The teaching of the NT is Torah, in every case.

The teaching of the Old Testament is Christ, in every case.

"But before faith came, we were kept under the Law, as under a garrison, and shut up unto [m]that faith, which should afterward be revealed. Wherefore the Law was our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, that we might be made righteous by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster."

Read the Old Testament through the lens of New, not the New Testament through the lens of the Old.

Yes! - That is what Torah is about.

Without Torah there is no righteousness.

Without righteousness there is no salvation.

Matthew 7:21-23

[21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
[22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
[23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity(lawlessness).

After faith is come, Torah is written on our hearts.

If you have no desire to obey, faith has not yet come.
