Dude, for Someone who insists we follow Gods commands, yu continue to break the command about bearing False witness, I never said there were only two. I never said the commands where no longer valid (break they and you sin) and I have never said their were only two
your pride has you blinded to anything I say, you look through blinders, that’s why you can not compretend.

You are not following Paul at all. Paul is explaining all about the law and all these explanations have a conclusion. Your conclusion is not the conclusion that Paul gives us. Here are some of the conclusions Paul gives us:
Rom_3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Rom_6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
Rom_7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
Rom_7:13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.

It slipped my mind, you have so often stated that we are not obliged, you say. And it is because of your interpretation of the Lord speaking to Israel only.
I feel we should understand about this interpretation of scripture as there are so many Christians who agree on "Israel only". I made a post about this, thinking it would be a good idea to discuss this, but only one person responded. That person agreed with my position that God is a God of all men and wanted the idol worshipping gentiles to listen to Him and accept Him as the one true God. I think it is important we understand this through the Lord's eyes, and that is helped so much when Christians give their view.

Yep to lead us to christ
now take them along with the ministers of death written in stone, and you have a complete law that should lead you to Christ,
so in review
the ministers of death written in stone (the Ten Commandments) expose your sin, and your guilt and your failure to live up to Gods standard
The temple itself exposes our separation, as We are outside, and God is in the most holy place. And we can not approach him
the sacrifices needed for forgiveness because we broke the commands, show what must be done in order to restore us
the ceremonial laws show what Christ is going to do
all leading to bring us to our knee like the tax collector and call out to God

In order to be justified, you had to do what Moses commanded,
confirm and obey every word of this law. Otherwise, you are cursed
paul tried to show this to you all in Galatians When he repeated Moses command.
no one can be justified by thenlaw the law brings knowledge of sin, but it has no answer to the problem of sin,
that’s what you lawyers seem to fail to grasp.

You do not seperate them, you put them where they belong
if I commit adultry, I am in sin, that command is still valid,
the law can not tell me what it looks like to commit adultry. What every possibility of breaking that command is, how to not break it, and does not give the ability to be forgiven once you break its
