But a Christian still keeps the Ten Commandments in my opinion.

the Ten Commandments

How many additional commandments does a person who follows the greatest commandment need?

In Matthew 22 Jesus said :

37 - Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 - This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

It is virtually impossible for a Christian to love God and their neighbor and fail to follow the Ten Commandments.

Judaism contains over 600 hundred laws that adherents of Judaism are expected to follow. These are not God’s laws but rather laws that the Jewish scholars created over the years. The Jewish laws do not bind Christians. God gave man free will and if a Christian takes the decision not to eat pork it is because of his choice and not because of the Old Testament laws.
