Were All the commandments nailed to the cross?

You are so right! If we obey these two commandments ,then we are following the 10.

Christ came not to take away the law but to fulfill it. He endorsed it and stated that it was good . Now all the law is satisfied in Christ. The law required certain things that had to be performed or given by man in order to satisfy the law in order to recieve Divine intervention. But ALL requirements of the law are satisfied through Christ. He met every reqiurement and left nothing uncovered. We are complete in him.

Actually, it is the other way around. We keep God's commandments in order to demonstrate our love to him and our neighbor. Loving God and loving man are defined by what we do. The commandments show us what love looks like.

shilo, I would respectfully disagree. Loving your neighbor is far more incompasing than the last few of the ten commandments. It intails much more than just the few dont's.

Jesus did not come here to free us from the law to live like barbarian's. He gave us, through the Holy Spirit, the ability to live a life that far surpasses the keeping of the 10 commandments.

As an example of what I mean, I have a problem with people who go to church on Sunday and never interface with the Lord the rest of the week. They do the ten commandments, but would let a homeless person starve to death cause it was not their responsibility to care for them.

Another example is a particular denomination that have made up thier own little book of do's and dont's and they think that all is well if they do those things and anything else is ok. They don't go to movies, but watch the most disturbing television and don't seem to see the difference spiritually.

So I usually speak up a bit over the law when it promoted as a way of life, for it falls far short of what I believe is expected of our lives on earth. All the way from Loving God with all our heart, minds and souls to loving our Neighbor as our selves. Jesus raised the bar from physical laws to the spiritual level which if lived in touch with the spirit go far past the sets of dont's. I believe it is what Paul is trying to teach us.

I can't agree but I can leave the subject to the rest of you......

The only purpose of the Torah was Jesus Christ; there is no separate way it all points to Christ alone. Christ wrote the Torah.

Thus our actions our behaviors as people who follow Christ as Lord and as God would come from Christ alone. When questioned about how one sees the Kingdom of God, what does Christ say, what does the New Testament say? It does not say don't eat pork, in fact it negates those dietary laws very specifically, Christ Himself shows us the way, saying that what goes into a person is not unclean, that nothing is unclean that goes in, what comes out of a man from his heart this is unclean, adultery, fornication, murder, hatred, etc etc.

It doesn't say To eat pork and it doesn't negate the dietary laws once. Please show scriptural proof that it says what you say.
