Why jew got 613 commandments, but christian got 10 only?

I won't bother covering ground that's already been covered in this forum right now, but I would point out that salvation was never through works. Abraham's righteousness was through faith, same with everyone in the OT.

We are born children of God, we have His seed in us, and my conviction is that we should cultivate that seed, and let everything else die. In truth, everything else is already dead, just is not accepting of that fact.

Divisions come when we place importance on doctrine and reasoning, and ignore our spiritual lives that are ours in the Holy Spirit, in Christ.

You attack or at least diminish doctrine and reasoning. Yet you don't seem to realize that you are using reasoning and you have your essential doctrines too. It's like you're sawing off the branch you're sitting on.

I guess Paul confronting Peter over the doctrine of the gospel was causing division and a bad thing?
