From The Ten Commandments—What happened?

Righteousness is imputed to me through faith; that is, the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ. Therefore, I do what is righteous (1 John 3:7). I live according to my new identity given to me through Romans 4:5.

You should know that I preach that if anyone seeks to enter the kingdom through law-keeping, they must keep the law perfectly from conception into eternity (Galatians 3:10, James 2:10, Matthew 5:48).

And that the only other alternative is to have Jesus' perfect life substituted for yours as He took the penalty for your sins and His perfect righteousness is applied to your account.

However, once that righteousness is applied to your account, you are not devoid of the Holy Spirit. For you have received Him by faith (Galatians 3:14).

And if you are born again, the love of the Lord is shed abroad in your heart through the Holy Ghost (Romans 5:5).

This love is a practical love (1 John 3:17-18) and is the fulfilling of the righteousness of the law within you (Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 8:4).

You cannot violate the law if you are bearing the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).

This is a righteousness of God apart from the law that is attested to by the law and the prophets (Romans 3:21).

It comes not through attempting to obey a set of do's and don'ts (crossing your t's and dotting your i's); but through having a relationship with the Holy Spirit wherein you are obedient to the promptings of His love in your life.

In this, Jesus will be living His perfect life in you and through you (Galatians 2:20).

But if you should fail, stumble, or fall, Jesus' grace is there to cover you (Romans 4:7-8, 1 John 2:1).

Nevertheless we do not have to stumble or fall (Jude 1:24, 2 Peter 1:10, 1 John 2:10)...we can walk in freedom and victory by the power of the Holy Ghost.

Jesus was make redemption to the unlucky born men like Canaan (Genesis 9:25-26), this covers all abortion babies these days. What did canaan think that since he was born as a baby got a curse ?
And Jesus was covers all men who were lack of health, that's why he seek the sick (Mark 2:16-17), and the scribes always judge all the sick and handicap because they cannot accept the handicap people survived, they pride of their perfectness in doing the law bc they're healthier, wealthier and luckier. But Jesus had been put the equality to them that whosoever wants to accept Jesus must be able to sell their wealthy and give to the poor, because all men are bring nothing from this world (1 Timothy 6:6-7).

We are saved to love God and love each other, but not to spend our lives focused on the Law. Leaving you to it.

Much love!

No doubt.

For by the law is the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20); it is a schoolmaster to lead men to Christ (Galatians 3:24, Psalms 19:7 (kjv)).

Of course, there is this:

Pro 28:9, He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination.

And this:

Jas 1:25, But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

From The Ten Commandments—What happened?

When we bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit, we will not be doing anything in violation of any just law (Galatians 5:22-23, Psalms 94:20).

Thus we have a righteousness apart from the law that is attested to by the law and the prophets (Romans 3:21).

Because this righteousness is not obtained by attempting to keep a set of do's and don'ts.

It is obtained through faith in Jesus Christ.

For we receive the Holy Spirit by faith (Galatians 3:14).

And the love of the Lord is shed abroad in our hearts through the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5).

And this love is practical in nature (1 John 3:17-18) and is the fulfilling of the righteousness of the law within us (Romans 13:8-10, Galatians 5:14, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 8:4).

So then, as we obey the promptings of the love of the Holy Spirit within us, we will not be doing anything in violation of the law.

If we do violate the law, we can be certain that we have sinned against the love of God that is purportedly shed abroad within our hearts.

Because by the law is the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20). The law tells us what are the specifics of God's love.

But of course the law does not have the power to impart life (Galatians 3:21).

It does have the power to convert the soul (Psalms 19:7 (kjv), Galatians 3:24) through showing us that we are sinners in need of a Saviour (Romans 3:20).

Because if anyone is born of God, he cannot sin (1 John 3:9). And sin is the transgression of the law (1 John 3:4).

Unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5:20).

The Lord will not sanctify us without our cooperation and surrender to the work that He desires to do within us.

Of course our salvation is not through law-keeping, or even obedience, or our performance, or our works.

However, we need to take this into account:

Mat 5:20, For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

We are sanctified (Hebrews 13:12, Hebrews 10:29) and cleansed (1 John 1:7) through the blood of Jesus.

This is a righteousness that is not only imputed but imparted (1 John 3:7, Romans 5:19, Matthew 5:6).

It does not come by the law (Galatians 2:21).

But as it comes through faith in Jesus Christ, we are sanctified and cleansed from the inside out so that the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in us (Romans 8:4); not only from the perspective of the outward requirement, but the Lord enacts an inward change that makes us righteous on the inside.
