In Titus 2:14, Jesus gave himself to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people of his own possession who are zealous for doing good works, so becoming zealous for doing good works in obedience to the Torah is the way to receive what Jesus accomplished through the cross...

I demonstrated with Scripture that the children of the promise are those who have been taught to turn from their wickedness and walk in God's way in obedience to the Torah in accordance to spreading the Gospel, so your denial falls flat. In Titus 2:14, Jesus gave himself to redeem us from all...

God's law is God's word and Jesus is God's word made flesh, so being focused on God's law is being focused on Jesus. Jesus is the radiance of God's glory and he exact image of God's character (Hebrews 1:3), so if all of the invisible character traits of God like holiness, righteousness...

Indeed. In Matthew 23:23, Jesus said that faith is one of the weightier matters of the Mosaic Law, so whatever is in disobedience to it is not of faith, whatever is not of faith is sin (Romans 14:23), and whatever is in transgression of the Mosaic Law is sin (1 Joh 3:4). Agreed. The Torah...

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 Torah is how his audience knew what sin is (Romans 3:20), so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the Gospel message...

Jesus live in obedience to the Torah so that is also the way that we have the delight of getting to live when he is living in us.

I didn't say that God made the Mosaic Covenant with their fathers. 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 Torah was how his audience knew what sin is, so repenting from our...

Jesus spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Torah by word and by example and he did not establish the New Covenant for the purpose of undermining anything that he taught, but rather the New Covenant involves God putting the Torah in our minds and writing it on our hearts...

The Mosaic Law is truth (Psalms 119:142), which is the truth that Jesus embodied (John 14:6), but you are opposed to truth.

In Acts 5:32, the Spirit has been given to those who obey God, so obedience to God is part of the way to receive the Spirit, however, Galatians 3:1-2 denies that "works of the law" are part of the way to receive the Spirit, therefore that phrase does not refer to obedience to God. In Romans...

Christ spend his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example, so Gentiles can look at what he taught and decide whether or not to follow him, but Gentiles can't follow him by refusing to follow what he taught. Following what Jesus taught is not just for Jews...

Christ spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example, so if I am a Judaizer for doing that, then so is he, and so should everyone else, but that is not what it means to be a Judaizer.

Sin is the transgression of God's law (1 John 3:4) and God's law commands to keep the Sabbath holy (Exodus 20:8-11), so someone can choose to not do that if they want, but not without sinning. In Titus 2:14, Jesus gave himself to redeem, us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a...

I do not. In Acts 15:1, the position of the Judaizers was that Gentiles should be required to have first become circumcised in order to become saved, which is not a position that I have ever supported, and I completely agree with the Jerusalem Council's ruling against that position.

Christ spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example and Paul's problem with the Judaizers was not that they were teaching Gentiles how to follow Christ, but that they were wanting to require Gentiles to obey works of the law in order to become...

Jesus would have still taught how to walk in obedience to the Mosaic Law by example even if he had the Apostles hadn't repeated a single command, and we are told to follow his example (1 Peter 2:21-22) and that those who are in Christ are are obligated to walk in the same way he walked (1 John...

God has not command anyone to fast twice a week, so that is an example of something that is optional that we have the freedom to decide whether or not to do in accordance with out conscience, however, where God has commanded human opinion must yield, so keeping God's holy days is not optional...

God's instructions was never intended to be something that we obeyed on our own apart from God, but rather relying on God's instructions is the ay to rely on God. Jesus walked in obedience to the Mosaic Law and in Matthew 11:28-30, he was inviting people to come to him and to learn from him...

Acts 2:46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, They attended the temple together and broke bread together on every day of the week, but there is nothing about this that means that they weren't...

Christ spent his ministry teaching his followers to obey the Mosaic Law by word and by example, so I don't see a good reason to think that the Law of Christ is something other than or contrary to what Christ taught. God is not in disagreement with Himself about which law we should follow, so...
