So the clear thrust of the epistles Is that the Law of Moses, including the 10 commandments, have been rendered inoperative.
Please read Ephesians 2:11-16 and 3:6. The point Paul makes is that GOD has made certain covenants exclusively with the nation of Israel. In fact, there are 4 eternal unconditional covenants that God has made with the elect nation which is the Abrahamic, the Land, the Davidic and the New Covenant. All of God's blessings, spiritual and material, are mediated through these covenants, which are eternal and unconditional.
Paul all points out that God added a fifth covenant which was temporary and conditional. This was the Mosaic Covenant comprising the Mosaic Law. According to Ephesians 2:15 the Law of Moses served as a " Wall of partition" to keep the Gentiles away from enjoying Jewish spiritual blessings. In the Old Testament if a Gentile wished to become partakers of Jewish spiritual blessings he would have to take upon himself the entire obligation of the Law, be circumcised if a male, and live as any other Jew lived. A great example is Uriah the Hittite. Only a Gentile proselyte to Biblical Judaism under the Law could enjoy the spiritual blessings of the Jewish Covenants.
Obviously, if the Law of Moses still applied then all the negative truths of these verses would still apply.
Now, however, we see the blessings of Ephesians 3:6 are a wonderful reality. Notice that the evil theology of Amillennialism Is a lie, just from.this verse.
The Church, far more evil than the nation of Israel, are not taker overs but partakers. I would recommend. anyone to get the teaching of Arnold on Romans 9-11 from Ariel Ministries.Strangely enough, he only teaches from the scriptures themselves!!
We see from the New Testament, therefore, that Hebrew and Gentiles are not under the Law of Moses. The new code since Acts 2 is called THE LAW OF CHRIST in Galatians 6:2 and in Romans 8:2 it is called THE LAW OF THE SPIRIT OF LIFE.
Of course, although the code of conduct for believers is different since Acts 2 than from Exodus 20 to the Cross, many of the 613 laws are in. The Law of Christ, but also many are not. We no longer offer blood sacrifices as Jesus is the final blood sacrifice for all sins. 9 of the 10 commandments of Exodus 20 have been included, all except the Sabbath law.
