Let's talk about the commandments.
"But, Jesus came and abolished all the old ways and gave us a new way."
And if you continue to read on to Matthew 22:40 ~
"On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."
Also, in the New Testament -
Romans 13:9 ~
For this, thou shall not commit adultery, Thou shall not kill, Thou shall not steal,
Thou shall not bear false witness, Thou shall not covet and if there be any other commandment it is briefly comprehend in this, saying, namely, thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself.
Even in the New Testament - the commandments of old are repeated.
Jesus came to bring the laws to life, to bring us forgiveness and make the ultimate sacrifice on the alter - for us. He came to give us a spirit, that would give us the power to overcome the temptations. He didn't come to abolish the laws of old.
Blessed by God
