If we are to live by faith and faith alone, then why did Jesus bother with all the teaching?


And again, whats it gonna hurt? Accepting these teachings has nothing to do with rejecting Jesus. If anything, doing away with these teachings would be rejecting Jesus as many of these books are the foundation of the teachings of Jesus. Jesus is the word, and the word is in the books you are wanting to do away with.
 
Well, Jesus only told us to love God and love others. All the other commandments are wrapped up in the simple command to LOVE. The only difference is that after his death, He sent us the Holy Spirit to indwell us to more enable us to love. But it is still our choice
to do that.

To not love is to not let Christ be expressed through us (his body) to those who need it. We shut off the flow of mercy to others. If we really love Him, we would not want to do that. We would want to deny our own feelings so that His forgiveness and love would be given to others through us.
 
I agree, love is so important and can lead us in the right direction.

now if i can just figure out how this got in the blog section and not in the forum.
