You are twisting scripture for your own purposes. In Romans, when Paul was speaking of our freedom from the law, he clearly referenced God’s law, not man’s.

Nonsense. In chapter 7 he references two types of law:

Rom 7:22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
Rom 7:23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

Paul DELIGHTS in the law of God. However, there is another "law", the law of his flesh, which brings him into captivity to sin. This is what Christians are freed from when they follow God's spiritual laws, embodied by the ten commandments.
