self-assuming, is very, very far from "dead" yet, etc...
And they still have "a long, long way to go" yet, etc...
And it's going to be very painful for them, etc...
To where many, and maybe "very, very many", in their pride, will not ever fully submit to it, etc...
Jesus did not change it, but only showed it for it what it really truly was, and the only way to truly obey it, etc...
Romans 13:8-10- "Owe no one anything except to love one another,
for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. For the commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not bear false witness,” “You shall not covet,” 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."
1 Corinthians 13- "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but
the greatest of these is love."
"And Love God (with your all), and Love your neighbor as yourself" (too many scripture references, etc)...
"Love your enemies"
"Love everyone"
"See it, be it, do it", etc...
And then you truly fulfill the law as it was meant to obeyed and/or fulfilled, etc...
Anyway,
God Bless!
