Matthew 5:17-20

Christ came to fulfill the Law.

[dimwithuka]

Deuteronomy 31:26 gives a clear distinction between what constitutes:

1. "the Law of Moses" and
2. "the Law of the Creator contained in the ARK"

Isaiah 42:21 may help those who get stuck in semantics of what it means to fulfill. Isaiah 42:21 tells us the mission of Messiah:
1. To MAGNIFY the Law (Ten Commandments!)
2. To make the Ten Commandment Law honourable!
In the old testament, murder was the actual act of taking a human life. In the New testament, Yeshua magnifies the Law and includes unjustified anger! Matthew 5:21-22.
Yeshua also touched the 7th Commandment on Adultery, saying you can commit Adultery with your eyes and thoughts!
There is another commitment Yeshua cleaned from the error of the pharisees.
The pharisees corrupted the 5th Commandment about honor due to parents. The pharisees taught that if your parents benefitted from you as their child, then you are free from observing that commandment. Thus, they made void the express Commandment of the Creator. What did Yeshua say? In vain they worshipped the Creator teaching for doctrine the traditions and Commandments of men! Mark 7:7.
There is another Commandment Yeshua cleaned up from the yeast of the pharisees. The Sabbath Commandment. Through the traditions and man made laws on how to observe the Sabbath, the Pharisees enslaved the people with their man-made rules and vain traditions! Thus, they made it look like man was made for the Sabbath when the opposite is how the Creator intended it to be. Thus, Yeshua reminded the Pharisees that the Creator made the Sabbath FOR Man! Mark 2:27. For the benefit of man! It's an Eternal Feast (Leviticus 23). Are you confused about how to keep the Sabbath? Messiah is the only example we have who congregated on the Sabbath (Luke 4:16).
However, you must take note of the foretold change of the Sabbath day foretold in Daniel 7:25 and Jubilees 6:30-38.
The Calendar we use today is NOT the Calendar the creator established in Genesis 1:14!
Suffice to say the Calendar of the Creator has 3 types of days: the New Moon Days, work days and Sabbath days! Numbers 10:10; Isaiah 66:23; Ezekiel 46:1).
Suffice to say Saturday and Sunday are not Sabbaths ordained by the creator because they are not in His Calendar!
The Creator's Calendar only numbers the days and months! The Creator's Calender has no names for days of the week or months!
The Calendar the world uses today is a Roman Calendar!
If therefore you are looking for the Sabbath day using any Calendar other than that of the creator, you will invariably get it wrong as explained in Jubilees 6:30-38!
The Creator ordained the Sun and the Moon as instruments for keeping time Genesis 1:14; Psalm 104:19.
The 10 Commandments Law is forever established in the heavenly temple as was revealed to John the Revelator (Revelation 11:19)!
Therefore, it is cardinal to understand what the Apostle Paul means each time he mentiions Law. What was nailed to the cross? Ordinances of Animal Sacrifice which received their fulfilment in Messiah! This is the reason we don't carry sheep and goats when going to church today!
Understanding Context is Key!

Matthew 5:17-20 Living Bible
17 “Don’t misunderstand why I have come—it isn’t to cancel the laws of Moses and the warnings of the prophets. No, I came to fulfill them and to make them all come true. 18 With all the earnestness I have I say: Every law in the Book will continue until its purpose is achieved.[a] 19 And so if anyone breaks the least commandment and teaches others to, he shall be the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But those who teach God’s laws and obey them shall be great in the Kingdom of Heaven.
20 “But I warn you—unless your goodness[b] is greater than that of the Pharisees and other Jewish leaders, you can’t get into the Kingdom of Heaven at all!

Matthew 5:17-20 King James Version
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

All of the commandments of The Moshe covenant still stands. But you have to understand all of them. Some are for men Some woman Some children some priests. So we talk about the 613 commandments. That is all split up one side Men and woman one side Priests. And then you thin it out again man, woman. The reason no animals are not offended anymore is because there is no temple to do that/ Yeshua was Ultimate sacrifice for the covenant he brought for the Lost sheep of Israël. Jeremiah 31:31. You have to be grafted into Israel to have advantages of the covenant that Yeshua brought for Israel. Now there is other offerings that still stand. But the Ox 🐂 and Lamb offering for sin will not be done anymore. Why because we can’t put Yeshua back on the stake. We shuva (repent) (turn 180deg) from our sin and go on with our lives. The whole ritual of offering was a picture to the Hebrews or Jews of the crucifixion of Yeshua or Mashiach. YahVeh Elohim does not break covenants. All covenants still stands today. By the way Yeshua did not bring a new covenant that canceled out all the old ones. He brought a renewed covenant. What is this covenant how does it look. In the Torah it gives a commandment that when one spouse committed adultery and you get divorced. You are not allowed to get re married unless the ex spouse dies.
YahVeh Divorced the House of Israel because they committed adultery. He sends His son to die on a stake so that He can re marry them. And now there is some awesome news!! The Gentiles can now also be part of Israel be born again. From Gentile to Israel to saved. Remember Jeremiah 31:31?
Yeshua’s main purpose to come is not to die for our sins. It was to open a door 🚪 for us to be forgiven.

Hello I’m confused about this in terms of salvation? Does this mean i have to keep the law as best as i can to get into heaven?

[Asegh]

But when you read it in Aramaic or Greek or Hebrew Sephardic Hebrew, it takes on new life and new meaning when you employ your willpower to actually understand it. And what “Isu” Jesus said, was the word Torah

[joeroux]

Never never!!! That’s wishful thinking! Yeshua can’t change the law sir. Because that means he changes . Yeshua does not change. He is the Torah. Law
