Is this your excuse for condemning God for giving the law? That by trying to follow the kingdom of God, as scripture explains it, if I ever slip up and sin while I am trying I am making a mockery because I was trying? That makes a mockery of the Lord's Prayer when we ask for the kingdom to be on earth as it is in heaven, and then say we don't want the kingdom on earth.

please find this commandment in the mosaic covenant: 'love one another'
John 15
10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

That verse was quoted right before I posted. I thought it best to quote more. Of course being redundant isn't bad when quoting scripture. See post 200 where verse 14 was already quoted, then 202, and of course 203, I don't thing Jesus was killed with His own Fathers ordinances. He was crucified with sin, and the doctrines of men, Not God's. Full quote needed.

Colossians 2:13-15 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; (14)Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
v14 speaks of 'handwriting of ordinances' against and contrary to us...a clear reference to the Mosaic regulations not human traditions.
These, Christ put away in His crucifixion.

precisely. i hardly think the oral torah applies here.
having forgiven you all trespasses; (14)Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross.
Christ delivered over to blot out sin due to breaking pharisee regulations? just when you think you've heard everything.

Since red didn't respond to this post I assume she has me on ignore. Perhaps someone can quote this so she can tell us what it means.
red you want to twist Galatians to suit your purpose, what are you going to do with Hebrews?
Explain Hebrews, red: "But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord."
