And because we love the LORD with all our heart, soul, mind = we still follow His 10 commandments. We don't follow them to be saved, we follow them because we're saved! 🙌🏻🥳🥰

“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.” Hebrews‬ ‭8‬:‭10‬

As someone who used to follow the wrong doctrines and became so bound by a religious spirit that it took God to literally fight to set me free, this is TRUE!

If you follow christ you will be destroyed...The new testament was authored by the Piso family.

Yeshua Jesus did not come to “change” the law or make it “go away”. He came to fulfill the law and help us clearly see that the Torah is all about Him. Yeshua said “ For if you really believed Moses, you would believe Me; because he wrote about Me. But if you don’t believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?” John 5:46-47. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He does not change. And Yeshua said “I and my Father are One” . Yeshua Jesus would not come to void what His Father spoke and firmly established . He made us realize how it all points to Him! (The Lamb at Passover is just one example out of numerous others) therefore what God said in the Old Testament (Torah) is still valid to this day. We have just fallen away as a body (Church) and forgotten who we really are. We’ve taken on traditions of man and forgotten The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Yeshua came to teach us to do as He did. And He followed the law because He IS the Law. Shalom to you and blessings.

When I said "Jesus changed everything” I am meaning that we are no longer obligated to follow the law because of the finished work He has already done on the cross. Jesus did not literally change the law but after His death and resurrection He changed how we worship and how we relate to God the Father. We now have a NEW mediator to restore our relationship with God. Thoughts on Romans 7:6 But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code."

I am so glad reading the comments! Amen Amen! YES! We have to keep the holy commandments, and the Sabbath is holy for eternity. Love your neighbourd like yourself and love God = a resume of the 10 commandments. The catholic church changed our only worship day (saturday the 7th day of the week, our resting day with the Lord), to a day that God didnt choose, man chose it (you can google it, its a known, historical, fact). If we love God we will keep his holy commandments because he gave them to us to protect us. I am not saying it's easy but we can and will with the help of the holy spirit. I pray you guys will look deeper into it for it is trully a blessing. God bless you

Great question! Here are some scriptures we can turn to: - In Mark 7:18-19 Jesus shares with His disciples that all foods are clean - In Acts 10:9-16 God declares to Peter that any food that was previously UNCLEAN is now CLEAN - Hebrews 10:1-18 and Hebrews 7:26-27 shows that Jesus is the ONCE and FOR ALL Sacrifice - meaning that we are no longer obligated to continue to follow the OT sacrificial laws (if we did then what was Jesus' death sufficient for?) - Hebrews 10:19 says, we now "have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus” and this is INCREDIBLE because in the Old Testament law this is completely forbidden except for the high priest! A quote from Timothy Keller: "the coming of Christ changed how we worship, but not how we live. The moral law outlines God’s own character - his integrity, love and faithfulness. Old Testament commandments about loving our neighbor, caring for the poor, being generous with our possessions and being committed to family still apply. The New Testament continues to forbid killing and adultery, and the sexual ethic of the Old Testament is restated throughout the New Testament." Yes - Jesus came to FUFILL the law for us because we in ourselves could not! But we are still to love God and love people as Jesus commands in Mark 12:30-31: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’[ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.” - Matt. 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the "Law" or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." We do this NOT for our salvation but to GLORIFY GOD: Galatians 2:16 "nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified."

Mark 7 in context is about eating with unwashed hands, not about which animals are clean and unclean. And in Acts 10, the context is that Jews and Gentiles can both come to Jesus. It has nothing to do with actual animals. If it did, I’m sure we would read about Peter telling everyone how God showed them that they can eat all meat, but he didn’t.

It doesn’t say why certain meat is unclean, but scientifically, they are scavengers and eat dead animals. Shellfish and shrimp are bottom feeders and eat scum. Shrimp has mercury in it as well. It’s not ok to eat just because we cook it and try to get all the toxins out. God says NOT to eat them or even touch their carcass if we can help it. So shouldn’t be obey? He gives us instructions to set us apart from the world. To make us holy. And the dietary instructions are included. Think of this also….unclean meat wasn’t allowed into the Temple. Today, we are the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Why would it be ok to consume unclean meat into our body, where the Holy Spirit resides?

If & when Jesus changed anything ... where in Scripture does it say this please? Ty so much. Jesus said, follow me (God's ways), not man's ways. Jesus followed God's Ways, Laws, Torah & Sabbath.

So the commandments hang on two which is love the Lord your God and love you neighbour and the Ten Commandments show us practically what that looks like!

The Catholic Church combined the Sabbath and the Lord’s Day (Resurrection Day) into a single day. The biblical sabbath is on Saturday, whereas Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday morning. Church services are held on Sunday because they determined worship should be held on Resurrection Day. It’s not wrong to observe the combined Sabbath/Lord’s Day, but they were originally separate days. Therefore, I rest on Saturday and worship with my church on Sunday. We can gather and worship the Lord on any day of the week, but I find a lot of joy in setting aside one day to rest in the Lord and another day to celebrate His resurrection.

No where in Scripture does it say the Old Covenant is abolished. Jesus spoke about keeping the Commandments from Exodus 20. 1John5 tells us His Commandments are not burdensome and if we love Him, we keep His laws-His Commandments. And Paul in Acts 21:24 we see Paul keeping the law. Romans 7:12 says the Law is holy, just and good.The law is necessary to enlighten our insufficiency, and deficiency. It exposes our imperfections and proves to us how unable we are to meet God's standards.We see how desperately we need our Savior Jesus.We no longer have need for the Ceremonial laws-Jesus fulfilled them. But if you're going to ignore God's law, you in effect are referring to removing the first 5 books of the Bible -The Torah. Good luck with that.

Thank you Ashley and mentor mama for the video. However, I disagree with what you say. The only rule that was abolished was the ceremonial laws (feasts, priesthood, sacrifice, etc ...) because Jesus has fulfilled the work already on the cross. But all the commands from old testament are still valid and complement perfectly the new testament commands. Follower of Christ are ought to be set apart and follow the commands to live clean and holy life just as people from the old testament. Pork is unclean animal. We should read the whole chapter to understand the context (Mar 7: 18-19) It doesn't talk about food, even Peter knew that it was unclean to eat it so he said that, plus he didn't eat it even in his vision, later on he understood it was about the gentiles and jews considered clean and unclean people and it tells how God doesn't discriminate people. It was not about food at all. You may check this YT link as well for more explanation backed up with bible verse : kzread.info/dash/bejne/gHWstpKficetgJc.html Thank you and may God bless us as we seek to know the truth from His word.

So many of the comments below seem to come from people who believe Christians are ought to obey the OT laws (specifically the 10 commandments). I also had the same belief as a former Seventh Day Adventist. I would say the same arguments in favor of keep the 10 commandments and I genuinely didn’t understand why other Christians didn’t keep the 4th one.. But only when I started reading what the new testament says about the old one, I could see that new covenant believers are no longer bound to the 10 commandments and the rest of the OT laws. I would highly recommend reading Galatians (especially chapters 3 and 4), Romans 7:1-6, Hebrews 8. The Bible says that going back to the old covenant laws is spiritual adulatory - we can’t embrace Jesus and the law at the same time. Jesus came to fulfill the law and bring something better. We no longer have to live under the bondage of keeping OT laws but instead walk in the Spirit. OT Jews did not have Holy Spirit living in them like New Covenant believers do. Jesus’s death and resurrection changed everything - and we can rejoice in that. ☺️ Regarding the observance of Sabbath - Romans 14:1-6. We have freedom to observe a day for the Lord but saying that if someone doesn’t keep the Sabbath, they will receive the mark of the beast (in Revelation) is simply not in the Bible. Unbelievers will receive the mark of the beast but not Christians going to church on Sunday. And just to note - I don’t believe I’m keeping Sunday by going to church in that day 🙂 It’s simply a day when Jesus was resurrected and when believers gather to worship. It’s not a new Sabbath or changed from Saturday to Sunday. Colossians 2:16-17 says that “Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.” These are a shadow but the reality is found in Christ - by holding onto the shadows, we miss the real thing.

For the New Covenant believers, there are guidelines all over the New Testament books about how to live and love God and others. Can for example being patient or self-controlled be fully explained within the 10 commandments? It is not just don’t muder or don’t steal, it’s so much more - in our every day lives when we are led by the Holy Spirit, He tells us when and how to be patient and self-controlled. It’s all the process of santification and cannot be summarized into 10 commandments. Holy Spirit convicts us and leads us how to live a holy life - what we need to do is to abide in Jesus by reading His word. He renews our mind, our desires, our behaviour. It is a mystery how God works in a believer but He does. We can see it in the fruit of that person which is so much more than just law keeping. I’ve heard somewhere that legalism is a short cut to holiness and it really is.. As an SDA I believed that by keeping the 10 commandments I was pleasing God, but Jesus calls us to a higher level of morality. Not just don’t kill but don’t be angry at your brother. Jesus Himself said: “You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder, and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’ But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬-‭22‬, ‭27‬-‭28‬ This complete change of heart is not possible by keeping the 10, only by the divine power of Spirit Himself.

I am a former SDA as well and I'm so happy to see your comment. Thank you for sharing this. In addition to the texts you mentioned regarding the Sabbath, I'd love to add Hebrews 4 that give us a fuller meaning of Sabbath in the new covenant as resting in the finished work of Christ on the cross. Verses 9-11 say "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience." The Sabbath is so much more than just keeping a day and we have the liberty to choose whatever day we worship in Christ. If we seek to be saved by keeping the sabbath by striving to keep any other OT laws we have missed the point (Galatians 5). The purpose of the law was to point us to Christ . Galatians 3:24-26 "So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith."

Where does it say that pork is no longer an abomination, that it's no longer unclean?

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:17-20 King James Version 7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. Psalm 19:7 King James Version 12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Romans 7:12 King James Version Dear sister the law was given to show us , how holy Abba God Jesus Christ is and that we need a saviour , the law is a mirror to show us that we are sinners , By the Grace & the love of Abba God Yahweh , Abba God Jesus Christ , Abba God Holy Spirit we can keep the law , not by our strength but by his Spirit !!!!!!!!

And as for paying tithing? And celebrating the official Biblical Feasts? Do we still have to do that? I don't mean Christmas or Easter, because those are originally Pagan festivals. But the Biblical feasts from Levitivus 23. In a New Testament way? And baptism? Is that still in force? And the Sabbath? That was the fourth commandment of the 10 commandments. I mean the Sabbath on Saturday. Not what the Church has made of it by shifting it to Sunday. I really struggle with these things. Paul is not clear. He seems to contradict himself.

But in the Bible it says he did not come to change the law!

It sounds confusing. Did the question of following the old testament get answered? Is it a yes or no.?

I found a church

Hebrews 10:26-31 New International Version 26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, 27 but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God. 28 Anyone who rejected the law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much more severely do you think someone deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified them, and who has insulted the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,”[a] and again, “The Lord will judge his people.”[b] 31 It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

The bible says keeping the commandments is the love of God. They aren't done away with. This is so wrong! Resting is not the way to enter into the straight and narrow gate. People watching this please don't kick back and rest. Run the race that is set before you. And prove all things! This is very lukewarm and false. His commandments aren't burdensome. They are liberty.

Good answer!!

The whole Bible is what I live by, it’s not hard. Why believe you only now have to abide by the New Testament?

❤ God's word doesn't change. It's the same yesterday, today & tomorrow. ✝️ 🇮🇱 🕎 Jesus followed the Torah & kept Sabbath Holy, if it's good enough for Him, it's good for me as a believer. We are Messianic (born-again) believers & follow Torah. ie; God's food laws (instructions-Lev. Ch. 11). & keep Sabbath (Saturday) (set-apart) Holy. People seemed to miss The 4th Commandment. 🤷‍♀️🤔😁🥰 Matt. 5:17 "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill." Matt. 5:18 "For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished."

We are Israel. Messiah comes for the lost sheep of the house of Israel. We are the seed of the promise of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. We are to keep the Torah. Eating clean, keeping the feast days, and Shabbat. Messiah is in it all. Messiah kept the law and feast days. So did Paul. Shalom ladies pray Yah shows truth more in theses last days. Obedience is better than sacrifice. Obedience is obeying Yahs ways and sin is transgression of the law. There’s so much I can share. Really comes down to allowing the ruach “holy spirit” to be our teacher and forget what man made doctrine taught about the scripture. Starts with reading the whole word from beginning to end. Learning the Hebrew and asking Yah for truth. We must walk out our salvation with fear and trembling. People thinking we can eat the unclean, celebrate pagan holidays not founded in the word, and worship the creator on the wrong day Sunday… really goes against the words of God. Therefore do we really love God? Do we really love him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength? I see messiah keeping His fathers commandments and feast days. Thankful he died on the cross for my sins. Repentance is turning back to the fathers ways. Forsaking our sinful nature and knowing His ways are freedom not burdensome. The deception is so real. We are called to live in ruach and truth. Many are called but few are chosen. Shalom.

Matthew 5:17 states that Jesus did not come to abolish the law and the prophets.

❤ IMO, as I understand it ... It's the Old & New "Testament", not old & new "Covenant". The New Testament is the enhancement of the Old Testament - Fulfillment of the Old Testament. (Tanak & Torah) Tanak=Old Testament Torah=First 5 books of Bible. Torah-means teaching, also translated = "Law". JESUS said ... in Matt. 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the "Law" or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." The ceremonial laws will be fulfilled when Jesus comes back at the Temple. If I understand it correctly. Matt. 5:18 "For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished." Blessings & understanding to all. 💕

Eating pork was a health law. It was not part of the sacrificial system that was fulfilled when Jesus died. I guess you are saying we are not bound by the 10 commandments now?

I love you guys and I been watching you for years but I think I may have to disagree with you on this one. In a previous comment you referred to Acts 10 as OK to eat pork, But that is not what Acts 10 is about, its about God telling Peter that Gentiles are clean. Read the whole chapter, its about Cornelius. He was a gentile who followed Gods law. Righteous in God's sight (because he followed Gods law). He told Cornelius to send 2 ppl to where Peter was staying. Peter has the vision of animals on a sheet. God told him to eat. Now Peter will no way eat because he KNEW that God already said not to eat. When Jesus was on earth he did not teach against the law. He did not teach to eat unclean meat. So this left Peter confused. See a Jew would NEVER go into a Gentiles Home. No way. It was unclean. Never. So when they knocked at his door God told Peter to go with them. Can you imagine? How scared, confused Peter must have been. He head game going on in his head on his way there...wow. When he gets to Cornelius' house he sees that Cornelius is following Gods law and is righteous and is not a Jew. Then He know...Gentiles are accepted by God also. Its sad because its one of the most amazing stories about Gentiles being included in the kingdom and we reduced it to meat. If sin is transgression of the law, what law are they talking about? Gods law. Its a slippery slope because people can easily replace Jesus' sacrifice with the law. But we cant do the law. Thats why Jesus came - NOT TO SAVE US FROM THE LAW - PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT. ITS TO SAVE US FROM THE curse OF THE LAW. DEATH. I follow Jesus and I do my very best to follow Torah. But I suck at it sometimes. I do sabbath on Friday to Saturday and I had to LEARN to rest and its amazing because God shows up and shows out with me. Its personal and intimate. I also do the feasts which are amazing and fun and God comes and spends time with me. More than any other time. They are special. Most of the law is pretty easy to follow but people get hung up on sabbath and feasts and meat. Doesnt that sound crazy? This is not a salvation issue at all. Nope. Nada. Its a deeper relationship with God. We dont have to follow Torah. We get to. Thank you Jesus because now there is no Jew and no Gentile. We are One in Messiah. God is still the same tho...today, yesterday and forever. XOXO

God is the same today, tomorrow, and always! I think people are missing the point! The laws in the old Testament were meant to be followed in order for men/sinners to be cleansed and saved from sin/death! Jesus came and paid the sin for us! Jesus followed the OT laws, while ministering, because he was perfectly clean from sin! Once He died he took away the need to follow the old rituals because we are now clean! We can not earn our way into heaven! We have to truly believe that Jesus is our savior and paid all our debt! We are to find rest in Jesus everyday! Jesus is our Sabbath everyday!

For all those in the comments who are trying to justify Mosaic law keeping, I used to be in a Hebrew Roots cult too. Jesus rescued me and my family out of it. Sabbath Day keeping was one of the worst strongholds the devil used to keep us in bondage, but he used the other laws too. Mosaic law keeping causes great anxiety, but faith in Jesus gives peace. Many who come out of a cult need to see an exit counsellor to help deprogram them and help them deal with the abuse they suffered, especially if they were in a cult from a young age. If you are looking to exit a Hebrew Roots cult, it can be done, but it will take total trust in Jesus to completely free you from the guilt and fear. Understanding God's word will break the stronghold satan has over you. Mosaic law keeping and faith in Jesus Christ are not the same and should not be combined. Combining the two shows an ignorance between old and new covenants. For we which have believed in Christ Jesus do enter into rest, but Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace. Those of us who have believed do not have to remember the Sabbath, because Jesus has given us rest from the laws of Moses. Those who believe the gospel keep the law of Christ. Scripture should always be read as a whole and in context. To rightly divide God’s word is to understand that God’s people went from the old covenant to the new covenant. The old had the law of Moses, the new has the law of Christ. We are not lawless, the law of Christ commands us to believe on Jesus Christ for salvation and to love God, love our neighbour, love the brethren, even love our enemies, herein is our faith made perfect. But it’s a choice. If we do not love, then we don’t have saving faith, as God’s word says. If we love the world, the love of God isn’t in us; if we hate our brother, then it’s the same as hating God. In loving the world and hating our brother, we show that we do not have a saving faith. I love the book of first John. It’s very clear that faith without love (obeying Jesus) is not a saving faith. The book of James, and Peter, and Paul all say the same. 1 John 3: 23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. If we believe Jesus then we'll obey him. He has already fulfilled the sabbath day ceremonial law and gave rest to all who put their trust in him. For love is the fulfilling of the law. Sabbatarians think to change times and seasons by going back under the bondage of the law of Moses, instead of accepting the freedom Jesus purchased for us by his own blood. Galatians 4: 21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law? 22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. 24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. 25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. 26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. 27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband. 28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. 29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. 31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free. Lastly, it is not sabbath keeping that is the mark of a true believer, but the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Don't keep Saturn-day nor Sun-day, but believe on Christ today and every day and walk ye in him: this is what God's word is saying: the day of salvation has come: it's not a day of the week, it's Jesus! He's your salvation, if you have believed on him. If you have believed on Christ, love him by keeping the law of faith, not the law of works. For we which have believed do enter into rest.

"Mosaic law keeping and faith in Jesus Christ are not the same and should not be combined.

It's messed my mind up to where I get confused as to what God's message is to me sometimes. I can't tell if He's upset with me or loving sometimes. Reading both the Old and new testaments in the same bible study really confused me beyond what it should be I need to stick with the new testament. Jesus did everything He could do for all of us. Jesus moved on from that and so should I

Not according to scripture; Because if you follow the Mosaic law that God gave to the Israelites and that Jesus fulfilled on the cross; then Christ died in vain. Gal. 2:21 …if righteousness come by the law then Christ died in vain. John 1:17 the law was given by Moses but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Romans 6:14 …for we are not under the law but under grace. And there are so many more scriptures that prove we are not to follow a law that was given to the Israelites. But that doesn’t take away the fact that Jesus is our example and we are to live our lives or behave in a godly manner. Romans 15:4 says what was written before was written for our learning not our living. Also Hebrews 7-10 explains how Jesus Christ came and brought in a new covenant/ testament. Good question

Hello everyone just felt lead to share these 2 verses in The Book Of Revelations: Mind everyone,,,,, " that's the very last book in our know History concerning humanity! Revelations Chapter 12: 16 reads: And the dragon was worth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ....! Revelation Chapter 14: 12 reads: Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God,and the faith of Jesus.

Before Torah was given, God told Noah in Genisis 9:2 "All the animals of the earth, all the birds of the sky, all the small animals that scurry along the ground, and all the fish in the sea will look on you with fear and terror. I have placed them in your power. I have given them to you for food, just as I have given you grain and vegetables"

Who is the New Covenant with? It's sad you don't realize that your telling people to disobey their Creator while at the same time saying he is your God.

Why don't you girls drink coffee in your videos? It's in the name

More Scripture we can turn to: - In Mark 7:18-19 Jesus shares with His disciples that all foods are clean - In Acts 10:9-16 God declares to Peter that any food that was previously UNCLEAN is now CLEAN - Hebrews 10:1-18 and Hebrews 7:26-27 shows that Jesus is the ONCE and FOR ALL Sacrifice - meaning that we are no longer obligated to continue to follow the OT sacrificial laws (if we did then what was Jesus' death sufficient for?) - Hebrews 10:19 says, we now "have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus” and this is INCREDIBLE because in the Old Testament law this is completely forbidden except for the high priest! A quote from Timothy Keller: "the coming of Christ changed how we worship, but not how we live. The moral law outlines God’s own character - his integrity, love and faithfulness. Old Testament commandments about loving our neighbor, caring for the poor, being generous with our possessions and being committed to family still apply. The New Testament continues to forbid killing and adultery, and the sexual ethic of the Old Testament is restated throughout the New Testament." Jesus came to FUFILL the law for us because we in ourselves could not! But we are still to love God and love people as Jesus commands in Mark 12:30-31: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.” - Matt. 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the "Law" or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." We do this NOT for our salvation but to GLORIFY GOD: Galatians 2:16 "nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the Law; since by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified." NEW COVENANT: Hebrews 9:15 - Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. Luke 22:20 - And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. Hebrews 8:13 - In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. Jeremiah 31:33 - For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

I hate to say it, but for me personally, the New Testament is SO much easier for me to understand and comprehend compared to the old testament. Old Testament goes so far over my head sometimes :/

I am currently a Pentecostal and I follow this not cutting hair, no makeup or pants etc, and I do not see it as legalism. I see it as trying to live a holy life apart from the things of this world to get closer to God, because I do not follow a religion but a relationship with God. The word says that without holiness and peace with all, it is impossible to please God and that we must not conform to this world. How can I be different if I look just like every other person here who wears pants and makeup etc. BUT everyone has their own relationship with God and serves Him in their own way, so how I serve Him may not look like how others serve Him. My only advice is to pray, and if you feel guilty about it that might be the Holy Spirit convicting you because He is the one that guides us. My Pastors always tell me that the more I let go of things in this world, the closer I will get to God and I truly do see this in my life. He says we must deny ourselves daily and pick up our cross and follow Him. God bless you my sisters, we are all just trying to serve a holy and righteous God and we must allow the Holy Spirit to guide us. 💜

No, read the OT. That god is psychotic. At least Jesus makes sense and has a good message.

Short answer: no Long answer: if we pick and choose which laws of the OT to follow and which not, the bible as a while becomes useless

Only the ten commands that God gave Moses. Much of what is written are rules made by faricees.

Modern christianity is false. Here's why: Biblical redemption was ONLY from the curse of the old covenant law. That law was ONLY given to old Covenant Israel and has not existed for nearly two thousand years. No one alive today was ever under that law or its curse. The law was never your schoolmaster. You were not kept under the law. Did Christ redeem you from the curse of the law that Paul is referring to in Galatians 3? Impossible.

You've NEVER committed any transgressions under the old covenant. Haha

Yes I feel like we should because it's in the Bible and if we can let's try because some of the things we can't avoid due to our daily lives we try to obey the Bible as best as we can and some of the old laws
