Deuteronomy 10:12 & 13 says,
And now, Israel what does YHVH your Elohim ask of you? Other than to fear YHVH your Elohim, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve YHVH your Elohim, with all your heart, and with all your soul, to observe the commandments of YHVH, and His decrees, which I command you today, to benefit you.
Chumash Torah (My own translation)
Some may say that since we are under Grace, the commandments no longer apply to us. They were meant for the Hebrew people, but Yeshua nailed them to the cross (stake), and they no longer apply to the New Testament believers. Can that be true? When has Elohim changed His mind? We need to understand, that our sin debt was nailed to the cross. To believe that Torah was nailed to the cross is a complete misunderstanding of the context of Scripture.
We, are most certainly saved by Grace, through trusting in Yeshua. However, how do we show the world that we love our heavenly Father? We show the world that we love our heavenly Father, by keeping the very commandments, that He says benefit us.
1st John 5:3 says,
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments: and His commandments are not grievous.
Shalom Ahlaychem,
