You have to understand that when th New Testament came in at Jesus death, Who brought in a new covenant, the old convent and Old Testament laws were abolished.
The Ten Commandments under the new covenant/New Testament is based on Love.
There is no scripture that says all the Old Testament laws has been abolished. That would make the greatest commandments- love to God Deuteronomy 6:5 and love to neighbor Lev 19:19 abolished and that's certainly not the case. Jesus clearly stated He did not come to destroy the law or prophets i.e. abolish Mat 5:17 and not to break or teach others to break
the least of the commandments quoting directly from the Ten. Mat 5:19-30
The Ten Commandments in the Old Covenant is based on love.
Exo 20:6 but showing mercy to thousands,
to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
Almost verbatim what Jesus repeated in the NT
John 14:15 If you love Me keep My commandments
You cannot hold on to an old contract when there is a new one.
Who said anyone is doing that. The agreement changed, not the laws Hebrews 8:10 Jer 31:33 as the New Agreement is based on better promises, not on better laws Hebrews 8:6 God's law is perfect Psa 19:7 is Truth Psa 119:151 and righteous Psa 119:172 can't change perfection/truth/righteousness and nowhere in scripture does it say the New Covenant is different laws and the teachings of Jesus and the apostles all clearly show the Ten Commandments has not changed as it is still the law that defines sin Romans 7:7 Mat 5:19-30 and our salvation is
from sin, not in sin Mat 1:21
This is the reason the saints that died under the Old Testament graves opened, and were resurrected immediately after Jesus’s resurrection. Jesus death was the end of the Old Testament.
You would need a verse for that one. There was a special resurrection but nothing about all saints and nothing about the Old Testament ending and can be deleted. Jesus and the apostles taught on the OT and NT tells us
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and
is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 2 Tim 3:16 so hard to make that case if we are to believe God's Word or Jesus:
Matthew 5:17 “
Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets.
I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
If Jesus came to abolish the law or prophets than we can just ignore chapters written by the Prophet Isaiah Ezekiel and Jeremiah to name a few and ignore prophecy about the Second Coming of Jesus and the New Heaven and New Earth
No, scripture does not delete scripture.
He was being in a new testaments, which came into full force at his death,
Hebrews 9:16-17
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
You cut off the context of this passage... this is about Christ now being our New Mediator which requires the shedding of blood, so Jesus Sacrificed Himself to be our Mediator and our High Priest so we can go directly to Him for the forgiveness of sin, instead of sacrificing animals.... Here let me bring in the context because its not about the Old Testament being deleted.
Hebrews 9:16 For where there
is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. 17 For a testament
is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives. 18 Therefore not even the first
covenant was dedicated without blood. 19 For when Moses had spoken every to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, 20 saying, “This
is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.” 21
Then likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry. 22
And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission. 23 Therefore
it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24 For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands,
which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us; 25
not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another— 26
He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. 27 And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, 28
so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.
Hebrews 10:1 For the law (law of Moses in sacrificing animals for sin),
having a shadow of the good things to come, and not the very image of the things,
can never with these same sacrifices, which they offer continually year by year, make those who approach perfect. 2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? For the worshipers, once [
a]purified, would have had no more consciousness of sins. 3 B
ut in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. 4
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins.
5 Therefore, when He came into the world, He said:
“Sacrifice and offering You did not desire,
But a body You have prepared for Me.
6 In burnt offerings and
sacrifices for sin
You had no pleasure.
7 Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come—
In the volume of the book it is written of Me—
To do Your will, O God.’ ”
8 Previously saying, “
Sacrifice and offering, burnt offerings, and offerings for sin You did not desire, nor had pleasure in them” (which are offered according to the law), 9 then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will, [
b]O God.” He takes away the first that He may establish the second. 10
By that will we have been [c]sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
This clearly shows the law that ended and always pointed to Jesus who became our Sacrificial Lamb for the forgiveness of sin. There are no sacrifices in the Ten Commandments, animal sacrifices was needed to forgive breaking God's Ten Commandments which is what sin is even in the NC 1 John 3:4 Romans 7:7 Mat 5:19-30. In the NC instead of sacrificing animals we can go directly to Jesus for the forgiveness of sin and sanctification, He is now our High Priest and Mediator is that not a better promise than the old sanctuary system for the forgiveness of sins?
Jesus is the testator who died and brought in the full force of the New Testament. The strength of the New Testament cancels the Old Testament.
The New Testament does not delete the Old Testament. This again goes against the very teachings of Jesus.
Matthew 5:17 “
Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets.
I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
Not everything in the OT has been fulfilled in scripture, would hate to delete something that was meant for us to learn about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
Hebrews 10:26
For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. 28
Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” [
g]says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
The NT is filled with references to the Old Testament, whoever is teaching you these things, they are leading you down the wrong path. And as Jesus warned breaking and teaching others to break the commandments has some consequences. Mat 5:19-30 Matthew 15:1-14 Jesus can't lie and it surprises me how many people gloss over the teachings of Jesus. Jesus not only died for the forgiveness and sanctification of sins, He lived to be our perfect example to follow. 1 John 2:6 1 Peter 2:21-22 Hebrews 4:15 How did Jesus live, did He keep the commandments and teach us to as well. He certainly did.
Before Jesus death, He explained the change in the Ten Commandments:
Matthew 22:37-40 KJV
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
The scripture says “on these two commandments hang all the laws and prophets.”
The law and prophets is the Word of God, which all of God's Word
hangs on love. The summary does not delete the details, nor does love to God, or love to man go undefined. It's more than just a feeling, it is a call to action and obedience to
(keeping) God's commandments.
1 John 5: 2
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and
keep His commandments. 3
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.
The change in the Ten Commandments is addressed in the gospel under the New Testament:
Romans 13:8 KJV
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
So you think this says we can love God but worship other gods, we can love God but bow to idols, we can love God, but profane His holy Sabbath, love God but vain His holy name. We can love neighbor, but steal, lie, commit adultery and covet but as long as we "love" God that is fulfilling His commandments. I think you have some grave misunderstandings of this passage,
It is explains further that following love in Romans 13:8 KJV, fulfills all the commandments. It is further explained in Romans 13:9 KJV, that love workers no ill to his neighbor, which is what Jesus is saying in Matthew 22:39 KJV, “…Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.”
You can’t ignore these scriptures.
Not ignoring anything, it just doesn't mean what you think it does, nor does it reconcile with the rest of the NT teachings. especially the very teachings of Jesus. Mat 15:3-9 Mat 5:19-30 Mat 19:17-19 John 15:10 John 14:15, Exo 20:6 Rev 14:12 Rev 22:14-15
