GUIDELINES?
Like choose one from column A one from Column B?
If we are so much under grace, why was Jesus Christ tuffer than the LAW?
Why did he add to it?
MATT 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 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. 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. 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. Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, (TEN CMDS EX 20:13) Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his
brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
(TEN CMDS Ex 20:14)
27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Law condemns Adulterers - Jesus condemns Adulterers & those who look to lust after
Law condemns Murderers - Jesus condemns Murderers & those that are angry w/o a cause with a brother

When you said that God is not a legalist, you said this in the context of
how the commandments of Scripture are guidelines and do not necessarily have
to be followed.
Peace be with you.
