@cable_extreme: All i can do is show the scriptures that say who the 10 Commandments were written to:
Exodus 20: 1
And God spoke all these words:
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
3 “You shall have no other gods before[a] me.
Who did god bring out of Egypt? Out of the land of Slavery?
Exodus 19:3 Then Moses went up to God, and the Lord called to him from the mountain and said, “This is what you are to say to the descendants of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel:
It plainly states who the commandments were for. below you will see how first century Christians regarded the laws of Moses.
Galations 4:10 You are trying to earn favor with God by observing certain days or months or seasons or years. I fear for you. Perhaps all my hard work with you was for nothing. Dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to live as I do in freedom from these things, for I have become like you Gentiles—free from those laws.
Galations 3:19
Why, then, was the law given? It was given alongside the promise to show people their sins. But the law was designed to last only until the coming of the child who was promised.
The law expired with the coming of Jesus
The key words are teach people of ALL nations.... To obey what I have commanded you.
And what laws did Jesus command them to obey?
‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[c]38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[d]40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
I never said Christians can't obey the 10 commandments. I said they are not OBLIGATED to. If they follow these two new commandments there is no need to follow the 10 commandments because these two new laws cover the 10 commandments.
