If the Torah is our school master to bring us to Christ, then once we're in Christ, we no longer need it. It job is finished.
We are no longer obligated to obey it to maintain a right relationship with God because that's not how a right relationship with God is maintained under the new covenant.
All the blessings and curses of the OT do not apply to born again believers because God is dealing with people in a new way, the way of Christ, instead of the old way with the letter of the Law.
It's no longer *If you do this, then I'll do that.*
NOW it's grace and mercy, us being seated in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit in us, who is the guarantee of our redemption until we acquire possession of it, that we are washed and cleansed and forgiven, having the righteous requirements of the Law met for us and in us by virtue of the fact of being in Christ, being credited to our account.
Torah is for the criminal... The lawless ones. Those who sin. It is there to show what sin is.
We are no longer obligated to obey it to maintain a right relationship with God because that's not how a right relationship with God is maintained under the new covenant.
But if we love YHWH, we will keep his commandments. And His commandments are not grievous.
All the blessings and curses of the OT do not apply to born again believers because God is dealing with people in a new way, the way of Christ, instead of the old way with the letter of the Law.
No, the curses do not apply. There is nothing that says the blessings don't remain.
It's no longer *If you do this, then I'll do that.*
Oh, but yes, it is - The ONLY thing that stands between you and destruction is a covering of the 'Better Blood'.
NOW it's grace and mercy, us being seated in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit in us, who is the guarantee of our redemption until we acquire possession of it, that we are washed and cleansed and forgiven, having the righteous requirements of the Law met for us and in us by virtue of the fact of being in Christ, being credited to our account.
It has always been about grace and mercy. And if we love YHWH, we will keep his commandments.
