What happened in the capitol is people do not love as God commands, and also people fear what is going to happen ahead and wanted to stop it instead of trusting of God, and knowing all things work together for the good. That’s actually been going on for 4 years now as violence and destruction of property and murder has been going on,
so instead of loving others and thinking about them, as Jesus commanded, they acted out of hate and fear, and i believe many acted out their own sinful desire for violence, as I believe has happened in many of these things
the law did not stop them, because the law had no power to stop them
there were laws. They are their to prosecute enemy, sadly, like in Portland, and all the other places where this violence has raged,no one will probably be prosecuted, because the people in power actually want it
you have some things to learn my friend,

once again this is not true
christians do not go out breaking commands because they imitate Christ, who served in love, and always put the needs of others above his own.
they fact you keep rejecting this notion of power given by God as the means to be command keepers and not command breakers is beyond all means of comprehension
if I love my wife, I will never commit adultry, if I just try to follow the command, I may be intimidated to not follow my;flesh and commit the sin of the flesh, but I will easily fall to sins of the mind, where I commit adultry in my heart, which according to the law is technically not sin, yet jesus said , the law said do not do this, but I tell you, if you do that, you have sinned,
even Jesus tried to show the ten commands were week, in that did they did not completely say what all sin was.
but in your pride, which yu have shown wince you arrived here, youare unable to hear even jesus

What do you think this "old law" is that we are not bound to? The ten commandments teach how to love, are you against the love that is in those commandments?
Gal_2:17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.
Rom_6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

The person who things that the feasts are "suggested" by the Lord doesn't understand the nature of the old covenant.
The person who believes "they are only an obligation that we are exempt from and should not be celebrated" is likely being misquoted (shocker!).
The person who judges another as non-Christian over this matter is going too far.

(Romans 7:7) Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. [ That is why they acted the way they did and again where do you come up with this one command of love yes every command and precept God gives us is a act of love. Just think if we opened the Holy scripture and it had one verse just love one another with no other instruction to follow everyone would be like what do we do now and they would probably say oh I guess we just hug and kiss each other.]
You still haven't told me where your heard Jesus said his Fathers one and only command to us is love and abolish everything else because it's not in scripture it's man fabricated doctrine here is what Jesus said (Matthew 5:18-19) 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, [notice he said after not before] one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, [ notice commandments plural not just law of love you imply wasn't that what the hippys in the 60s lived by] and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, [notice he said teach not abolish commandments and forget] the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. [And if you don't think you can be obedient to God's will then your denying the power of the indwelling Spirit and yes Love is the foundation everything is built upon.]

mark 12: 29 Jesus answered him, “The [k]first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lordour God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ [l]This is the first commandment.31 And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Matt 22:
36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”
37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lordyour God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
