Paul never lied as we know more we have a lack of understanding i think, i think knowing in what order he wrote his writting might help us see or read it better, after all even 20 years or more after christ paul never denied his jewish upbringing or who he was, even to the point of still going to the temple.

The real issue you people have is with the Sabbath of the Lord. I can mention any of the other nine commandments and you will agree But, as soon as the Sabbath of the Lord is mentioned you people start to argue and debate.
The fact that you people argue so much against the Sabbath of the Lord shows the conviction of the Holy Spirit on you people.

To the hews I become like a Jew to win the Jews. To those under the law I become like ons under the law( though I myself am not under the law) so as to win those under the law.
To those not having the law I became like one not having the law(though I am not free from Gods law but am under Christs law gal6:2) so as to win those not having the law
To the weak I became weak to win the weak.
I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some
1cor9:20-22

That is true I agree with that. Notice also the commandments of God were on two tables of stone.
*Exodus 31:18 KJV*
And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
Why two tables why not one? Because the commandments can be divided into commandments for God the first four and the next six is to our fellow man.

As you written what you have.
I have been to two churches on a Saturday. In one of them a woman enthusiastically shouted amen if the minister said something she approved of. She avoided unclean foods, alcohol and tithed get money. She also had multiple affairs. Three people I knew in Tha church took the lords name in vain, laughing as they did so. A woman who led the service often before the minister spoke was sleeping with her boyfriend. They all insisted the ten commandments must be followed
In a second church I went to on a Saturday a woman in the choir was having multiple affairs while insisting the ten commandments were followed
I have never seen such flagrant sin in my life in any other church I have been to
The literal letter does not convict of sin to anywhere near the degree the holy spirit does

Not only that, but by attempting to keep the ten commandments or any of the law, it is trying to obtain salvation by one's own efforts, instead of trusting in Christ who met the righteous requirements of the law perfectly on our behalf. We are under a new covenant in the shed blood of Christ, not the following of the written code. We obey all of those things through the obedience that comes through faith in Christ and not by placing ourselves under the law that, though it being righteous and holy, it became to us a curse because we couldn't keep it, which Christ rescued us from, by fulfilling it on our behalf and bringing it to its fulfillment.
Our focus should not be on the law or on our own efforts as a means for salvation, but on Christ and what he accomplished for all believers on the cross. The provision for salvation is a done deal, for Christ alone purchased mankind for God. The believers' part is having faith in the One who provided it, instead of trying to earn it.

The bible is from the holy spirit it is the word of God that isn't just a nickname for the bible it means it is the literal word of God himself. It is impossible to hold the holy spirit above the bible because they are one and the same and he will lead you to the bible. I am a witness to the power and the love of God that flows through those pages so I can tell you that the holy spirit is very much alive and active within that book
Christ destroyed satan's power to accuse GOD's people.
Now the sting of death [is] sin, and the power of sin [is] the law. 1 Corinthians 15:56
Wherefore, my brethren, you have become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, [even] to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. Romans 7:4
And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying, “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, the one who accuses them before our God day and night [of not keeping the law]. Revelation 12:10

I am sure some do as they have been taught to pay homage to statues and such, but we are really only suppose to worship
our Creator God.
I know tourist and I mistakenly went to a Hindu Temple thinking it was another church, but I said we are on a mission from God evidently He wanted us here today. We went in and there were lots of statues representing their deity's. We asked what we were suppose to do and the older gentleman in there said to go bow and pray. Well we did but we were praying to our God and not the statues in front of us and before we left I felt impressed to give a donation to his temple and passed on booklets about salvation and Jesus second coming....as we left I saw the older gentleman reading what I had given him. We won't know until the kingdom if we see him there... but it was such a neat experience and a chance to share the gospel. That is what Jesus asks us to do.

Hebrews chapters 2-4 speaks on this of our rest is in Him.
I never said only some of the 10 are kept, but Jesus and the NT scriptures show that how they are observed is different then in the written ordinance form of the OT.
No not all of the Mosaic law was considered the moral law.
In order to understand the law we need to do study in Jewish history.
The law was separated by moral, dietary, temple, and such. Only the 10 were considered the moral.
