My friend ... while I have enjoyed your many articles refuting the doctrines of Rome, on this point you are dangerously close to antinomianism.
By seeking to distance yourself from Rome (yes, a good thing) you have focused on one or two passages at the exclusion of all the others. If all the commands in the NT are optional (and the vast majority were written to Gentiles churches) ... then faith toward God is optional ... for that is a NT command.
1 John 2:4 The one who says, "I have come to know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
Do you understand what John is saying? He is speaking to Gentile believers. He is addressing the believer who claims to know Him, yet does not keep His commandments. Doesn't sound like His commands are optional. John is saying that if your Christian life is characterized by disobedience to His commands ... you're probably not a believer in Him.
Slaves don't typically get to decide which commands of their master they want to obey.
