Not at all. To condemn someone on the basis of Torah would be to say that unless you keep the whole Torah, you're not saved. I firmly deny that. All I have done is shown why living under grace does not dispense with the Torah, and quoted Yeshua's warning against teaching others to break even the least of its commandments.

Your attempts to find some fault with me do not address the Biblical question of whether Yeshua said that the whole Torah should be kept or not.

Read Hebrews.

And then read it again.

I know this was addressed to someone else, so pardon my intervening.. but where did Jesus say that we should keep the whole Torah? Where does it say we have to follow all 613 Mitzvot of the Torah?

He gave us the commands we should follow and there weren't 613 of them! His yoke is sweet and His burden is light.

Galatians 5:1 "Stand fast, and be not held again under the yoke of bondage."

Here's a list of the 613 Mitzvot. While I can see obeying some of them, all of them.. a resounding no if you're a Christian.

List of the 613 Mitzvot

Do you agree with the law that says it is okay to charge interest to Gentiles, but not to an Israelite?

Do you keep all 613 of these?
