Review your post #1993, ninth paragraph.
Hilarious.
So I am promoting the levitical priesthood because I said:
"Try breaking Leviticus 19:17 and still be loving your neighbor according to Messiah."
The next verse was quoted by Yahshua as the 2nd greatest commandment:
Mattithyah 22:39-40, "And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."
Leviticus 19:18, "Do not seek revenge nor bear a grudge against one of your own people;
but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am Yahweh."
Do you not uunderstand the there is still a priesthood? The ordinances of the priesthood have not been abolished but have been transferred to Yahshua, a eternal priesthood after the order of the malak zadiq.
Sounds like you disagree with the Messiah not just me.
And out of that post that was your rebuttal, telling.
I stand on all Scripture, no mistranslations or misunderstands but all Scripture.
Yess Matt 22:40 is awesome!
And we have gone through this many times, it dosent blot out all commandment, Shaul makes this clear in Romans 13.
Yahshua says these are the greatest Commandments, NOT THE ONLY! If that werent enough He clearly states all the Law hang on these 2.
Mattithyah 22:37-40, "Yahshua said to him: You must love Yahweh your Father with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."
Shaul clearly understands what the Messiah means and explains it here:
Romans 13:9, "For the commandments: You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not bring false testimony, You shall not covet, and all other commandments are briefly summed up in these Laws; namely: You must love your neighbor as yourself."
All as in even the ones he didn't list...
Try breaking Leviticus 19:17 and still be loving your neighbor according to Messiah.
And try breaking the 4th Commandment and still be loving Yahweh.
Exodus 20:6, "But showing love to thousands who love Me by keeping My Laws."
Deuteronomy 10:12-13, "And now, O Israyl, what does Yahweh your Father require of you, but to reverence Yahweh your Father by walking in all His ways, by loving Him, by serving Yahweh your Father with all your heart, and with all your soul. By keeping the Laws of Yahweh, with His statutes, which I command you this day, so that you may be blessed?"
1 Yahchanan 5:2-3, "By this we know that we love the children of Yahweh: When we love Yahweh by keeping His Laws. For this is the love of Yahweh: That we keep His Law, and His Law is not grievous."
Mattithyah 22:37, "Yahshua said to him: You must love Yahweh your Father with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might."
1 Corinthians 2:9, "But as it is written: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the mind of man the things which Yahweh has prepared for those who love Him."
Mattithyah 19:16-17, "And behold, one came to Him, and said; Teacher, what righteous thing may I do, so that I may have eternal life? But He said to him: Why do you question Me about righteousness? There is only One Who is the standard of perfection, and that is Yahweh; so if you would enter into life, keep the
Laws of Yahweh."

Lets not lie to ourselves, Messiah clearly said a vital component to eternal life is following Yahweh's Laws. (or Commandments if you are stuck on mainstream traditional translation)
Revelation 14:12, "In this manner are the saints purified--by keeping the Laws of Yahweh, in conformity with the faith in Yahshua Messiah."
I find it telling that your claim I reject "NT" while these verses i quote are just more things Messiah said that people ignore. And what is the meaning of the term Christian? "Christ Like" Well Messiah kept and taught the Laws of His Father.
Mattithyah 5:19, "Whosoever, therefore, will break one of the least of these Laws, and will teach men so, he will be called the least in the Kingdom of Yahweh; but whosoever will do and teach them, the same will be called great in the Kingdom of Yahweh."
If we are to be followers of Messiah WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY DO WHAT HE SAYS. Not just read His words and say ehh, thats just another thing He said that im going to ignore.
