You and I do not read the two chapters of Romans 2,3 the same way.
Paul is talking to the Jews and explaining the Jewish position, it is not about the Gentiles.
Romans 2:24
For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.
Paul is not talking to you. Your theology collapses because you misunderstood Romans.

Quite the contrary Cameron, if you follow and love Christ, you will want to follow him, do what he asks of us that is for one thing to follow the commandments he was teaching, you know this yourself as you told me twice you follow the commandments and you do well to do so. they are simple and not a burden but a blessing, they set us free from sin and set us apart as God's people.
Blessings.
Blessings.
I also told you not in the way you suspect. I have never gotten up in the morning and asked God to help me to keep the commandments. I have asked Him to keep me focused on Him, to keep me walking in His Spirit, to keep my mind and heart stayed upon Him. In short, that I would be consumed in and by Him. That my thoughts would be His thoughts. That my actions would reflect His glory.
This is very different than having my heart and mind stayed upon the law. I'm not talking to the law all day. I am trying to interact with God all day.

This is what you stated.
What you wrote is utterly wrong.
The 10 commandments (the law) does not set you free from sin.
The 10 commandments only grant you the knowledge of your sinfulness.
The 10 commandments do not grant any righteousness they only condemn.
The 10 commandments do not set you apart from anything.
The scripture never says the 10 commandments set you free from sin!!!

Mat 13:14 In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
Mat 13:15 For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’
