Jesus Himself summed up the laws as love God and they neighbor as thyself.
Gentile Christians are NEVER instructed to follow the 10 Commandments OR the hundreds of other commandments and laws given to the Children of Isreal.

Are you saying we are only to Obey the 7 Noahide Laws?
Idolatry is forbidden. Man is commanded to believe in the One G-d alone and worship only Him.
Incestuous and adulterous relations are forbidden. Human beings are not sexual objects, nor is pleasure the ultimate goal of life.
Murder is forbidden. The life of a human being, formed in G-d’s image, is sacred.
Cursing the name of G-d is forbidden. Besides honoring and respecting G-d, we learn from this precept that our speech must be sanctified, as that is the distinctive sign which separated man from the animals.
Theft is forbidden. The world is not ours to do with as we please.
Eating the flesh of a living animal is forbidden. This teaches us to be sensitive to cruelty to animals. (This was commanded to Noah for the first time along with the permission of eating meat. The rest were already given to Adam in the Garden of Eden.)
Mankind is commanded to establish courts of justice and a just social order to enforce the first six laws and enact any other useful laws or customs
*Rather than the 10 Commandments*?

What he summed up was the ten commandments. The ten commandments have to do with your duty to others and to God. For example if you love your neighbor you will not steel his car etc. And if you love God you will have no other Gods etc.
Jesus said, “If you love me, keep my commandments.”
Jesus is God.
God gave us the ten commandments.
Ergo, we should keep the commandments.
Not to “save ourselves,” but to honor Him.
The rich young rules was told to keep the commandments. Also, he was told to sell all he had, give to the poor, and follow Jesus. He was not told “forget the commandments.”
That said, if you love the Lord your God with all your heart, and your neighbor as yourself, I dare say you’d be keeping the ten commandments anyway. Would you worship an idol if you loved the Lord? Would you take His name in vain? Would you defraud your neighbor if you love him as yourself? Commit adultery with his wife? Kill him? Of course not.
