I'm not hinting at anything. I'm asking you about your statement that Christ fulfilled the Law. What was that Law? What did it say? I know my answer and I bet I know just about every Protestant's answer on this forum. I know my children's answer and my pastor's answer and our neighbor's answer. They all have a really good and clear answer to that question.
Perhaps you regret referencing Matthew 5:17. Do you want to withdraw your statement that Christ came to fulfill the Law, since you are struggling (or somehow refusing) to say what that Law was?
What was the Law Christ came to fulfill, Kosta? Since some would say this is the heart of the Gospel, the reason for Christ's life and death and resurrection, it's not a foolish question, but one which all Christians should be able to answer.
What was the Law Christ came to fulfill?
That's more information than I asked. In fact, I didn't ask you anything.

Of course not. Why do you think I regret it?

Of course not. ? And, I am not struggling. I know the answer, straight from the Bible. Our Lord Jesus Christ and the Apostles tell us very clearly (1) why Christ came to earth, (2) what is the Law and the Prophets, and (3) what it means to fulfill the Law.
(1) "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill." [Mat 5:17]
(2) "In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
(3) "Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. [Rom 13:8]
"Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law." [Rom 13:10]
"For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'" [Gal 5:14]
"Bear one another's burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ." [Gal 6:2]
"If, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself' you are doing well. [Jam 2:8]
He came to teach us Love, and He left with a commandment "that you love one another, just as I have loved you." [John 15:12]
The reason He was on earth: "In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins." [1 John 4:10]
He came to show that love wins; that love is eternal; that love transforms the world, where a lion lies next to a sheep.
It's not so surprising as it is awesome. For, what else can Love do?
