The below would be the essence of what you're saying, Judy. We don't need God's law anymore, it was abolished by Christ on the cross. We certainly aren't fearing God when we aren't obeying, instead making up our own man-made ways of worshipping Him, rather than the way He told us to do it. We've figured out and our plan is so much better than His, wouldn't you agree? Sounds like it to me, otherwise, why not do as He says to do in His commands?? Kay
 
Why would God, restore the old carnal regulations and practices when something far better, with transcendent promises, has arrived?  God has made everything new!  The new order eclipses the old regulations and practices, which were only shadows of the good things to come  (Heb. 10:1).

     To put it another way, why would God return to the Old after having created the New? This would be regression, not progression.  Or, why would God retreat by reinstating the carnal when He has resurrected the spiritual?  Why would any believer want to surrender his spiritual status in this new age and return to the carnal, external, and legalistic arrangement under Moses?  Well, why?
