My People Are Destroyed for Lack of Knowledge
Jesus did not destroy the law but was the fulfillment of the prophetic words in them regarding Himself. All that believe in Christ, are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses (Acts 13:39). Furthermore in the rest of Mathew chapter five, continuing on until the end of chapter seven, Jesus establishes His New Covenant law which clearly replaces the old law given to Moses.
2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
The law was our instructor to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by our faith in Him. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under the old law, but have in fact been redeemed from the curse therein through Christ. All who are in Christ are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise (Gal 3:10-14, 21-29).
Matt 7:26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
Those who set about to establish their own righteousness through the works of the law, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. Christ is become of no effect unto those who claim to be justified by the law, as they are fallen from grace (Gal 5:4, Rom 10:3-4).
Luke 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
The New Law of Christ foretold in the Old Testament
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
The redeemed of the Lord shall return unto Zion, these are God’s people in whose heart is His law (Isa 51:7, Isa 2:2-17, Isa 51:4-11, Mic 4:1-3).
Isaiah 59:21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.
None were justified by the law of Moses, but all can be justified by the new law of Christ.
John 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
The judaizers would have you believe that they are justified by the old law which is a blatant lie, and many gullible Christians buy into this false teaching as well (Acts 15:5-11).
The problem for many religious people, is self-righteousness unto dead works. No one can be justified by the old law, as the new law of Christ is the only option available.
Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
The righteousness of God without the law, is another mystery to those who are blind to the gospel of the new law of Christ.
Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
So go ahead and boast in your law of dead works, we who are in the Faith will boast in the new law of Christ.
Rom 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Rom 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
We establish the new law of Christ through our faith in Him.
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
We are not to mix the Old Testament Law, that did not have the power to set us free, with the new law of Christ that does.

Mattithyahi 5: 18,19 “For, truly, I say to you, till heaven and the earth pass away (hasn’t happened yet), one yod or one tittle shall be no means pass from the Torah till all be done. 19 Whoever, then, breaks one of the least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called Least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches them, shall be great in the reign of the heavens.” Quote for Yahushua Messiah.
The Renewed Covenant is the Law written on our hearts . You say we are not to mix “Old Covenant” law with the “New Law of Christ”?
