So the NCT would say that the Christian is bound by the two commandments of loving God, and loving neighbor, and that the Mosaic Law is good for deriving general principles from?

Don't you see this as the cumulative effect of the OT law? Does it not contain the principles of the law?

Kevin I have often asked the people that post on FR that believe that we can loose our salvation it they keep the NC law perfectly? They say yes..but as you and I would agree I think no one except Jesus could ever love God perfectly or love his neighbor as himself..impossible because of our sin nature..

But they think if they are faithful to their spouse , do not kill anyone and do not steal etc. they are living a "sinless life" what self deception that is..

Jesus did not lower the bar IMHO He raised it..

Sure, you just have to read the Sermon on the Mount to see that.
