Faith is the keeping of Torah.

Through the Council of Jerusalem, Peter's revelation, and Paul's letter to the Romans we know that keeping of Torah is no longer required. Keeping of the moral law as expressed in the Ten Commandments and the two great commandments of Love God and Love of Neighbor, yes; keeping of Torah, no. In Jesus Christ we have a New Covenant.

You post nonsense!

Acts ch 15 is completely about how to teach Torah to the new believers.

That is especially evident when they instruct them to hear Moses read every Sabbath day.

The entire book of Acts is about how the apostles diligently kept the feasts and Sabbaths.

There is little else in the entire book.

Yes, and the NOT eating of blood is ONE of the four things the Holy spirit reiterated for Gentile believers.

>> “In Jesus Christ we have a New Covenant.” <<

Jeremiah declares that covenant to be the renewal of the old covenant, and it is with The House of Judah, and The House of Israel.

Biblically speaking, there is no “church.” The church is totally a creation of men, and the idea of a “new covenant” to exclude the loving commandments of Yehova is a gift from the adversary.
