Actually Apostle Paul did say by walking in the fruit of the Spirit love that we will uphold the commands of the Lord, and even the 10 commandments. He also many of times showed in his epistles how the commands will be upheld by a born again believer;

You need to stop writing from the head Kenneth and accept the new covenant. What you are stating is(in reality) In order to be a Christian the Ten Commandments must be obeyed in your life. You can try and word it however you like, that is what you are actually stating. This is what Paul found as a Pharisee when he believed that:
What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.[SUP]8 [/SUP]But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
[SUP]10 [/SUP]And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
[SUP]11 [/SUP]For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me. Rom 7:7-11
This is what Paul the Christian believed:
For sin shall not be your master for you are not under law but under grace Rom 6:14
But Paul the Pharisee would have insisted, as you do now the Ten Commandments must be obeyed to inherit eternal life. Yet though he would have told others that he could not obey them himself, can you?
