Because the answer isn’t in the Torah. Maybe you should start reading the rest of the Book.
The Ten Commandments are the Covenant, did you know?

Are you serious?? I have been stating all of the above on this blog from day one.
Jesus died for me and rose from death so I could also rise to eternal life as HIS Bride.
You do realize, for the last 2000 years those called are to be the Bride of Christ at His return?
Why do you think I selected "member of the bride"
and again you never use scripture, you only attack, I still have no clue what you believe
pine When Jesus Christ returns and you are raised to life again at the 2nd resurrection, I am certain Christ will explain all of this to you
there is not a chance of you understanding any of this until then
By faith we are restored to the image of God.
In His infinite love, God is working to restore His divine likeness within the human soul. This was the original purpose of our creation and remains the grand object of the plan of salvation.
Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:...
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
But sin came alone and destroyed God image in us.
Jesus came to this world as the "express image" of the Father to show us how to live and to provide the power necessary for our transformation.
I feel like you have a different understanding to me, of what it means to be restored in the image of God.
You are focusing on the gift of justication and the provision made for the past sins. But God also wants to free us from the slavery of sin.
2Co 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
Beholding Jesus we are changed into the same image.. Jesus kept the sabbath Holy. Beholding Him we should keep it holy too.
Col 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Phi 2:12.....work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
We will be changed physically ...
1Co 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption...
And the restoration will be completed when we are given new bodies.
But do you think the restoration of our characters is an instant thing, do you think God will force us to think differently and change our characters. ??
I believe sanctification is a big Part of the restoration.
And sanctification is by faith.
then show me where it is explained the Torah can be abolished and how that is accomplished?
Christ stated twice He did not come to destroy the Torah and He quoted and taught from it for 3 1/2 years
again I ask the question why would it be wrong for the entire world to just obey the last 6 commandments, if the world did there would be world peace? so you do not want world peace??
Acts 15:28. Romans 10:4. Romans 13:9. Galatians 3:10. Galatians 3:24. Hebrews 7:12. Hebrews 8:13. That's just off the top of my head.
Did I say that would be wrong? No.
Silly questions warrant dismissive answers.
By the Power of God in us we can do all things.. we can do nothing without Christ.He didnt read what you wrote at all. I wonder why they are unwilling to obey God - He gives us His Holy Spirit so we're enabled to do so. It's not impossible anymore.
It requires faith in Jesus
Like the Exodus, the Israelites needed faith to enter the promised land..
They doubted God's ability to win. They doubted God's strength to overcome the enemy.
Today we have a war with sin in our hearts..
If we want to enter the promised land we need to not doubt, but have faith in God's power to win and God's strength to overcome. We need to believe that God can have victory in our hearts.
Not make excuses and not say it's impossible...
We can walk on water if we have faith.
Philippians 1:6
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
The young ruler wasn't actually keeping the law. And that was the point of the way Jesus chose to address him. By referencing the law, Jesus was pointing him to Himself. If the young man had actually been keeping the law, he would have been rich towards God and others. Instead, he was rich towards himself.
I thought about explaining each of these, it is a waste of time, your mind is locked.
at the 2nd resurrection the Sons of God will explain it all and Paul will be there as well and He is going to be shocked at how his words have been twisted.
I already quoted Paul on the subject...nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. I used a verse where Jesus spoke because you don't recognize the authority of all of scripture.
If nothing can separate us from God, we will therefore be attached to God till the end.
Can I ask you a question?
Please give a straight forward biblical answer.
If the death of Jesus on the cross made the Ten Commandments void, is it a sin to murder today? If the death of Jesus made the Ten Commandments void what sins are we guilty of today?
Do you believe osas,
Did God give us free will? Does God force us to be saved? Can we choose to rebel if we want to?
No person or being not even the devil can pull us from God's arms but sin seperates.
Isa 59:2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.
Does God force us not to sin..??
That's ludicrous on it's face. Christians don't persevere because of their own endeavor; we persevere because God is faithful. As @BillyBob quoted earlier...He that hath begun a good work in you will perform it till the day of Jesus Christ.
Yes God will perform his work in us if we endure. It makes no sense to warn us to endure, as scripture does, if it's all God's doing.
Gal 5:22
I'm trying to understand your language.
Do you translate that as "against such things there is no Torah?"
It is my understanding that all of Torah promotes these things, per Jesus' "all the law and the prophets speak of Me" so... Torah isn't exactly equivalent to Moses' 10 commandments.
