The verb 'aren't' denotes a plural group rather than a singular entity - which is what the Ten Commandments was. You could have been clearer had you stated the Ten Commandments isn't a part of the new covenant. I know, I shouldn't be so picky...The Ten Commandments aren't part of the New Covenant.
We would once again be delighted to do so except it would only be thrown out and trampled like the trash. Frankly I'm very tired of the Bible being treated in such a manner.It is easy to disprove me. Just show me where God or Christ did away with any part of the law. Not man. Not a council. Not a pope. Christ or God.
If we're talking about covenants; God changed it.Who changed it: man or God. When did Christ ever say any of the law was done away with?
I'll wait.
You are very accusatory, telling me I am a faith I am not.
You still haven't shown me where Christ or God changed the law. Just deflection, assumptions and insults.
There isn't 1 single shred of evidence to be found in Holy Writ (Bible) to support your idea.Who said that?
The NC has a contractral stipulation that said the Law would be written on hearts, so that we delight in following it. What is that law?
And, did God or Christ change the law? Or, did man?
Forgive me. The rules of English caught me. While the Ten Commandments are a single unity they're also a plural in that there are 10 of them on the stone. As a unit they're not part of the New Covenant/Testament. Part of them are in fact part of the New Covenant in that sin was always sin (murder, theft, lying, adultery, etc.). The 4th however doesn't fit this category. The only aspect of the 7th day Sabbath in the New Testament is historical fact.The verb 'aren't' denotes a plural group rather than a singular entity - which is what the Ten Commandments was.

Because it is one of 10 commandments.
All right.Forgive me. The rules of English caught me. While the Ten Commandments are a single unity they're also a plural in that there are 10 of them on the stone.

In your dialog with me, you have not presented scriptures to prove your resolve. Asking for proof of change does not mean that Christian are under the law. Saying that God does not change, does not mean that God does not change how He deals with man.Except Christ, and god.
And I see you have no scripture. You know the verses I have quoted and paraphrased. The NC contract is with Israel. Since the common thought is the law is for Israel, what do you think you need to do t qualify? Re read the NC in Jeremiah and per Christ.
I'm done.
I'm done.
All right.
Just one other point I should make: Whenever someone quotes or refers to Exodus 20, remember that this is the oral declaration of the covenant from Mount Sinai. The minor differences between this account and Deuteronomy 5 suggests that Moses is reciting what was written onto the tablets of stone. The minor difference concerns the Sabbath, and the rendition of Deuteronomy 5:15 should be compared with Exodus 20:11. You can see that in each case a previous historical event is drawn on as the reason to ordain the Sabbath. This is never acknowledged by Adventists.
While Acts includes Gentiles in the covenant. Read it for yourself. Romans also shows the New Covenant includes the Gentiles. Several of the New Testament books are addressed specifically to the saints.Except Christ, and god.
