Christ set a perfect example for us to follow of how to walk in obedience to the Law of Moses, those who are in Christ are obligated to walk in the same way that he walked, and the body of Christ is composed of people who are in Christ, so it is composed of people who are following his example...

Are you taking the position that God neglected to teach the Israelites how to act in accordance with His righteousness? How can the Mosaic Law be accurately described as righteous is if it were not God's instructions for how to act in accordance with God's righteousness? For example, do you...

Sin is what is contrary to God's character traits, so the law can't just reveal our unrighteousness without also teaching us how to embody God's righteousness by contrast. Our salvation is not just about being restored to the condition that we were before we had sinned but is also about being...

I'm not sure what that has to do with responding to what I said, but love, grace, and mercy are not greater than the law, the way to show love, grace, and mercy. Everything in the Mosaic Law is in regard to how to love God and our neighbor, which is why Jesus said in Matthew 22:36-40 that those...

The New Covenant is still made with the same God with the same character traits and therefore the same eternal and cumulatively valid instructions for how to embody His character traits (Jeremiah 31:33, Ezekiel 36:26-27). New Covenants do not nullify the promises of covenants that have already...

Luke 1:5-6 In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. And he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. 6 And they were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and statutes of the...

In Matthew 4:15-23, Jesus began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand, which was a light to the Gentiles, and the Law of Moses was how his audience knew what sin is (Romans 3:20), so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the Gospel...

The Hebrew word “yada” refers to intimate relationships/knowledge gained by experience, such as with Genesis 4:1 where Adam knew (yada) Eve, she conceived, and gave birth to Cain. God’s way is the way to know (yada) Him and Jesus by having the experience of embodying His character traits, which...

The Hebrew word “yada” refers to intimate relationships/knowledge gained by experience, such as with Genesis 4:1 where Adam knew (yada) Eve, she conceived, and gave birth to Cain. God’s way is the way to know (yada) Him and Jesus by experiencing being in His likeness through embodying His...

My understanding of the difference between the Mosaic and New Covenants is based on what is stated in Scripture whereas everything that you just stated about the difference has no foundation in Scripture. Yes. Yes. In Romans 8:4-7, Paul contrasted those who walk in the Spirit with those who...

It is good to recognize when you are just making things up that have not foundation in what is stated in the Bible. God is trustworthy, therefore His instructions are also trustworthy (Psalm 19:7), so the way to trust in God is by obediently trusting in His instructions and it is contradictory...

While you didn't say that it has been abolished, you are interpreting fulfilling the law as meaning the same thing as abolishing or relaxing it. If we no longer need to follow parts of the Law of God, then it has been abolished. Nowhere does the Bible say that mankind cannot fulfill the law or...

In Matthew 5:17-19, Jesus said that he came to fulfill the law in contrast with saying that he came not to abolish it and he warned against relaxing the least part of it, so you should not interpret fulfilling the law as meaning the same thing as abolishing it or as relaxing even the least part...

Someone who disregarded everything that their schoolmaster taught them after they graduated would be missing the whole point of a schoolmaster. In Exodus 33:13, Moses wanted God to be gracious to him by teaching him to walk in His way that he and Israel might know Him, and in Matthew 7:23...

Nowhere does the Bible say that, but rather it states the opposite. In Romans 10:5-8, Paul referred to Deuteronomy 30 as the word of faith that we proclaim in regard to the righteousness that is by faith proclaiming that the Law of God is not too difficult for us to obey and that obedience to...

God is trustworthy, therefore His instructions are also trustworthy (Psalm 19:7), so the way to trust in God is by obediently trusting in His instructions and it would be contradictory for someone to think that we should trust in God but not in His instructions. So the positions that God should...

It is by the Law of Moses that we have knowledge of what sin is (Romans 3:20) and it commands to keep the Sabbath holy (Exodus 20:8-11), so the position that Jesus did not keep it holy means that he sinned and is therefore not out Savior while the position that Jesus was sinless means that he...

It is super easy to for someone to interpret the Bible in a way that turns it against obeying what God has commanded if that is what someone wants to do, but it shouldn't make sense to interpret servants of God as taking that position. In Deuteronomy 13, the way that God instructed to determine...

Good points, though I'd prefer it if it was less clickbaity about how people were reacting and if they went more into the research instead of pulling numbers out of thin air.

Again, the New Covenant still involves following the Mosaic Law (Jeremiah 31:33, Hebrews 8:10). A priesthood led by God's Word made flesh does not involve setting aside God's Word. I'm not SDA.
