"The Old Testament ,Ten Commandments & Qorbanot" (Series: B / Part:1)

Shalom Brothers & Sisters!
I would first love to start by stating that I am a believer of the Holy Trinity. With that said... Let's begin.
Jesus did state that he did not come to CHANGE the law, but to fulfill it (Matthew 5:17). He did not need to join any sacrificial party because he WAS the ULTIMATE sacrifice, that put an end to all rituals, an end to needing to confess sins to Prophets, Pope's, Priest's or anyone who is not God, for we have Jesus (perfect, clean, spotless LAMB) that intercedes for us. For no man shall go to the Father but through him.
When he healed the sick and provided to the needy, he did it not thinking about the days but in doing his Father's work. And in doing so, he was not going to be limited by Saturday when there is a need, when someone is clamoring out for HELP! THE Sabbath cannot stop GOD! He is Jehova Yira who provides whenever, wherever and however.
I believe --(after many searching, questioning God)-- that Jews and Christians have been at ends with each other for 1 reason... "The Ten Commandments" which God said:
Hebrews 8:10 Aramaic Bible
�But this is The Covenant that I shall give to the family of the house of Israel: After those days, says THE LORD JEHOVAH, I shall put my law in their minds and upon their hearts I shall write it, and I shall be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.�
I believe that he was not only speaking about the law he established, but also about who will bring it forth as a blessing to his nation. . . I believe that he was speaking about his Son and who in his absence wrote it in our hearts and mind with the HOLY SPIRIT.
Without the law (Commandments) we would not have any respect for each other; let alone know how to treat one another. For we would have REVERTED BACK into our forefathers (by inheritance) who left EGYPT but we're still corrupt because they were just merely children, relearning how to walk, talk, LIVE again (hence the commandments were given to set order.)
I have also noticed that we (Jews/Believers in Christ) forget what Sabbath is about... The real Sabbath, the kind that God really intended "Remembering creation, Glorifying the Creator"
Is not that Jesus forgot the Sabbath, HE IS the Sabbath. He just refused to keep it the way the Sadducees and the Pharisees did which was the OPPOSITE of the following:
Deut 4:2 Jubilee Bible 2000
"Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish anything from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you."
Which in turn split the Jews apart still till this day.
It's not the SABBATH that keeps our brothers from the law, it's the following:
�Qorbanot: Sacrifices and Offerings. http://www.jewfaq.org/m/qorbanot.htm
�Not believing that Jesus is the Messiah.
�The influence of the Sadducees/Pharisees that left an impression/bad mark.
I believe that the Qorbanot has ended in Jesus. I also believe that it has been seized by God to deter our Jewish brothers and Sisters from doing it.
So my Brothers and Sisters, I hope that you also dissect his word, ALL of it which entails the OLD Testament which is the TESTAMENT for the NEW covenant of promise in Jesus.
What do you think???
++++ As always, let's be respectful of each others opinions, asking God for guidance ++++

Hello
I believe the Jews and Gentiles cannot come to Messiah unless the Father draws them.
John 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
As far as the Sabbath,the sacrifices,types and shadows,everything within the temple,and the chief cornerstone of the temple have been fulfilled in Yesuha,that is why there are no animal sacrifices today,and there are no longer any types and shadows,no physical temple,and nothing contained within the temple are necessary for Faithing into Messaih.
Yeshua FILLED UP,the law,and its sacrifices,He also filled up that which was lacking within the types and shadows,and everything within the temple.
The law was powerless to save man,all the law brings is condemnation,
Grace and truth come by Yeshua ha Messhiach.
Had the law been able to make a man perfect,there would have been no need for Yeshua to go to Calvary
G5055
τελέω
teleō
tel-eh'-o
From G5056; to end, that is, complete, execute, conclude, discharge (a debt): - accomplish, make an end, expire, fill up, finish, go over, pay, perform.

" As far as the Sabbath,the sacrifices,types and shadows,everything within the temple,and the chief cornerstone of the temple have been fulfilled in Yesuha,that is why there are no animal sacrifices today..."
Though I do agree with the above comment, not everyone (non- believers) would agree that 'that is the reason why sacrifices were stopped.
"Do Jews want to resume sacrifices?
Orthodox�Jews do. There are several places in our�daily prayer services where we pray for the restoration of the Temple�and the resumption of its rituals, including the rituals of sacrifice. The Orthodox�Yom Kippur�service includes a lengthy recollection of the Temple service, mourns its loss and longs for its restoration. Other movements�of Judaism have removed these portions from the liturgy."

<< I believe --(after many searching, questioning God)-- that Jews and Christians have been at ends with each other for 1 reason... "The Ten Commandments"�
�Without the law (Commandments) we would not have any respect for each other; let alone know how to treat one another >>
Under the old covenant the law was given in the form of a written package (Ten Commandments).
Under the new covenant the law is given in the form of a living person (Jesus Christ).
Under the new covenant we abide, not by the commands of the written package, but by the commands of the living person.
�He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant � not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.� � (2 Cor 3:6).

I completely agree. That's why rituals are no longer needed because Jesus is the perfect complete package.
I believe that a lot of people confuse the many other things that non believing Jews still performance with the commandments that Jesus himself said he was not changing but putting in action.
I guess is just the type of people in my area that does not understand it.
This is why we must also study the MANY Jewish traditions in order to categories and weed-out the confusion.
