The Torah is for today, Christ never done away with the Torah; instead He brought the fullness of the Torah, and at the Feast of Pentecost was a new day for the Torah through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the Lord is restoring the Torah to the Church in our generation, to prepare the way for the salvation of Israel. –(Matt. 5:17)

In Christ we can walk in the fullness of the Torah, the Torah does not save, we are save only by grace and faith in Christ, and however in Christ the Torah is reborn under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. When you come to know Christ the Holy Spirit comes into your heart and pours out holy love, it is through love we fulfill the Torah. —(Rom. 6:14, 5:1,5)

Every believer has been giving grace, Spirit and Truth to apply the Torah by walking in holy love; every believer has holy love in their hearts by the Holy Spirit who dwells in them. If you can walk in love, you can by the Spirit, and then you fulfill the Torah. If you fulfill the Torah you will be happy indeed. It is not to keep the Torah it is apply the Torah through grace, truth, Spirit, Life, love and faith. The Lord has giving us the insight to fulfill the Torah to apply the Torah, this is love. If you love your brothers and sisters in Christ and walk in love you fulfill the Torah; that is how simple the Torah is to be for us in Christ. –(Rom. 13:8,10, Gal. 5:14)

Let me give you some insight about the simplicity of the Torah, which is five parts: The Ten Commandments, The Sabbath, The Seven Feasts of the Lord, Love, and Faith. This is what I call is the simplicity of the Torah. –(Jn. 1:14, Rom. 8:1-2)

The Ten Commandments: When we come to Christ the Torah is written upon our hearts through the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit pours out love in our hearts, it is through love we fulfill the Torah. –(Rom. 13:8-10)

The Sabbath: The Sabbath is for today, we as gentile believers in Christ are free, but willing of our own free will we can apply the Sabbath Rest, it is a day to worship the Lord in your home, it is a day to enjoy with your family, and teach your children the Word of God. There is a blessing if you apply the Sabbath. –(Col. 2:16)

The Seven Feasts of the Lord: The Seven Feasts of the Lord are for today, they are eternal, and we can apply them today, yes as gentile believers in Christ are free, but willing of our own free will apply the Seven Feasts of the Lord, there is a blessing if you do apply them, one application is to fellowship with your loves ones in your home during those days. –(Col. 2:16)

Love: Yes love is the key to fulfill the Torah, the application of the Torah is to be simple, and how simple does it get, it is the love of God in your hearts, that Holy Spirit has giving you, you love God and you love one another, and walk in love. –(Rom. 13:8,10, Gal. 5:14)

Faith: Genesis is the first book of the Torah, faith came before the Ten Commandments, it the life of faith that we are called to live, to believe in the Word of God, and to have faith, for without faith it is impossible to please Him. Abraham is the Father of faith, and faith was before the Ten Commandments, without faith you cannot please God, you may apply The Ten Commandments, but without faith you don’t please God. –(Gen. 15:6, Rom. 1:17, Heb. 11:6)

So you can see if you say you keep the Ten Commandments, and have not love you lie, and any ways no man can keep the whole Ten Commandments, this is why there is grace. We apply the Torah in love and faith and that is how we have the life of the Torah, which is life of the Spirit. –(Rom. 8:2)
