You understand this to mean an abolition of the Ten Commandments?

As a condition for salvation??? Absolutely...Unlike the O.T. saints, the Ten Commandments are to teach us, not to condemn us...We are subject to the commandments out of love, not debt...

If you truly love God and love your neighbor, you will fulfill the Ten commandments...Not because you want to or have to...It will be automatic...

Yet subject we are, right? The Commandments describe our fundamental obligations towards God and neighbor. Failing to fulfill those obligations will condemn us. Or am I missing something?

If you truly love God and love your neighbor, you will fulfill the Ten commandments.

Correct.

"Love" as St. Paul says, is the greatest of the three virtues.
