If we believe Jesus was serious when He said keeping His commandments is what those who love Him will do (John 14:15 KJV) and calling Him Lord Lord without doing what He's commanded us to do is rebuke worthy (Luke 6:46 KJV), then that belief should result in keeping all Ten of His commandments, including the seventh day Sabbath, right or wrong?
If having the mind of Christ is the MO in the age to come, I can't imagine coveting being a desirable option....and if it's not an option why have a law prohibiting it?

The debt of the law, including the Ten Commandments got nailed to the cross and marked 'paid in full'.
:confused: Paid in full?
Jesus crucified means, I can murder my neighbor because I covet and steal her 2022 Tesla, and I can lie to police after and swear her husband did it and I was a witness, after I dismantle my altar to actor Gerard Butler, curse God, tell my parents to flake off and die, drive off and grab up my boss's husband so we can begin an affair after I kiss off the Sabbath because me and my new lover are flying to Ibeza for the rest of the winter.

What fun.

You're just making one more droning stab at conflating ceremonial and moral law.
"He forgave us all our trespasses, 14having canceled the debt ascribed to us in the decrees that stood against us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross!" Colossians 2:13-14
Covid isn't still making you cranky, is it?
Don't worry. Covid will be forgotten soon and replaced by wars and rumors of war.

To you, the word "law" means the same thing wherever you read it in the Bible.
Jesus called them commands:

37Jesus declared, “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’e 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’f Matthew 22:37-39

I'm pretty sure 'commands' and 'law' are the same thing.

Yes, that's what that means. No! that's not what it means, lol. It means the debt of law you owed before you got saved was forgiven and marked 'paid in full' the moment you believed in the blood of Christ for the forgiveness of sin. He could of just forgiven it and wrote it off without payment. But he actually paid the price I owed for the law I had violated. He didn't have to do that. He's God. He could have just said, forget it, you're free. But he didn't. He paid it. Wow.

You seem to have missed the meaning of "paid in full" altogether. It is not a license to sin, and nobody preaches such nonsense.

commandment
ἐντολὴ (entolē)
Noun - Nominative Feminine Singular
Strong's 1785: An ordinance, injunction, command, law. From entellomai; injunction, i.e. An authoritative prescription.

Law?”
νόμῳ (nomō)
Noun - Dative Masculine Singular
Strong's 3551: From a primary nemo; law, genitive case, specially, (including the volume); also of the Gospel), or figuratively.

No crank here. :D:p

I know about the cross, sins forgiven never to be remembered again by God, etc ...

I was playing on the anti-Gospel bent that arrives here from time to time apparently and that claims Christ's death on the cross, and we who hold to eternal irrevocable salvation, believe we can sin and still see heaven.

To therefore think Christians can sin like that which I described, as some insist their so called "OSAS" implies, was what I was playing on.

What she means is this matter of working in the field and building of God has nothing to do with a person working to save themselves. The saved person is saved. They will be saved. Paul is saying it's a matter of whether or not you're going to show up at the resurrection alone with no one to show for your labor in the field and building of God, or whether some of your 'work' is going to come with you. The people you successfully minister to in this life will be your reward on the other side. That's why Paul says we should be careful how we build. You don't want to show up with no one to show for your labor for God here on earth. There's no reward for that.
Right, and even if all someone's works were burned they are still saved.
