I find those who reject the commandments, in many cases, are some serious rebels who go to extremes to make the scriptures conform to their own desires. No vine exits without roots. The OT, and it's first five books, the Torah, are rich in knowledge of the Creator and His plan for Mankind.
Great caliber btw, it's my fav...;
The newest Bible versions will list The Ten Optionals (it sounds less harsh than commandments) or the Nine Commandments (Your choice!). (jk) We must be in the last days is all I can say.
I don’t reject the commandments. I reject the idea that Christians are bound by them as a code today. I believe if we are subject to that law we are responsible for the whole law. My contention is that we are under a higher law, the law of Christ. That said, nine of the ten were reiterated in the New Testament, so we are certainly subject to those commands. The only practical point of disagreement concerns the 4th Commandment, i.e. the Sabbath.
“Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath.” —Colossians 2:16
