I did not wish to give the impression or say I do not have thoughts, which according to our Savior, is the same as committing, but I have always been good about not maintaining them or carrying them out, so forgive me if I sounded as though I think I do not sin. My error in thought is not held against me though. Any "pecadillo" is always acknowledged immediately, so if that makes anyone understand better the op, I am happe. Yahweh bless all in Yeshua, amen.
shows who your saving faith?
anybody can live an externally moral life and go to church 7 days a week; serve on every committee and do everything to show their saving faith.
saving faith is a gift from God.
loving God is a gift from God.
Hebrews 12:2
Run with Perseverance
1Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Romans 5:5
Faith Brings Peace and Joy
4and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; 5and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Why are you fretting about laws that bound the OT saints? Law is broken down to different sections, the ten commandments is a moral law, you don't have to follow ceremonial, dietary, etc laws. You aren't even required to follow any law. But to have the moral law (commandments) even Jesus commandments should be observed for a Christian life right? Not a requirement, but a recommendation if you want to live in the likeness of the Lord through the Spirit. Law of moral.
Does everyone know we are all sinners?
Yet we have no sin because of grace, does eveyone know this?
And does everyone ignore the teachings of Yeshua about keeping the commandments. The most direct is the reference I have quoted many times from Revelation.
Do people ignore Revelation? Do they ignore the teaching of John on obeying commandments, or of our Lord, Himself?
How has this come into being? None were taught to disobey commandments in my formative years, and I attended several denominations under the umbrella name of Christianity.
The Ten Commandments were in many court rooms, though separation of church and state are against such practices.
When did this teaching that the commandments are not to be followed show up in Christian religions..........I say religions because by virtue of each's differences, they are different, and opposing.............

it does tells you how to live by them in two commandments,
And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.” Luke 10:27 NASB
By love you walk with God in the Spirit as a believer. By love you follow and do the works of good morals, teachings, and commandments of our Lord. God is love, God is Spirit, the Spirit must be love right? Judge for yourself. But I know what to believe.
