My view on the word of God is simple, we have to read everything to get to know God, if He tells you it is important you better believe it is important. On more than one occasion Yeshua tells us to keep the commandments and now all of the sudden people wants us to believe that Yeshua had a different set of rules than ABBA Father hence my remark to start of with.
Sorry if I broke the rhythm of the threat but it was my opinion on the title

Who has said it is not important to obey the commands God requires you to obey?
What is the core then? We are now under grace and not the law?
My statement from earlier refers, if Yeshua is the same as the Father why would he teach us differently? Strange that a God that is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow will teach you two covenants... maybe it would be more accurate for us to consider that people in the Old Testament and the Pharisees miss interpreted God's word, just like so many people are doing today.

Let me try and help you better understand the question posed in the title of the thread. The title does not seek to question whether a person should not steal, covet, bear false witness, murder etc, for God does not want any of his children to act this way obviously. The question relates to whether a Christian must read the literal words of the Ten Commandments in order to understand God does not want them to murder, covet, bear false witness steal, etc?
This negates most of what you have written. It would be nice if you had the confidence to directly answer the question, rather than continually deviate from answering it and making some of the unfortunate comments you have made

This was your initial post:
John 8:19 'Where is your father?' Jesus replied, 'You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me you would know my Father as well.'
So by reading this verse we can conclude that if we know the Father we will know Yeshua and if we know Yeshua we will know the Father.
My question to everybody is how can you read this verse, understand this verse and still try to leave out certain parts of the Bible or try to change a God that is not changing?
This was my response:
Who in this thread is trying to leave out certain parts of the bible? ''
I wouldn't say that is being defensive at all. What is clear is you seem unwilling to forthrightly address the question the thread relates to. Why join a thread and make a comment if you feel unable to respond to the question in the title pertaining to it?
