Jesus said if you love Him, you would keep His commandments, which includes the moral law of the Old Testament. The rest of the law has been abrogated. When Paul is talking about the law he’s talking about the Jewish Law, that consisted of far more than morals. The Judizers were insisting converts has to keep the whole Mosaic Law.

The real old testament law is the exact same as the only one Jesus gave in the new. But the false pen of the scribes made it into falsehood. On top of that, who are you to decide what in the old law is moral or legal or ritual? That is your own division. That is picking and choosing from a list of works, and judging others by it, not upholding a real morality.

The apostles, whom Jesus told to spread the gospel, told us what He taught, and we have historical records.

The end times is really a bad choice to be a heretic in.

But most of them are forgeries by church fathers. They are full of second-century words and ideas. And many of them still give their opinions and interpretations beyond simply what they were told. Because we already have that, the gospel books.
