Photini said:
Follow His commandments.
Matt 5:3-12
Luke 6:20-36

those verse are OT and law verses which I believe but they are not for me or you to practice. TO GROW WE GOT TO BE FOLLOWING THE CORRECT COMMANDMENTS FOR US RIGHT NOW


John 1:17 For the law was given by moses, but thee grace and thee truth came by Jesus Christ

Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John; since that time the kingdom of God is preached and every man presseth into it.

WE HAVE A NEW AND GREATER COMMANDMENT

John 13:34-35 A new kind of commandment I give unto you, That ye love[agape] one another [gal 6:10]; as I [JC] have loved you[RO 5:8] that ye also love one another . 35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

One another is to fellow believers not unbelievers ...... John 14:15,21 15:9-10,13, Gal 6:10, 1john 2:15, 4:10,20-21, Gal 6:2

AGAPE LOVE-VS-BEING GOOD TOO SEE THE DIFFERENCE

Danger though two ways to walk by flesh and by spiritGalation 5:16 This I say then walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh

what happens to those who walk in the flesh

Gal 4:29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now

How do you walk in the Spirit

#1 must be saved
#2 must be in one POSTITION IN CHRIST
not carnal/flesh

DO YOU KNOW WHAT IN CHRIST TRUTH IS

Jesus was the Word incarnate.
In the Jewish mind, that meant he was the living Torah.
If you exclude the OT, I think you're asking for trouble.
Jesus was a Jew who knew the scriptures very well.
Regarding them, read Matt. 5:17-19.
You don't know who you are until you learn where you came from.
