“I Found It Necessary...” 

Amen amen and amen. I agree with you.

Unusual teaching indeed. Sound teaching. And hard for the apostate to grasp.

Christ died for you. If you know Him, read Hebrews. It could be that you are not being obedient.

In Psalm 119:97-101 David said, O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. He learned to love the very thing that killed him, like the cross does us. "For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain. Galatians 2 Isn't this wonderful? You may ask, "What now?" It is simple, "How love I thy law." The law is more than commandments, it's His words. Eat them! "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are Spirit, and they are life."

Now, when you are full to overflowing, go into the world and share them and Jesus Christ our Lord. "He that loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law."

Jesus said, "My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me." Learn to listen to His voice, and follow Him.

Do you know Him? If you have in your heart the desire to know Jesus Christ, or God, be thankful and open your heart to Him and receive Him like a little child. Listen: The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart (that is, the word of faith which we preach): that if you confess with your mouth, "Lord Jesus," and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Not the ceremonial law, however we are made able ( through the in dwelling Holy Spirit) to keep the 10 commandments through His power over sin. We now desire to keep the 10 commandments, not to be saved, but because we are now saved By Jesus Christ & His precious shed blood 🩸& we keep the 10 commandments out of Love because He first loved us 👆🙏👆
