In Matthew 4:15-23, Christ began his ministry with the Gospel message to repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand, which was a light to the Gentiles, and the Mosaic Law was how his audience knew what sin is (Romans 3:20), so repenting from our disobedience to it is a central part of the Gospel message. Furthermore, Jesus set a sinless example of how to walk in obedience to the Mosaic Law, and we are instructed to follow his example (1 Peter 2:21-22), that those who are in Christ are obligated to walk in the same way he walked (1 John 2:6), and to be imitators of Paul he was an imitator of Christ (1 Corinthians 11:1). So it is not so much that we need to follow Christ and obey the Mosaic Law, but that obeying the Mosaic Law is the way to follow Christ. In other words, the Mosaic Law is God's word and following God's word is the way to follow God's word made flesh.
Blasphemy while keeping the law.

Notice he said, "righteousness which is in the Law."
The Law was given to the children of Israel. Gentile Christians were never 'under the Law.'
Misdirection.
It would be the "duty" of every Jew, not Christian.
Forget what others say. Saul was "blameless" in keeping the Law.
Here is wisdom:
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Mt 5:22.
Seems one can be angry WITH a cause and not violate the Law.
But I ask, "what judgment?" What is doing the "judging?"
Council [of men]? The Sanhedrin? Is that the "council" Jesus is referring?
And what is "hell fire?" Is that Gehenna?
Saul said he blasphemed, and I would say he means that after realizing the truth on the Damascus Road that what he believed was blameless, and that may be with regard to going after a sect called "the Way," that is when his blamelessness turned into blaspheming.
We have slang for it but if the Holy Spirit can say "dung" ["excrement"] I suppose we also can say "crap" and its derivatives. That would not be blaspheming.

I'm sorry.
It's just that I like the Lord's apostles to say the same thing as God and not change words of an OT prophecy to mean something different in a NT letter, or not to contradict themselves by saying one thing in one letter and saying the opposite in another.
Maybe Saul, like the rest of us, as baby Christians didn't have his early doctrine in the right places that by the time he wrote years later he might have learned the truth afterwards.
It's just the truth in me that hates liars.
But not everyone in the early centuries wanted certain letters of his added to the canon. Now, I may know why.
Carry on.
Saul wasn't exactly "blameless" in keeping the Law now was he?
The sixth commandment forbids direct and intentional killing as gravely sinful. The murderer and those who cooperate voluntarily in murder commit a sin that cries out to heaven for vengeance.
Paul persecuted, hated and even murdered Christians. Acts 8:3 indicates that, “…Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.” He himself admits he was at least complicit in murder when he is quoted in Acts 22:4 as saying, “I persecuted the followers of this Way to their death,…”.

Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is a grave offense that reflects a profound rejection of God's salvific work. It is not merely a sinful utterance but a deep-seated refusal to acknowledge the Holy Spirit's essential role in spiritual regeneration and reconciliation. It is also the Holy Spirit's purpose to not provide the salvation bought by the Son to this unchosen, unatoned, sinful people of whom by the will of God no forgiveness of sin has been offered.
Those who blaspheme against the Holy Spirit are typically individuals who have not received the gift of salvation and are therefore unfamiliar with the Holy Spirit's ministry. Their rejection of the Holy Spirit's work is a direct affront to God's plan of redemption and their presence in the world as the Holy Spirit applies salvation to God's ordained and forgiven people is an offense and total repudiation of the work of the Holy Spirit who share the world with them while God's people are being called and called to salvation.
The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, co-equal with God the Father and God the Son. He is the agent of spiritual regeneration, baptizing believers into Christ's body and bestowing upon them spiritual gifts. He is also the mediator of the New Covenant, sealing believers with the Holy Spirit and ensuring their eternal salvation.
When someone blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, they are essentially rejecting the very means by which salvation is made possible. They are denying the divine work of regeneration and the ongoing ministry of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers.
It is important to note that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is not merely a sin of the tongue. It is a sin of the heart, a deep-seated rejection of God's grace and mercy. This is why Jesus warned his disciples about the unforgivable sin of blaspheming the Holy Spirit (Mark 3:28-29). while God's chosen people through no will of their own are being called to salvation and eternal restoration with the Father through the Son in a new body changed from corruption to incorruption which God could only perform in the realm of time and the universe.
The blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is a serious offense that demonstrates a fundamental rejection of God's plan of salvation. It is a sin that is impossible to forgive, as it involves a deliberate rejection of the very means by which spiritual life is made possible.

You just condemned yourself by your own words of blasphemy against the work of the Holy Spirit in SAVING uncircumcised Jews and uncircumcised Gentiles and then Placing them Together in the Body of Adonai YAHshua HaMashiach = thru the Circumcision of the Ruach HaKodesh
Congratulations!
Hebrew king says:
Do not be overly righteous, Nor be overly wise: Why should you destroy yourself?
This saying has come to pass, Today, in your own post.

There is still Hope for you @jeremiah1five if you turn away from hating the Gentiles whom Adonai is SAVING by the Will of the FATHER, thru the Washing of the Blood of YAHshua and the WORK of Regeneration of the Ruach HaKodesh
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Sorry but you are wrong.
I hold that the three Hebrew covenants are between God, Abraham, and his seed, a people we know today as the children of Israel. There are no non-Hebrew Gentiles in the Hebrew covenants.
I also hold that mixed heritage people, like the Samaritans Jesus instructs to be accepted as Abrahm's seed no matter of there is a non-Hebrew Gentile parent somewhere in their ancestry. If they have at least one Hebrew parent, then they are Abraham's seed. Jesus' interaction with the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well was a half-Jew and half-Assyrian due to Assyrian conquest, intermarriage to survive, rape, concubinage, or slavery, and she most likely can tell you what tribe her parents were from or her grandparents. You don't know what you are talking (or writing) about because I never said non-Hebrew Gentiles are saved or had salvation offered to then because of this one fact that many here seem to overlook and love violating and breaking Scripture and that is that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit have covenant with Abraham and with his seed through Isaac, Jacob, Jacob's twelve sons and their descendants, a people identified in Scripture as the children of Israel.
God made no covenant with non-Hebrew Gentiles. NONE.
So, get the facts straight or be seen as a false accuser. The KJV word for that is "devil."
And it means "liar" or "someone who impugns the character of another through lies."
Are you a "devil"?

I don't hate non-Hebrew Gentiles. God does. And when Christ returns He comes to fight alongside Israel AGAINST non-Hebrew Gentiles and He wipes a great many of them off the face of the earth through extreme prejudice with fire from heaven for daring to touch His Bride and Church, the apple of His eye and His Chosen beloved people: the children of Israel.
You see, I am not infected as you are with Constantinian Gentile theology that teaches another gospel and one unmoored from its Hebrew roots and has stolen everything God gave to Israel even up to and including terms like "Bride" and "Church" and "saints" and their covenants. It's called inheritance theft. But in the end God will not let them get away with it. Once the truth Of God's covenants with Abraham and his seed is brought to the light by people like me and culminating with the two Hebrew witnesses of Revelation 11 there will be millions of non-Hebrew Gentiles in for a very rude and devastating awakening.
All those words were written to and for and about Israel. There is no Scripture in the Hebrew bible that says God loves non-Hebrew Gentiles. But there are many passages of God declaring His love for Israel. Here's one:
6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.
7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:
8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
Deut. 7:6–9.
First, it's a covenant love and it's called a marriage covenant with a Marriage Supper in the future.
Second, a thousand generations of Hebrews have not yet been born.
Third, God gave His commandments to the children of Israel called the Mosaic Covenant. God says He is a faithful God rich in mercy for His Chosen people Israel (vs. 6.)
God set Israel ABOVE all the peoples in the earth, even above the thieving non-Hebrew Gentiles.
God is going to keep the oath He made to Abraham and at the appointed time when Christ returns He will come while Israel is half-conquered and fight alongside Israel and turn the tide and destroy millions of Gentiles with the breath from His mouth. In the end fire from heaven falls and consumes all the non-Hebrew Gentiles when they fulfill the Gog and Magog prophecy and all Gentiles will be burned up along with their false religion, a religion that just may fulfill the Mystery Harlot Babylon. But I'm still looking into these prophecies and the Scripture and when I can prove those things through Scripture, I will post it.
There are no non-Hebrew Gentiles in any of the three Hebrew covenant (Abraham, Mosaic, and New.)
None.

JESUS is NEVER wrong jeremiah, HE loves you and so do i.
i have been praying for you, that you may be filled with God's love for all whom the FATHER calls.
The Word was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,
but that the world through Him might be saved.

I've been in Christ for nearly half a century. I know who I am, and I know the God of the Bible. You, on the other hand, post things that are just not biblical. You are seriously infected by Constantinian Gentile theology which for nearly 1900 years has been unmoored from true, biblical Hebrew Christianity and it shows.
Show me in Genesis 12, 15, and 17 God naming or mentioning non-Hebrew Gentiles in the Abraham Covenant.
No one here can because in the Abraham Covenant there are no non-Hebrew Gentiles in ANY of the three Hebrew Covenants. No Gentiles in the Abraham Covenant. No Gentiles in the Mosaic Covenant. And no Gentiles in the New Covenant. So, where do you get all this Jesus died to save non-Hebrew Gentiles? I know it's not in the bible and you have to break and violate Scripture to add then in through your erroneous interpretations of the New Covenant writings. None of the Jewish apostles taught non-Hebrew Gentiles are saved by the sacrifice under the Law of Christ, who as lamb of God was substituted for the animal sacrifice which under the Law was sacrificed to atone yearly for the sins of the children of Israel under the Mosaic Covenant. Jesus did not die for non-Hebrew Gentiles identified as "the world." Jesus Christ doesn't even pray for them (the world) at a time when as High Priest the time to pray for the Gentile world is right before God leads Him to His cross to sacrifice Him for the sins of the children of Israel, finally, and forever.
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
Jn 17:8–9.
Martin Luther calls this prayer in John 17 the Holy of Holies Prayer because Jesus as High Priest is about to be sacrificed according to the Law and if Gentiles were to be atoned, they would first for thousands of years been atoned under the Law BUT they were never under the Law and the animal sacrifices were slain for the children of Israel.
5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. Exodus 19:5–6.
No words like this were ever spoken by God to Gentiles.
Pay attention and receive the Word of God:
3 And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.
4 And Moses wrote all the words of the LORD, and rose up early in the morning, and builded an altar under the hill, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel.
5 And he sent young men of the children of Israel, which offered burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen unto the LORD.
6 And Moses took half of the blood, and put it in basons; and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.
7 And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.
8 And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people, and said, Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD hath made with you concerning all these words. Exodus 24:2–8.
The blood of the covenant which the LORD had made WITH YOU (the children of Israel)!!!
All those words just as all the words of the Holy Hebrew Scripture were spoken and written to and for the children of Israel. Genesis to Malachi is a record and history of God dealing with the seed of Abraham. Not Gentiles. Gentiles hated Israel, went to war against Israel, kept Israel in slavery, raped their women, killed their men and their children and God loves Gentiles? God says "TOUCH NOT MY ANOINTED AND DO MY PROPHETS NO HARM!
Israel is God's Bride and Church and the covenants He called Israel into is nothing but a marriage covenant. Israel is God's Beloved and the apple of His eye. Does God ever say such things to Gentiles?
NO, HE DOES NOT!
Get a clue!
Good Lord, man, are you that blind???

Calling yourself a christian is "Constantinian Gentile theology" in reality you are a Jew who hates the People of Elohim.
A man who knows the True Living Elohim speaks the things of Elohim.
Currently, on a daily basis, you speak as the serpent in the Garden by twisting Elohim's words with hate for the People of Elohim.
My posts only contain the words of Elohim when i share the Truth = Posts 27, 28, 29, 32
Today, i call upon Adonai YAHshua HaMashiach to judge between you and me as to who speaks the TRUTH with His love.
John 17 is the Prayer of HaMashiach for all who believe on Him in TRUTH = "Thy word is TRUTH"
HaMashiach is the High Priest who entered the Holiest of Holies in HEAVEN with His Blood which HE shed for the Nations whom Elohim created for His Glory.
HE continues to intercede on my behalf and for those who love Him= the People of Elohim.
It is written: Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the house of Elohim
Elohim's Promise to His People:
5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. Exodus 19:5–6.
ONLY by keeping the NEW Covenant of HaMashiach does one enter the Kingdom of the Love of His Dear SON.
Just as Moshe said: if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant
When you hate the People of Elohim, you are declaring yourself as more righteous then Elohim who SAVES us by the Precious Blood of HaMashiach.
Hating the People of Elohim is the work of satan.
Elohim's Promise FULFILLED: 1 Peter 2:1-9
Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture,
“Behold, I lay in Zion
A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame.”
Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient,
“The stone which the builders rejected
Has become the chief cornerstone,”
and
“A stone of stumbling
And a rock of offense.”
They stumble, being disobedient to the word, to which they also were appointed.
But you(People under the Brit Chadasha) are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.
It is written in the old covenant law: "Whoever works on the sabbath shall be put to death"
Under the Brit Chadasha, HaMashiach says: "Come to ME and I will give you REST"
Attempting to please Elohim by rejecting His Sabbath REST, which is for all Nations,
so that you can work on His Sabbath thru the old law is DEATH.
It is Written: You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from HaMashiach;
you have fallen away from grace.
If you turn your heart back to Grace and Truth, which is in HaMashiach, you will be SAVED.
It is Written: For the law was given through Moses, but Grace and Truth came through YAHshua HaMashiach.
May the Grace of our Savior Adonai YAHshua HaMashiach be upon His People Today for Strength to resist sin and the temptation to be under the old law of death.
May these words be spoken Today in the hearing of YAHshua HaMashiach and His Holy angels

The people of Elohim are Abraham and his seed. Why don't you believe the Scripture? You use bible terms like "Elohim" but when I post the Scripture that contradicts your beliefs and your theological perspective you disobey God's Word. You'd rather keep your pet theories and the Gentile teachings you receive. Here's an example. Tell me you agree with this passage that states the Abraham Covenant is between God, Abraham, and with his seed MINUS GENTILES:
7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee. Gen. 17:7.
The whole chapter describes God making covenant with Abraham and promising to extend it to his seed (Isaac.)
19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. Gen. 17:19.
Follow the family offspring because the seed after him (Isaac) is Jacob while God passed Esau, the firstborn who sold his birthright for a bowl of Cheerios. Follow the family offspring and notice God said of Isaac the same He told Abraham, that this was an "everlasting covenant," a covenant that passed down generation after genersation through this family seed all the way to today because it is an "everlasting covenant" God established with this family MINUS GENTILES. Now, if you can point to any non-Hebrew Gentiles in chapter 17 where "Gentiles" are named explicitly as part of the family covenant then you have an argument, otherwise you are wrong. There are no non-Hebrew Gentiles in this covenant for one major reason: non-Hebrew Gentiles do not come "out of thee" (Abraham.)
6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
Ge 17:6.
Two Hebrew parents (Abraham and his brother's daughter, Sarah) cannot have a child who is non-Hebrew. That's biologically impossible. Two Russian parents do not have Chinese children. So, address my statements and the Scripture that supports my statements, if you can. Let's see if you do this. Or else you'll just say I'm wrong and post something Saul said and submit your statements and interpretations that violate and break the Scripture already written in the Hebrew Scripture, something Jesus said, cannot be broken.
Address my statements and answer the Scripture I submit that supports my statements rather than avoid the Scripture I post and accuse me of something. You sound like a democrat who doesn't address policies and questions put to them like Harris did at the debate last week. And don't worry (I don't think you do) calling me "as a serpent" because in my walk I've been discipled to ignore lies and untruths and falsehoods. I'm a child of truth being taught the word of truth by the Spirit of Truth about the God is Truth. I hate liars - especially when they come in sheep's clothing spouting out lies and contradicting Scripture. Instead of addressing my statements you'd rather just call names and ignore the argument or discussion.
You should be very careful when you make such declarations like that. I did that once and the judgment I called upon my opponent - a true believer - God turned it on me and I suffered for my arrogance that I was right when I was wrong.
Yes, the blood was sprinkled on the altar, on the book of the covenant, and on the people (the children of Israel.) There is no passage of Scripture that the high priest sprinkled the blood upon non-Hebrew Gentiles. The sacrifice was the Yom Kippur and atonement was for one year and it was to atone for their sins of the children of Israel who were the children of Jacob who was the child of Isaac who was the child of Promise named Isaac. The covenant goes all the way back to Abraham and not Gentiles. Prove me wrong with Scripture from the Hebrew Scripture that is plainly read and recorded. Don't come at me with stupid interpretations of Saul or James because these men do not break Scripture and add Gentiles when there are NO GENTILES in any of the three Hebrew Covenants. Prove me wrong by using the Scripture where the covenants were made by God.
There you go. Those words were to and for the children of Israel. Do you see any Gentiles in that passage? Do you see any Gentiles having the blood of the sacrifice being sprinkled on them? I don't. Do you?
Prove me wrong.
I don't hate the children of Israel. Like President Truman once said about his political opponents when someone said, "Give 'em, hell, Harry!" He said, "I just post the truth, and they think it's hell!"
Yes, and Peter is quoting words in the Old Testament spoken to Israel, the people of Elohim. Right?
Exactly, and the children of Israel that were disobedient paid a terrible price for their obstinance. Now what?
Yes, and Peter is quoting the Old Testament and words spoken to the children of Israel. Are you saying they were spoken to Gentiles or that today they apply to Gentiles?
Jesus said, "I am LORD of the Sabbath." He also said that HE was that "rest." Those that enter into His rest under the New Covenant speak in tongues but not everyone come to His 'rest.' Just like not everyone is an apostle. Or not everyone is a pastor or teacher.
And in what way were they trying to justify the Law? Do you know? The answer is in the same verses you quote. Go ahead...tell me. HOW were they trying to justify the Law?
That's true, but so is that grace comes from the Law, too.
Do you understand this or are you going to drop into "letter of the Law" and accuse me of something and not prove me wrong?

i will take one of your comments at a time for COMPARISON & CLARIFICATION of the TRUTH, which is only found in the Holy Scriptures.
#1. - Who was Peter when he wrote his Epistles?
a.) a Hebrew under the old law
b.) a Hebrew under the Brit Chadasha
the only CORRECT answer is (b) = Jeremiah 31:31-34 , John1:16-18 , Galatians chapter 2
What did Peter say was the QUALIFICATION for Acceptance of people to become the People of Elohim???
Your answer can be derived from either/or both the 1st Epistle and/or 2nd Epistle of Peter
Your answer must come from the Apostle Peter's own words, as written in either of His two Epistles.

The answer is "A." He never taught as you do the Old Testament Hebrew Scripture is "abolished" or "obsolete."
He was a Jew under the Law and continued his observance and obedience to God under the Law. Jesus never taught as you do the Hebrew Scripture is "abolished" or "obsolete." His Word is eternal and lives and abides forever.
God is the Great Qualifier. Salvation is of the LORD, not of men, nor of his will. God holds the all the cards. It's called the book of life of the Lamb slain from [BEFORE] the foundation (creation) of the world. So, anyone not Hebrew is asped out.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 1 Pe 1:3.
Children born to parents have no say over their birth. Children born of God have no say over their birth. God is not waiting around to see who will "accept Jesus into their hearts." He's actively involved in calling out man sons (and daughters) to Himself of the seed of Abraham.

People do not reject anything. God calls and people respond. Without fail. And from that moment on He raises them up, teaches them His Word and His Law, His Sovereignty, His glory, and His power. He teaches them His mercy and care. He teaches them all about Himself and all about the person being saved and of others saved or not. He opens eyes and "hearts" and minds, and He fills each one up with Himself. He is and I accept that in all I do and speak. As David said, "where can I go from your presence?"
Nowhere.

You have one CORRECT answer so far and it is a Glorious One!!!
1 Peter 1:3 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Question: What had to take place BEFORE YAHsua HaMashiach Rose from the dead???
Remember now, you can only answer from the Apostle Peters own words from either his 1st or 2nd Epistles or both.
