The 10 Commandments of the OT are not void.
However, the works of the law are. Things like circumcision is no longer an ordinance. The works of the law have been nailed to the cross.
Romans 13:8-10 and Matthew 5:17-18 are very clear and very revelant in our lives today in this NT age.
There is no clash between the OT and the NT. Both of these halves of the Bible point straight to Jesus.
Ephesians 6:1-3 is also plain in implying that the law is still in effect today.
The First Commandment of God from the OT is still in effect today (Matthew 22:36-40).

Read the verses I referrenced to here before you reply if you are going to tell me that the law is no longer existant in a Christian's life.

The law Paul was referring in the NT was about the ordinances (works) of it. There is no works by which we are saved. Jesus is how we are saved, and by living and walking as Jesus did, we will fulfill the law. We're not doers of the law, we're keepers of it through loving God first and loving people second. Does that make sense?

The works of the law are indeed void as per helping our Salvation, Jesus Christ, in saving our souls. No man has the price for his own soul.

Now Jesus Christ teaches us in Word and in deed how we are to obey the Father.

Once more, where grace may be given, the law is not. For instance, Jesus teaches us you have heardd an eye for an eye, but this law is replaced by grace for He instructs us if we are struck on the one cheek to turn the other. He demonstratetes the law for stoning to death one caught in the act of adultery by His personal mediation for her again is replaced by grace. So it is for any child of God, for Jesus requires mercy and not sacrifice. Meditate on this please.

Jesus Christ, again, teaches nothing by entering the body can corrupt it, but that which proceeds from the heart will dorrupt any soul if it is evil. So all foods are clean as long as they are blessed by thanksgiving.

There can be no laws of sacrifice, for there is only One Sacrifice for sin, Jesus Christ, amen.

None of the laws of the Temple can be followed today for we are not only the priests of the Gospel, but we are living stones of the Temple, with our blessed Jesus Christ as the Chief and the Corner Stone. This last is most worthy of meditation in view of what Jesus Christ answered His disciples when they remarked how beautiful the Temple was. He will rebuild the Temple, for there is not one stone left upon the other today.

Those who teach against the commandments of Jesus Christ, and they all are HIs, will suffer being least in the Kingdom, and those who are indeed lawless will suffer the consequences come Christ's Day. God bless all in Jesus Christ, amen.
