He set me free

The point that I was making when I asked you, where does the Ten Commandments judge or condemn me? I was thinking you would say, "they cannot." Neither can the Judicial Law judge or condemn me. Neither does GOD judge and condemn me at this point. Only because He is not imputing sin to me, because I am dead to sin and I cannot live in it.

Rom 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
Rom 6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

We as believers are dead to the nature of sin. If I am not in the nature, I cannot develop it's fruits. The fruit of the nature of sin is sin. The fruit of the nature of Righeousness, is righteousness.

When I was alive in the nature of sin, I brought forth the fruit of sin, but I am no longer alive to the nature of sin spiritual speaking. And I am no longer under/justified by the law that imputed in to me.

Rom 7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions/influence of sins, which were by the law, did work in our body to bring forth "fruit" unto death. (the wages of sin is death)
Rom 7:6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.

Thank for that... I am very new at this and this is my first interaction posting anything to this degree online. I just happen to see this post and asked the question what does it mean to be made free. I don't believe people know what it means to be made free, this is why I bit.
 
Lastly disobience of the first commandment can condemn someone. Consider what I said earlier and also consider the sum of the law and the prophets. In the grand scheme of things when we say otherwise we do seem hypocritical in my opinion.
 
i see what your saying, but I do not think you understand that I'm saying, we must LOVE, which is keeping the commandments, All of the TEN COMMANDMENTS, except the judicial law (which judged you and told you you sinned), the sacrificial law and the ceremonial law. I don't think you see that I'm saying the 10 are relavent. I don't think you see that I'm saying, the law is not and cannot condemn us at this jucture in our walk because of GOD's Grace. Grace abounds, not sin. You cannot see sin because of Grace which is light overshadowing the darkness. Beliver are in the body of Christ where there is no sin. Jesus does not see us in the flesh, but He sees us in the spirit through faith.

It seems like you don't see the 10 commandments or love of the Creator as a law. Some people just see it as obedience or fruits of the sport which is fine. Others also see it as Law or works which I suspect is also fine.

If that is the case I don't think their is any comtention or disagreement.

Paul said certain things a certain way as to encourage and spread the gospel more efficiently.
