just like i thought you don't know what you are talking about, you haven't got a clue. Just do what Jesus asked us to do follow his example and you'll be fine, that is not what you're doing right now.
The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

I provided Scripture, you provided your own words, I am going to stick with the Scripture and just agree to disagree. I wish you well.
wait... weren't you the one who asked me for all of the explanations? Pretty arrogant of you to make yourself the judge of me
who had to explain it all to you. I actually think you are using it as a smoke screen because you have no way to
refute what I said because it is correct, but you just don't want to admit it and embarrass yourself. That's okay but next time, a simple thank you will suffice.
God knows and that's what matters and He knows that with all of us, nothing we can hide from Him Ecc12:13-14
I have tried discussing this with you in the past, but you use your words and not Scripture and I have found its impossible to reason when one uses their own ideas, thoughts, opinions as if its the same as what God's Word says, Its fruitless- so I wish you well, but I will leave it as agree to disagree.
Absurd. Here for your future reference if you are able to retain it. This is scripture, not my own words.
[Heb 7:12 KJV] 12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
And the context is in the next two verses as already pointed out to you. We can make the bible say anything if we leave out its context.
This is what I was referring to.
When the God of the Bible said this about His covenant
Psa 89:34 My covenant I will not break,
Nor alter the word that has gone out of My lips.
Why the New Covenant is established on better promises Heb8:6 not all new laws because the issue has never been God's laws- its saying God made a mistake, He is at fault, when He told us who was at fault the people Heb8:8 because they did not continue in the covenant, they broke it. God had no choice but to make a New Covenant and He did so based on better promises, because He promised not to change the words, not a jot or tittle Mat5:18 because you can't make something perfect Psa19:7 more perfect or holy, more holy Rom7L12 the issue as always been the harden heart of man not subjecting themselves to the law of God Rom8:7-8
God didn't change the Old Covenant; it remains full force in effect as given for those under it. God mad a NEW COVENANT, which is why it is called..... wait for it.,.. the New Covenant and is for those whom He chose to salvation and places under it.
Neither of them will He break. Got it?
Its not like God did away with His laws. He just moved them from tablets of stone to our hearts AND God gave us His Holy Spirit. So now we REALLY have no excuse.

No. With a new priest there must be new laws. A change of where they reside is not a change of the law - it's still the same law
If you see a person in need, are being merciful when you tell them or are you being merciful if you say nothing.
God knew that the Israelites would not turn from their ways but He sent Jeremiah to tell them the truth anyway.
Jer 7:24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
Jeremiah kept telling them anyway.. God was long suffering and merciful. Not because God said nothing but because God rebuked and told them the truth.
Pro 9:8 Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
Pro 27:5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.
Heb 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
Rev 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
It isn't because I want to condemn you but because I'd like you to experience the Joy of the sabbath the Jesus is Lord of.
Also help you to understand the result of rejecting the Lord's laws
1 Corinthians 10:31 is scripture last I checked. And yes, God knows what obedience looks like and consists in. The question is: do you? Someone who promotes the law as you do ought to know. So please tell us how do we fulfill the command to drink a glass of orange juice to the glory of God. Do you know how to keep this commandment? Yes or no?
So the Scriptures say something else, thats what I am going to stick with.
Heb10:, 9 then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will, O God.” He takes away the first that He may establish the second.
God does not have different covenant, with different people. He one covenant, that we enter by faith. Those who enter have their Fathers laws written in their hearts. Many never enter into a covenant with God because they refuse His laws Rom8:7-8.
@2ndTimeIsTheCharm
For clarity, I should have been more specific in my reply to you. The change of law pertains exclusively to the New Covenant and to those whom God places under it. For the Old Covenant and those under it, its laws remain as-is.
Sorry, I often neglect to make that distinction.
Sorry I'm a long way behind... I don't spend hours on this sight... so I'll admit I might miss a few posts.
But I'm a bit confused.
When you say "all the laws", are you saying we need to keep all 600 plus laws given to Moses?
When you say "no laws were made void".
Do you believe we need to shed the blood of spotless lambs today.?
Should we keep the feast of Trumpets today?
What you portray is not obedience to the Holy Spirit. You obey your own false interpretation of scripture (if you really obey the law, which I doubt) and then browbeat and insult others who are led by the Spirit of God. Ellen G White was a witch and a false prophet.Do you comprehend how there are only two spirits presented here.
The Spirit of obedience, the Holy Spirit VS the spirit of disobedience, the spirit of Anti-Christ.
The Spirit of Able VS the spirit of Cain.
Covenant keepers, AKA Commandment keepers VS covenant breakers, non- Commandment keepers, AKA sinners.
The disciples of Christ, speaking & promoting Truth, Jesus VS the disciples of anti- Christ speaking & promoting UN-Righteousness.
... For me and my house, we will serve the Lord ~~ Joel 24:15
We are in a battle of authority ! Christ & His angels against Satan and his angels, over the souls of men.
Read " The Great Controversy" between Good & Evil" ... By Ellen G White
The book explains this battle for authority, in very great detail.
... and I pray that you convert and born again to the winning side.
I started reading the Great Controversy. It is wolf in sheep's clothing material. The real controversy is how anyone who is born again can fall for that rubbish.
I'm already on the victory side. I don't need your false doctrines to do that. God always gives me the victory through my Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is my life now. I died and my life is hidden in Him with God. I am already a new creation in Jesus. I follow a law about which you know nothing, It is the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus. It's better than anything the dead religion of Adventism can offer. The real church has flourished and prospered without the false Adventist doctrine for 2,000 years. I say the real church for a reason. There is a lot that calls itself Christian but it's fake. That includes SDA.
Your lot did not arise until the 19th century. Before that, Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Knox, Bunyan, the Wesleys, Whitefield, Edwards and countless others preached the true gospel. They were imperfect men, but the gospel spread through them. Then SDA starts off with a complete fiasco of a false prophecy. The greater disappointment is that some persisted in building on a false foundation. And here we are, with you promoting the false and judging those who reject your SDA false teaching.
No you haven't. You've never shown how to keep a commandment or what obedience consists in. You can't even tell us how to drink a glass of orange juice to the glory of God. You suggest to us that we don't keep the commandments and you don't know how to fulfill a simple commandment yourself. Why is that so?
So you want to obey the law. Good luck with that. You must also obey the punishments meted out to lawbreakers. I don't how you will get away with stoning adulterers. In this day and age, you would run out of rocks fairly quickly. You should also cut off the hands of thieves. What you really need to do is convert to Islam and go live in a Muslim country. You would be right at home there.
2Co 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
When you don't know what I know or do and claim you do, that tells me where any future discussion would lead to, unfruitful, We have had similar discussion previously, I am choosing not to go down that path based on where it ended last time. I have spoken plenty about how to keep the commandments, and would be happy to engage when its coming from a good place of really wanting to understand. Since that wasn't my experience before with a very lengthy discussion, thank you but I will pass. Scripture even tells us there is a time to move on Mat15:3-14, that's what I am doing, but wish you well.
We've never received an answer from you. You are running away from the fray. You have no answer so you divert. If you could answer, you would instead of making excuses. You are a professer, but not a possesser.
Would you like me to answer for you since you obviously don't know how?
