No doser. Don't do it. Do you really need Jesus to confirm the morality of not killing, stealing, and adultery? Are you in the 2nd grade or what?

we have to try
and
we have to ask for help to do that

Do you then believe that all commands of God are law?
I'm not sure what you mean. I actually don't know what you mean.
What are you saying? What does not what?
That is the "Old Testament". All the law hangs on it. If you really loved your neighbor as yourself you would not covet his things, steal, murder and rape.
Excellent verse. Let's discuss it along with something else.
James 2
21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?
By works Abraham was justified. James is asking a rhetorical question. Abraham was circumcised at the time. That is key to understanding what Paul is getting at.
Galatians 3
2 This only I want to learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 3 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?
See the difference?
22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

3 Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?
Why do you suppose their claims are the exact opposite? Of course I already mentioned it, but some want to deny the obvious.
The kingdom of God is not based on eating and drinking, however, it is based on obedience to God who instructed the people of Jacob not to eat certain things. Since God doesn't play favorites, his instructions about food would apply to people today.
What do you think was agreed on at Jerusalem?
I don't know what you are saying here now, either. I have no idea what you are asking me.
