How do we love YHWH, Messiah, and others? Is it merely a good feeling in our hearts?In the law of love (Mt 22:37-40), which is the law of Christ ...
Oblique misrepresentation through omission of Ro 14:14, 20; 1Tim 4:4; Heb 9:10.Romans 14:14, 1 Corinthians 8:8, 1 Corinthians 10:25
The context of Romans 14 ...refers to meat sold of being contaminated or defiled by idols. Paul is stating that idols do not make meat unclean, as a Jew would consider it.
Are you sure about that?Correct.
The word koinos = uncommon and not unclean.
Talk about a biased, erroneous translation of a simple Greek word, to distort the passage.
Which explains why you don't understand the NT. . .because the self-evident absurdity of your rationale, addressed in the following, is not visible to you:No clue what you are talking about.
Well, according to that "logic,"
women transgressed the law when they didn't obey the laws related to the Levitical Priesthood and vice versa,
virgins transgressed the law when they didn't obey the laws related to marriage and parenting, and vice versa,
although Jesus was sinless (Jn 8:46), he transgressed the law when he didn't observe all the purification laws.
You betray the absurdity required to unseat the NT Word of God when it is not taken at its clear word.
What prophet or dreamer of dreams are you talking about here?. . .if ANY prophet comes and speaks or teaches ANYTHING against the commandments of God, that prophet is a false prophet, deserving DEATH!
I'm not the one who suggested Christ didn't fulfill the Law because he didn't observe the laws applying to women, parents, priests.Messiah observed EVERY SINGLE commandment that applied to Him.

The Apostle John answered this for us:
- Loving YHWH: For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 1Jn 5:3
- Loving others: By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 1Jn 5:2
All of them, to the best of our ability, as we are enabled, and when they apply to us in our capacity.
And in these verses you quoted: does it say these are the only commandments? Secondly, they say "love one another": what did John say about how we should "love one another"?That's what I thought. You go around telling people to you must keep the commandments, but really, as a New Covenant believer, you don't know which ones.
This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
These things I command you, that you love one another.

Jesus clarified that:Great word!
Please list the commandments we are to keep.

Did you need a written law to know what love means?And in these verses you quoted: does it say these are the only commandments? Secondly, they say "love one another": what did John say about how we should "love one another"?
Did you need a written law to know what love means?
You don't need a written law to know that, if you love someone , you will not steal from him, you will not kill him, you will not commit adultery with his spouse, you will not lust after his possessions, etc.
That's why the whole law is fulfilled by love alone (Ro 13:8-10), it doesn't need written regulations.
What part of the law of Christ, which is the law of God (1Co 9:21), do you not understand?
As long as I "believe in Jesus," it's ok for me to break the 10 commandments, correct?I only do what I see The Father do.
I say what I hear My Father say. Not keeping the 10 Commandments. They were clean because of the living Rhema word that Jesus spoke to them, NOT BECAUSE THEY KEEP THE 10 COMMANDMENTS. And so it is with us!
Then said Yehoshua unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things ... For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak ... Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.- Jn 8:28, Jn 12:49, Jn 14:10Christ's commands are the law of Christ (1Co 9:21; Gal 6:2) ... The law of Christ upholds the law of Moses (Ro 13:8-10), minus its curse on transgression of it (Dt 27:26).
Do I need a written law to understand that I should obey the Sabbath? Did Adam and Eve need a spoken law to understand that they should not eat from the Tree?Did you need a written law to know what love means? You don't need a written law to know that, if you love someone , you will not steal from him, you will not kill him, you will not commit adultery with his spouse, you will not lust after his possessions, etc.

Messiah's commandments are not to be distinguished from the Father's commandments. Messiah was the "mouth" of YHWH. Everything Messiah said, is to be considered the Words of YHWH.
