Torah is still Valid

John Doe that is sad to hear that you don’t believe all of YHWH’s laws / Torah is still valid. As I see it the world needs them all, and part of the reason the world is so messed up is because they don’t keep them as prophesied in the New Testament.

Matthew 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

Keep in mind that iniquity is breaking of the law.

1 John 3:4
A Whosoever committeth sin
B transgresseth [lawlessness] also the law:
C for sin is the transgression [violating] of the law.

Mosiah (RLDS 26:29) (RLDS 11:137-138)
A Therefore I say unto you, Go; and whosoever TRANSGRESSETH against Me [YHWH],
-B him shall ye judge according to the SINS which he has committed;
–C and if he CONFESS his sins before thee and Me [YHWH],
-B and REPENTETH in the SINCERITY of his HEART,
A him shall ye FORGIVE, and I [YHWH] will FORGIVE him also.

Also Yeshua stated that ALL, not some or most but ALL, the LAW [Torah] and prophets are based on love. How YHWH wants us to love Him and others.

Matthew 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the LAW [TORAH] and the PROPHETS.

Not to mention what Yeshua said about breaking the LEAST [SMALLEST] of the commandments, not the greatest and most imporant, but the LEAST [SMALLEST].

Matthew 5:19
AA Whosoever therefore shall BREAK one of these LEAST [SMALLEST] commandments,
AB and shall teach men so,
AC he shall be called the LEAST [SMALLEST] in the kingdom of heaven:
BA but whosoever shall DO
BB and teach them,
BC the same shall be called GREAT in the kingdom of heaven.

Then again in the last part of the Sermon on the Mount/at the Temple.

Matthew 7:21-23
AA 21 Not every one that saith unto Me,
A-B Lord [YHWH], Lord [YHWH],
A-B shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;
AA but he that DOETH the will of my Father which is in heaven.
-BA 22 Many will say to Me in that day,
-BB Lord [YHWH], Lord [YHWH],
–CA have we not prophesied in Thy Name?
–CB and in Thy Name have cast out devils?
–CC and in Thy Name done many wonderful works?
-B 23 And then will I profess unto them,
AA I never knew you:
AB depart from me,
AC ye that work iniquity [lawlessness].

Now I know many question what is the law / Torah now, but there was no question back then. But since Yeshua is YHWH, and YHWH gave the law / Torah, Yeshua stated those who love Me KEEP My commandments.

John 14:21
A He that HATH My commandments,
-B and KEEPETH them,
–C he it is that loveth Me:
—D and he that loveth Me
—D shall be loved of my Father,
–C and I will love him,
-B and will MANIFEST
A Myself to him.

Later the apostles had to deal with pretenders and taught that if people claim to know the Messiah and break His laws, they are liars.

1 John 2:3-6
AA 3 And hereby we do know
AB that we know Him,
AC IF we keep His commandments.
-BA 4 He that saith, I know Him,
-BB and keepeth not His commandments,
-BC is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
-BA 5 But whoso keepeth His word,
-BB in him verily is the love of God [Elohim] perfected:
-BC hereby know we that we are in Him.
AA 6 He that saith he abideth in Him
AB ought himself also so to walk,
AC even as He walked.

Not to mention how the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith make it clear that YHWH does not change His ways. 2 Nephi (LDS 29:7-9) (RLDS 12:55-63) makes it clear it doesn’t change for groups of people or for time.

2 Nephi (LDS 29:7-9) (RLDS 12:55-63)
A 7 Know ye not that there are more NATIONS than one?
-B Know ye not that I, the Lord [YHWH] your God [ELOHIM], have CREATED ALL MEN,
–C and that I REMEMBER those who are upon the ISLES OF THE SEA;
—D1 and that I RULE in the heavens above and in the earth beneath;
—D2 and I BRING FORTH my WORD unto the children of men,
—-E yea, even upon all the NATIONS of the earth?
—–F 8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall RECEIVE MORE of my WORD?
——G Know ye not that the TESTIMONY of TWO NATIONS is a WITNESS unto you that I am GOD [ELOHIM],
——G that I REMEMBER one NATION like unto ANOTHER?
—–F Wherefore, I SPEAK THE SAME WORDS UNTO ONE NATION LIKE UNTO ANOTHER.
—-EA And when the two NATIONS shall run TOGETHER
—-EB the testimony of the two NATIONS shall run TOGETHER also.
—D1 9 And I do this that I may PROVE unto many that I AM THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER;
—D2 and that I SPEAK FORTH my WORDS according to mine own pleasure.
–C And because that I have spoken one word YE NEED NOT SUPPOSE THAT I CANNOT SPEAK ANOTHER;
-B for MY [YHWH ELOHIM] WORK is not yet finished;
A neither shall it be until the end of MAN, neither from that time henceforth and forever.

—How it may be asked was this known to be a bad angel? … by his contradicting a former revelation.
Joseph Smith, Times and Seasons 3, April 01 1842, page 747

Adam didn’t understand everything either, but when he was OBEDIANT, he was taught.

Moses 5:6-7
AA 6 And after many days an angel of the Lord [YHWH] appeared unto Adam, saying:
AB Why dost thou offer sacrifices unto the Lord [YHWH]?
-B And Adam said unto him:
–C I know not,
–C save the Lord [YHWH] commanded me.
-B 7 And then the angel spake, saying:
AA This thing is a similitude
A-B of the sacrifice of the Only Begotten of the Father,
AA which is full of grace and truth.

You won’t UNDERSTAND until after you DO. YHWH doesn’t give His wisdom to the disobedient, as I talk about in Catch and Understand quoting scriptures and Joseph Smith.

One example is people complain about health problems, well, FYI scientific studies have shown that unkosher food is significantly more toxic and when you take in toxic food it causes health problems and slowly kills you.

Thou shalt not murder (including yourself slowly from eating toxic food)
Kosher
