I am writing this because I see an awful lot of talk about the difference between the "10 Commandments" and the "Other Commandments" (603 of them).

So I am going to ask a few simple questions of any believer in THE MESSIAH (The Christ).

***NOTE: The "substantial portion" in this hub that appears on the web elsewhere are just bible verses and I did not steal anything.***

1. Can you please read these over and tell me which one is not held up in the New Testament for a believer in Yahshua (Jesus)???

2. See if Paul, Peter, James or John taught other wise.
   

3. Find one that you want to toss out and think of as no good.

4. Can you see any you did not know about and are happy to know now?
   

5. Check one that would make you worse off for doing or believing.

6. How many are done in this country by believers to this day.

7. Do you think that any society would do well to follow these instructions?
8. Is it not obvious that many non believers follow these instructions?
9. If you found a person that ignored them, would you not feel outrage?
10. How many of these do you know? And how many of the 10 do you know?
    

None of these have to do with eating or drinking the unclean things, or sacrifices, or washing your self, or Rabbinical laws, or praying so many times a day, or-or-or. These are just things to live by, that I have been told by others are "COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY FOR THOSE UNDER GRACE." They just want to toss out all the commandments except the 10 that GOD wrote by HIS own finger. The rest HE told Moses to write down. GOD did indeed give them all though.

• I have just found that people go on and on about how we are under grace and have no need to follow and instructions from GOD except those first 10. But nobody really ever reads them before they say toss them in the trash.

• Strange that "spell check" does not let you type the word "torah" without it being CAPITALIZED. Even spell check respects her.

So read these and if you are under grace and feel no need for these in your life, then disobey them and teach others to do so on the spot and see if you do not have total ...ANARCHY!!!

One commandment we never violate is not even in the 10 or the other books so to speak, it is found in Geneses. 1:28 "be fruitful and multiply"...now we always are willing to do that. I bet ya did not know that this is the very 1st commandment given.

I can't imagine a mans wife saying to him "COME ON HONEY, LET'S BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY!!!"...RIGHT NOW TOO!!! And the man saying "no, that's OK, I gotta see the game" Men like this kind of math, multiplication!!!

Here is a short list compiled by another brother who is a Christian.
