Good post sister. Why don't we just obey? It's really so much easier than looking everywhere for an excuse, a loophole, so we can justify to ourselves why it's ok to disregard what our Creator has said. A Psalm of David, and (selah) means "look here very important"
Who may go up to the mountain of Adonai?
Who can stand in his holy place?
[SUP]4 [/SUP]Those with clean hands and pure hearts,
who don’t make vanities the purpose of their lives
or swear oaths just to deceive.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]They will receive a blessing from Adonai
and justice from God, who saves them.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]Such is the character of those who seek him,
of Ya‘akov, who seeks your face. (Selah)

Sorry Elin I am responsive. The Bible also plainly states that the wages of sin is death. Therefore since people were dying from Adam to Moses they had to know God's law had been broken other wise they would have been living because sin is transgression of the law. The law shows us what sin is and it would have been unfair for God to kill people if they didn't know they were breaking the law therefore I believe they knew of that law handed down by word of mouth from God's lips to Adam and Adam to his son's and so on and so forth.
God's government has always had a law to follow ask Lucifer/Satan....as he was the first one to break it with pride and coveting God's position. Oh that might be a little difficult but Satan is well aware of God's law trust me.

and "in Christ" tells how they are fulfilled
8He hath remembered his covenant for ever,
the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
10And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
so i ask where does Christ fulfilled this covenent and did away with it, like you claim.
i still not see where a thousand generations are over with, which question you keep avoiding.

So!! Scripture proves the law is death so we must stay completely away from it. There is no life in it, and with no life it means nothing to us, we are all for life. The law is the strength of sin.
So when the Lord calls it the Torah and says it is good, then the Lord reverses that and says it is nothing but death, maybe we should just dump the entire scripture, not only the law. There is so much of law in it, even the Sermon on the Mount speaks of it, yet you point out it is nothing but death and bad, maybe with a book so filled with this bad stuff we should just toss the entire book?

Are you saying that you also do not believe the word of God in
"before the Law was given, sin was in the world (as proven by the death of all men).
But sin is not taken into account when there is no law.
Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses,
even over those who did not sin by breaking a command, as did Adam, who was our pattern to come." (Ro 5:13-14).

Paul's argument is:
the wages of sin is death (Ro 6:23),
but sin was not taken into account (guilt was not ascribed) from Adam to Moses,
yet all died because of their guilt.
So of what sin were they guilty when guilt of their own sin is not ascribed?
They were guilty of Adam's sin (Ro 5:18).
