It scares me that this sentence makes sense to you.
It should scare you. Because it shows you are trying to grab Gods glory for yourself. God hates that.

There is a righteousness that can come from following the law of Moses with all the sacrifices in them and one can be blameless in them - however there is none that are righteous as to having God's righteousness - Rom. 3:10 "There is none righteous - no , not one." and Paul himself said that he was blameless as to the law of Moses.
Christ's righteousness is the only thing that counts now in the New Covenant.
Romans 10:2-4 (NASB)
[SUP]2 [/SUP] For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge.
[SUP]3 [/SUP] For not knowing about God's righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.
Trying to attain righteousness by keeping the law will nullify the grace of God from operating in our lives.
Galatians 2:21 (NASB)
[SUP]21 [/SUP] "I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."
[SUP]4 [/SUP] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
Here Paul is showing the difference between "his" righteousness from the law and Christ's - all works-based salvationists get this confused and try to maintain or create "their" righteousness by what they do.
Philippians 3:6 (NASB)
[SUP]6[/SUP] as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless.
Philippians 3:9 (NASB)
[SUP]9[/SUP] and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith,
Christ alone is our righteousness. 2 Cor. 5:21 ; 1 Cor. 1:30 ; Eph. 4:24

So more twisting good into evil.
You say trying to glorify our Father by living the way He said He wanted too, or Glorifying.Our.Messiah by trying to walk as he.did. as he commanded we walk. Is Stealing our Fathers Glory? And he does.not like obedience?
Again. There is more twist coming out of you than out of Chubby Checker.

You have much to learn, Grasshopper. The Law is entirely rooted in God. When you try to keep the Law in the energy of your flesh you are actually usurping God by trying to set the Law free from its foundation in God. That is the very definition of lawlessness. And it is nothing less than an attempt to annul the Law and grab Gods glory for yourself whether you realize it or not.
Snicker..
Your case...Obeying YHWH is stealing his authority. Disobeying him shows his authority.
Your case...Obeying the law shows disobedience to the law.
Your case... Doing what the master stells you to do is grabbing his glory for yourself. But not keeping his law gives him glory.
Sounds awfully like your trying to get people to try some friut you picked up in Eden.

Actually the funny thing is that the law is actually a manifestation of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil which was in Eden and people are still eating from it today.
I believe that the Law is a manifestation of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The fruit of "knowing good" is on the same tree as in the "knowing of evil". This is the Law.
The Law was brought into the hearts of all people because of Adam's sin. Even those that knew not the Law of Moses - still had the Law in them. The mystery of iniquity is in the blood of all people born. ( except for our Lord of course )
Romans 2:14-15 (NASB)
[SUP]14 [/SUP] For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves,
[SUP]15 [/SUP] in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them,
We were not made to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil - that is for God alone - but we are to eat from the tree of Life which is Christ Himself.
There today still stands two choices as in the Garden of Eden - to either eat from the fruit of the law or eat from the tree of Life which is Christ Himself.
We need to allow the blood of Jesus to purge our consciences from dead works to serve the living God inside of us now - Jesus by way of the Holy Spirit. The Father is in us now too because we are all one spirit joined together.
Things you see that make you want to say....

The only ones obeying God are those living by faith in Christ, and we are the only ones who are.
Actually the funny thing is that the law is actually a manifestation of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil which was in Eden and people are still eating from it today.
The belief that the law is a manifestation of the tree is a tenant of quabbalah. I reject quabbalah.
possibly interesting side note
as far as I can find, the first rule in the law is
GENESIS 2:16 And the Lord God gave the man orders, saying, You may freely take of the fruit of every tree of the garden:
GENESIS 2:17 But of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not take; for on the day when you take of it, death will certainly come to you.
Better get on top of all those other "laws" too. You have to do all the law - not just the ones that we think are "do-able" to us now from our own human effort.
James 2:10 (NASB)
[SUP]10 [/SUP]For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
The true Christian life is a life fully dependent on the Lord Jesus Christ and it is an exchanged life. We have died and our true life in hidden with Christ in God. Col.3:3
It is finished - we can rest in Him. He is more than enough!...and we can trust Him.
Hebrews 4:9-11 (NASB)
[SUP]9 [/SUP] So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
[SUP]10 [/SUP] For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His.
[SUP]11 [/SUP] Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.
was it not paul who said if you obey one, your indebted to obey them all..
Moses was given an oath to make the people receive or reject. To confirm and obey every word written in the law. failure to do so would make them break the covenant, It meant, the only way to keep the covenant, is to be sinless perfect.. Because as you so rightely showed, even james understood. Break it even one, (no matter how small the sin may be ) abnd your guilty of it all.
