2. The religious ceremonial laws
God planned from the beginning that the religious ceremonial laws would cease at the cross, because Christ, the true Lamb of God was sacrificed. The animal sacrifices all pointed forward to Christ’s death on the cross. “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, . . .” (Daniel 9:27) For us to offer animal sacrifices today would be a sacrilege, saying that Christ did not die for our sins.

3. The health laws
These are laws that God gave us to keep us healthy and free from disease. The physics of the human body have not changed since these laws were given. The health laws are just as much a benefit for us today as they were for the ancient Israelites. Consider Exodus 15:26: “. . . If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon you, that I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that heals you.” If people perfectly obeyed God and kept the health laws today they would NEVER be sick.

After the flood: Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things. Genesis 9:3
Now: For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, it it be received with thanksgiving. 1 Timothy 4:4
Things do change. . . . .
4. The civil laws
These were the laws governing the civil penalties for crimes within Israel.
Many of our civil laws today are based on these laws to some degree. God does not require these to be strictly adhered to today, because there no longer in existence, but they should be used to guide us in setting up our governments. When someone is convicted of murder, for instance, the murderer should be put to death swiftly in order to discourage others from this sin. “Whoever sheds man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed And blood defiles the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.” (Genesis 9:6, Numbers 35:33)
this last law here is done away with in some states but not all

Is it these laws your speaking about ?
. . . .Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's. Matt. 22:21
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men; For kings and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 1 Timothy 2:1,2
But of course, if we love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and love others as ourselves then we will obey the laws of the land.
and perhaps ivanco and eternily grateful and danschance and others can answer this question too and i think its awful and cowardly if you dont answer this especialy when you have all directly asked just-me who has quite clearly pointed out allready you are free from condemnation of the law if you believe in jesuses word.
