Jesus fulfilled the Law – what does this mean for those who honor Him as Messiah?

Jesus fulfilled the Law…so what does this mean for those who honor Him as Messiah?

Discussion,

Jesus fulfilled the Law just as He said in v.17 of Matthew 5…He is the only One genomically capable of accomplishing same as Jesus circumvented the Adamic sin-nature via the virgin birth (Romans 5:12; Matthew 1:23).

Jesus kept the Law for us, He fulfilled it and He offers us His righteousness, His perfection, gifted-imputed into our life when we trust in Him as our Messiah (2 Corinthians 5:21) and consequently the Father deems us “not guilty” by New Covenant promise (Hebrews 8:12) and the Father guarantees this promise by Gifting the redeemed in Jesus with the Holy Spirit who is Guarantor of New Covenant promise, forever (Ephesians 1:13-14).

IT IS NOT our righteousness or servitude to Torah, Sinai, Moses, days or diets that makes us “right” with Elohim but it is by grace, a divine gift in response to faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), that engenders New Covenant with the Father (Hebrews 10) and we honor the Father subsequent faith in Messiah through obedience to the indwelling Spirit (Galatians 5:16) who enlivens the “spiritual law” written upon our heart; this, in combination with the “new creation” in Messiah; a “new creation” having manifest via a redeemed conscience (2 Corinthians 5:17) and it is the indwelling Spirit who “works” and produces “fruit” through us, divine fruit – against which there is no Law (Galatians 5:22-23) as this divine fruit fulfills ALL LAW; both, Spiritual and Codified; consequently, this New Covenant reality has absolutely NOTHING to do with Sinai or Moses or Torah but is rooted in a Gospel ordained “before Time began” (Romans 6:14; 2 Timothy 1:8-10).

Jews/Israelite’s insist the New Covenant belongs only to Israel, the Gentile is excluded; what is the Truth?

Jews and Israelite’s insist that the New Covenant was given only to Israel; therefore, the Gentile is excluded; what is the truth? (Ezekiel 36; Jeremiah 31)

Discussion,

The promise to Abraham by Elohim is inclusive of “every family of the Earth;” this, long before Jacob and the 12-Tribes (Genesis 12:3b). Israel was foreordained to be ministers of the Gospel, the Great Commission and Messiah came directly to them for this specific purpose (Matthew 15:24), but Israel rejected their Messiah and conspired to murder Him upon a tree while exclaiming that Messiah’s blood be upon them and their children (Matthew 27:25); Israel rejected the Gospel and the Great Commission (Matthew 23:37); therefore, Elohim pivoted eschatologically and gave the Gospel and the Great Commission to the Gentile (Romans 11:25; Acts 13:46); therefore, only a “remnant” of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due their unbelief, rejection of Yeshua as Messiah (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27); apparently, Torah is not a path to righteousness (Galatians 2:16; Romans 3:20) other than as a roadmap pointing Israel to their need for Messiah by faith (Galatians 3:24).
