Delete one???? Every law God gave to Israel was deleted when the old covenant was replaced with the new. .
Until you read the New covenant
Jer 31:31-34 "I will make NEW COVENANT... this IS The covenant I will make... i will write my LAW on their heart and mind" -- quoted verbatim in Heb 8... unchanged.
This means that the moral law of God spoken at Sinai - known to Jeremiah and his readers - was written on the hear under the NEW covenant and that is how we can see Moses and Elijah, born again and standing WITH Christ in Matt 17 - in glory - even BEFORE the cross happens. (As has been pointed out 40 or 50 times so far - I think).
This means it is "STILL" a sin to take God's name in vain - yes... even in the NT - and "yes" even though no one in the NT quotes that command.
1 John 3:4-- even in the NT - SIN is STILL defined by God as "transgression of the LAW".
And the "ROYAL LAW of LOVE" in James 2 comes straight from the LAW of Moses.
1. Do not kill (James 2) - from Exodus 20
2. Love your neighbor as yourself from Lev 19:18
James 2 does not mention "Love God with all your heart" (Deut 6:5) nor does any NT writer when speaking of teaching after the cross - but Jesus mentions it in Matt 22 BEFORE the cross.
Bible details affirming the TEN for both OT and NT saints so glaringly obvious that even the majority of Sunday Bible-scholarship admits to it.
The point remains.
