So He came down, not as an expression of Love, but to simply give us more rules?
The Jews just weren't doing a good enough job, so He had to come down and show us how it's done?
Are you saying that you walk perfectly, as Jesus had, following the laws in perfect agreement?
There is no one righteous, not even one;
there is no one who understands;
there is no one who seeks God.
All have turned away,
they have together become worthless;
there is no one who does good,
not even one.
Their throats are open graves;
their tongues practice deceit.
The poison of vipers is on their lips.
Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.
Their feet are swift to shed blood;
ruin and misery mark their ways,
and the way of peace they do not know.f
There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in Gods sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin. - Romans 3: 10-20
Or, if you want to go more in-depth, we can look at Matthew 19.
Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?
Why do you ask me about what is good? Jesus replied. There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.
Jesus replied, You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.
All these I have kept, the young man said. What do I still lack?
Jesus answered, If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.
When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.
Then Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.
When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, Who then can be saved?
Jesus looked at them and said, With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
Now, do you think this man wasn't going to be saved? He was following the commandments and according to Jesus that still didn't make him worthy to enter the kingdom of God.
Then Jesus tells him to sell everything and the man couldn't.
Jesus says that a rich man cannot enter the kingdom of God and the disciples are astonished - and probably a little worried.
Then Jesus soothes them, He tells them, essentially, that there is nothing a person can do to get into the kingdom of God within their own power.
There was only one person that was and could be perfect and that was God Himself - to say differently is to call Him a liar and say that you can do what He did and no longer need a savior.
The Galatians church was beginning to fall to the mindset you carry and this is what Paul said to them.
You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh? Have you experienced so much in vainif it really was in vain? So again I ask, does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you by the works of the law, or by your believing what you heard? So also Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness."
