I wonder what your Messiah thinks of your self-importance and derision. Actually, I don't need to wonder; He already said it to the Pharisees.
STUDY to SHOW THYSELF APPROVED.

all i have been doing is showing I have Studied.

Too bad, You, cannot say the same thing.

Nobody (that I’m aware of) is advocating that Christians follow ‘Pharisaical augmentations’. However, those who advocate following just the Ten Commandments and not the rest of the law have no biblical foundation. You either follow the whole law (all of the ordinances, not just the ten) or none of it. ‘613 laws’ is shorthand for ‘all the ordinances of the old covenant’; whether it is the precise number is irrelevant.
Well, like I was sayin to post, there's more than one law. And all the traditional laws of sacrificial washings and ordinances expired at the Cross.

God's Law, the decalogue (10 Commandments) did not and never will. Hence, written in stone.

"... gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, ... which stood only in meats and drinks, and carnal (pertaining to the flesh/external) ordinances, imposed ... until the time of reformation (until the time that Jesus reformed the Faith with His perfect sacrifice)."
Heb. 9:10

Jesus and Melchisedec were "... made, not after the law of a carnal (flesh/external) commandment, but after the power of an endless (eternal) life."
Heb. 7:16

Jesus' sacrifice did away with the carnal law, with all the commandments besides the 10, besides God's Law. The spiritual (God's) Law (God is a spirit - Jn. 4:24) still remains.

"Having abolished in His flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; ..."
Eph. 2:15

i like that, calling Jews unbelievers.
But, are you watching this WAR between them and HAMAS.
because, God, is surely on their side kicking HAMAS butt.

2 Baptist Churches in Gaza Strip have been destroyed.
ironically, they help the Muslims because they think the JEWS have been Replaced by them.

and now they have no more place to Worship hahahahahahahahaha
we should all probably re-read Ezekiel 38.

we may be watching it unfold. Russia, Iran and Turkey will attack Israel. the former colonies of England will protest but do nothing. God Himself will protect her.

it's the Jews who reject Christ which are in constant violation of the Law, having no temple.

Christians worship neither on one mountain or another, but in spirit and in truth.

in every case tho:

Proverbs 24:17-18​
Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,
and do not let your heart be glad
when he stumbles;
lest the LORD see,
and it displease Him,
and He turn away His wrath from him.

Perhaps you forgot that the entire law was written in stone, by a man named Yeshua -

Joshua 8:32​
And there, in the presence of the children of Israel, he wrote on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.
The record shows that this particular stone did not happen to be immediately afterward shattered to pieces by the foremost type of Christ in the OT, unlike the decalogue.

this is incorrect.

the 613 mitzvot / commandments are all from the Torah, commandments from God Himself in the marriage covenant Law with the nation Israel given at Sinai. they are not the human traditions added by religious leaders.

here is a list of them with scripture references for each:

https://www.jewfaq.org/613_commandments
There is no Biblical record of Jesus teaching, or observing, any of the Commandments besides the 10 given on Mt. Sinai.

Moses even allowed for divorce under certain circumstances and Jesus reiterated the original adultery Commandment explaining that if you divorce your spouse for any reason, it is a sin before God.

Jesus fully reiterated the Mt. Sinai Laws spoken aloud by God Almighty as the mountain smoked with His presence. The people present at that time almost had heart failures due to hearing God speak the 10 Commandments aloud. It was the most dramatic scene in the entire Bible. Second only (maybe) to Christ's death on the Cross.

I am not saying the Jews are Saved, or not guilty of what we read in the Gospels and see how they battled the Followers of Christ all throughout the New Testament.

I am merely saying this Doctrine of Replacement Theology is bogus and It was God Who destroyed those Baptist Churches.

nobody ever kept the law good enough to get saved by it. So God invented a new and living way in which we are made righteous.

... continue in the law and continue to fail ....
James says we all fail often, but that's only those who are making an attempt to follow God's Law.
James 3:2

Jesus says those who don't even attempt to follow God's Law haven't the slightest chance of entering the Kingdom of God.
Matt. 5:20

Those who obey and teach God's Law are greatest in God's Kingdom.
Matt. 5:19

Well, they're not really the same thing.

God wrote the 10 in stone with His own finger.

What is the difference between the Ten Commandments and the Mosaic Law?




The basis for Mosaic law are the Ten Commandments, which include rules about how to worship God, and against killing, coveting, stealing, etc. Mosaic Law today is often conflated with Jewish Law, which is made up of 613 laws that dictate how Jewish people of today are supposed to live their lives.

And the fact God will faithfully preserve and eventually save Israel even while they are apostate is evidence of the security of our own salvation, who do believe!!

:love::love::love:
If God has utterly forsaken Israel, His inheritance, His chosen people, His estranged wife, then how can i, a Gentile nomad, an useless and weak, broken vessel with nothing but faith to show for myself, ever trust Him to save me??

replacement theology is ignorant & heinous!

Ok.

Jewish Law is not the 10 Commandments.

And Jews hate Christ.

Not remotely the same thing.
