I never said there was no sin. Nor did I say there was no law, just no Old Testament law as a set of written rules. The law that we have is on our hearts and it is between us and God.
NT states that it is unchanged OT and NT.
New Covenant Jer 31:31-33 "Law of God written on the heart"
New Covenant Heb 8:6-13 -- unchanged from Jer 31:31-33 verbatim
Eph 6:2 the "first commandment with a promise" is the 5th commandment... still.
Matt 19 list from the Ten commandments ... Rom 13 list from the Ten commandments.. the same.
"What matters is keeping the Commandments of God" 1 Cor 7:19
Rom 13
9 For this,
“You shall not commit adultery,
You shall not murder,
You shall not steal,
You shall not covet,”
and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
Matt 19
if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments.” 18 Then he *said to Him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said,
“You shall not commit murder;
You shall not commit adultery;
You shall not steal;
You shall not bear false witness;
19 Honor your father and mother;
and You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
(Note: leaves out "you shall not covet" for the sake of the lesson He is about to teach the man)
We're not under "thou shalt not murder."
Note that quote is Jesus -- it is Jesus speaking
No, we are not even under the ten commandments
You have free will - you can believe what you wish.
as given to Moses. Jesus changed the law and gave new directives.
nope.. Matt 5 "do NOT think I have come to change the law"
Our commandment is 'don't even hate your brother.' which is a strengthening of the commandments not replacement of them - so then after Matt 5 "do not hate" we have Matt 19 "do not murder"... the one did not abolish the other
Keeping the sabbath is not part of Christ's law.
Yes ... it is.
"the Son of Man is LORD of the Sabbath" Mark 2:28
No wonder then that for all eternity after the cross "from Sabbath to Sabbath shall ALL mankind come before Me to worship" Is 66:23
"The seventh day is THE Sabbath of the LORD (YHWH)" Ex 20:10
Less man-made tradition... more scripture please.
Mark 7
7 ‘But in vain do they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
8 Neglecting the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men.”
9 He was also saying to them, “You are experts at setting aside the commandment of God in order to keep your tradition. 10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, is to be put to death’; 11 but you say, ‘If a man says to his father or his mother, whatever I have that would help you is Corban (that is to say, given to God),’ 12 you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or his mother; 13 thus invalidating the word of God by your tradition which you have handed down; and you do many things such as that.”
