Yes so there are two Laws written on my heart and these Laws are best described 1 Cor. 13:4-13
Waht else is needed this is what Christ came to do for those that believe in Christ. So why all the self effort, when the selfeffort never worked for the first Chosen havinig to sacrifice year after year neve having their conscious's purged from sin
Hebrews 10:1[ Christ’s Sacrifice Once for All ] The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
Hebrews 10:2Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins.
So after Christ's sacrifice, and recieving the redemption should we not stop feeling guilty for our sins and turn tothe lioving God in thankfulness
Hebrews 10:2Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins.
Colossians 2:14having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross.

What was etched in stone has been inscribed on the tablets of our hearts.
This should change our attitute toward the commandments of Yahweh to obey by nature now, rather than to be slaves to what is in stone, also, if our nature is changed, so are we freed from the curse of the law, that is to say punishment and death.
It is now our joy to learn of Yeshua, and to obey His teachings. He loves all who obey the commandments of the Father.
He loves all, but His children obey Him because their nature is to do so.

those Laws of Moses were not taught to gentiles from the earliest times, if that is what you are trying to make that passage say.
Ephesians 2
Made Alive in Christ
1As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. 3All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesha and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath. 4But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, 7in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. 8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Jew and Gentile Reconciled Through Christ
11Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (which is done in the body by human hands)— 12remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

how is it that you percieve KI resist waht is written, Sister my conscious is clear, I am only here to get edified and edify whereever possible, So why do you think I do not believe, what is it that I have said against scripture? I am confused are you taking offense to my replies as if I am sayingyoudon't beleive? Forgive this wrong if this is the case thanks
Yeshua, Jesus, of the faith of Abraham could not be caught up in His words nor in His actions. He obeyed the Father to the end, that horrendous suffering on the cross for us all.
He is our Example, and He teaches us to learn of Him because His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Now, from this, one may determine if he should follow the Lord's Example or later teachings from people.
I now that once the law has been inscribed on the tablets of flesh, that is to say our hearts, our new nature is to obey the Father's will, and any of His commands for we all know the Father puts disobedience in the same place as He regards idolatry.
Jesus Christ came and He completed the law by affording all by His very Blood cleansing from the guilt of our sins, and with this constant grace we are freed from the curse of the law, that being punishment and ultimately death.
According to our Lord, anyone teaching against the least of these laws will be least in heaven.

Don't use God's laws "in a rote or ritual fashion." What a wonderful way to put it.
I think Christ said it, too, when he explained about the Sabbath. It is the law to rest on the Sabbath we know, but he explained that the law of love comes first, so if someone needs healing it comes first. He said the law of the Sabbath was given to us in love, "the Sabbath was made for man".

And? What does the comment mean? If Christ DIED ONCE for all. then why does anyone want to go back to law?
if the law states that sin can not be forgiven apart from the shedding of blood. And Christ fulfilled the law. Then if we sin today. what, other than the blood of Christ (which was shed 2000 years ago) could take away that sin?
People want to go back to law.. but take away the sacrifice. they are inseparable. either Christ died once to forgive ALL sin, or he did not. the choice is yours.
If we can still die because of sin, after it was already forgiven. Then Christ died for nothing. That is not opinion. it is fact!

Would you explain what you mean by not "go back to law?" Do you mean that obedience means not accepting grace and forgiveness? Does this include ignoring scripture that talks of law? I have always been bewildered by this phrase when people repeat it. From a scripture standpoint I understand it to mean that law points to sin that means death, but we have forgiveness and grace through Christ, but it has nothing to do with our need to be guided by law.
Let us talk common sense with a few interrogatives.
Is it going "back" to the law to honor our parents?
Is it going back to the law not to steal?
Is it going back to the law not to kill?
And continue with all the commandments..
It is not simply honoring God to obey His guidelines for decent behavior, it really is our nature to do his commandments and not just read them chisled into stone.
His laws have been taken from cold, consciousless stone and written on the tables of our hearts.
I do not believe you dishonor anyone you love, and it should not be taught to do so.
Our nature has been converted to do by it what is good, however the intent of the law, other than punishment and death, are still quite lively.
Anyone teaching against them is sorely in error.
Yahweh, God bless you now and forever in His light, in Yeshua, amen.

The Messiah Yahshua teaches us much and those forgiven and cleansed with His Blood will adhere to His Words for they give life.
Hebrews 9
Romans 6
Being made free to become servants of God.
I assure you the Messiah Yahshua did not come for "naught" .
Those that Keep the Commandments of God and have the Testimony of the Messiah are called saints.
If one is forgiven and cleansed they do not go back to that which made them guilty and dirty.

I do through his power, for it is God that does this in me and through me
I am crucified never the less I live, not by self but by the power of God who gave himself for me.
I am rested from my works and now have recieved God's works by Faith asw Abraham, Noah, Paul, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, James, and many other Saints in Christ did

Where have I not taught to believe and one will not do God's commnadments?
All I have said is by belief in the finished work of Christ one does what is in order and right by his grace as Paul so well pointed out
Galatians 2:20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
