B’rit Chadashah about Torah!

Matthew 5:17-18
“Don’t think that I have come to abolish the Torah or the Prophets. I have come not to abolish but to complete. Yes indeed! I tell you that until heaven and earth pass away, not so much as a “yod” or a stroke will pass from the Torah — not until everything that must happen has happened.”

There they set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking against this holy place and against the Torah;

Acts 7:53 CJB
you! – who receive the Torah as having been delivered by angels – but do not keep it!”

After the reading from the Torah and from the Prophets, the synagogue leaders sent them a message, “Brothers, if any of you has a word of exhortation for the people, speak!”

Acts 21:24 CJB

Romans 2:12-18 CJB
All who have sinned outside the framework of Torah will die outside the framework of Torah; and all who have sinned within the framework of Torah will be judged by Torah. For it is not merely the hearers of Torah whom God considers righteous; rather, it is the doers of what Torah says who will be made righteous in God’s sight. For whenever Gentiles, who have no Torah, do naturally what the Torah requires, then these, even though they don’t have Torah, for themselves are Torah! For their lives show that the conduct the Torah dictates is written in their hearts. Their consciences also bear witness to this, for their conflicting thoughts sometimes accuse them and sometimes defend them on a day when God passes judgment on people’s inmost secrets. (According to the Good News as I proclaim it, he does this through the Messiah Yeshua.) But if you call yourself a Jew and rest on Torah and boast about God and know his will and give your approval to what is right, because you have been instructed from the Torah;

Romans 2:23 CJB
You who take such pride in Torah, do you, by disobeying the Torah, dishonor God? –

Romans 2:25-27 CJB
For circumcision is indeed of value if you do what Torah says. But if you are a transgressor of Torah, your circumcision has become uncircumcision! Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the Torah, won’t his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision? Indeed, the man who is physically uncircumcised but obeys the Torah will stand as a judgment on you who have had a b’rit-milah and have Torah written out but violate it!

Romans 3:19 CJB
Moreover, we know that whatever the Torah says, it says to those living within the framework of the Torah, in order that every mouth may be stopped and the whole world be shown to deserve God’s adverse judgment.

Romans 3:20 CJB
For in his sight no one alive will be considered righteousn on the ground of LEGALISTIC observance of Torah commands, because what Torah really does is show people how sinful they are. But now, quite apart from Torah, God’s way of making people righteous in his sight has been made clear – although the Torah and the Prophets give their witness to it as well –

Romans 3:27-28 CJB
So what room is left for boasting? None at all! What kind of Torah excludes it? One that has to do with legalistic observance of rules? No, rather, a Torah that has to do with trusting. Therefore, we hold the view that a person comes to be considered righteous by God on the ground of trusting, which has nothing to do with legalistic observance of Torah commands.

Romans 3:31 CJB
Does it follow that we abolish Torah by this trusting? Heaven forbid! On the contrary, we confirm Torah.

Romans 4:16 CJB
The reason the promise is based on trusting is so that it may come as God’s free gift, a promise that can be relied on by all the seed, not only those who live within the framework of the Torah, but also those with the kind of trust Avraham had – Avraham avinu for all of us.

Romans 5:13 CJB
Sin was indeed present in the world before Torah was given, but sin is not counted as such when there is no Torah.

Romans 5:20 CJB
And the Torah came into the picture so that the offence would proliferate; but where sin proliferated, grace proliferated even more.

Romans 7:1-9 CJB
Surely you know, brothers – for I am speaking to those who understand Torah – that the Torah has authority over a person only so long as he lives? For example, a married woman is bound by Torah to her husband while he is alive; but if the husband dies, she is released from the part of the Torah that deals with husbands. Therefore, while the husband is alive, she will be called an adulteress if she marries another man; but if the husband dies, she is free from that part of the Torah; so that if she marries another man, she is not an adulteress. Thus, my brothers, you have been made dead with regard to the Torah through the Messiah’s body, so that you may belong to someone else, namely, the one who has been raised from the dead, in order for us to bear fruit for God. For when we were living according to our old nature, the passions connected with sins worked through the Torah in our various parts, with the result that we bore fruit for death. But now we have been released from this aspect of the Torah, because we have died to that which had us in its clutches, so that we are serving in the new way provided by the Spirit and not in the old way of outwardly following the letter of the law. Therefore, what are we to say? That the Torah is sinful? Heaven forbid! Rather, the function of the Torah was that without it, I would not have known what sin is. For example, I would not have become conscious of what greed is if the Torah had not said, “Thou shalt not covet.” But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, worked in me all kinds of evil desires – for apart from Torah, sin is dead. I was once alive outside the framework of Torah. But when the commandment really encountered me, sin sprang to life,

Romans 7:12 CJB
So the Torah is holy; that is, the commandment is holy, just and good.

Romans 7:14 CJB
For we know that the Torah is of the Spirit; but as for me, I am bound to the old nature, sold to sin as a slave.

Romans 7:16 CJB
Now if I am doing what I don’t want to do, I am agreeing that the Torah is good.

Romans 7:21-23 CJB
So I find it to be the rule, a kind of perverse “torah,” that although I want to do what is good, evil is right there with me! For in my inner self I completely agree with God’s Torah; but in my various parts, I see a different “torah,” one that battles with the Torah in my mind and makes me a prisoner of sin’s “torah,” which is operating in my various parts.

Romans 7:25 CJB
Thanks be to God [, he will]! – through Yeshua the Messiah, our Lord! To sum up: with my mind, I am a slave of God’s Torah; but with my old nature, I am a slave of sin’s “Torah.”

Romans 8:2-4 CJB
Why? Because the Torah of the Spirit, which produces this life in union with Messiah Yeshua, has set me free from the “Torah” of sin and death. For what the Torah could not do by itself, because it lacked the power to make the old nature cooperate, God did by sending his own Son as a human being with a nature like our own sinful one [but without sin]. God did this in order to deal with sin, and in so doing he executed the punishment against sin in human nature, so that the just requirement of the Torah might be fulfilled in us who do not run our lives according to what our old nature wants but according to what the Spirit wants.

Romans 8:7 CJB
For the mind controlled by the old nature is hostile to God, because it does not submit itself to God’s Torah – indeed, it cannot.

Romans 9:4 CJB
the people of Isra’el! They were made God’s children, the Sh’khinah has been with them, the covenants are theirs, likewise the giving of the Torah, the Temple service and the promises;

Romans 9:31 CJB
However, Isra’el, even though they kept pursuing a Torah that offers righteousness, did not reach what the Torah offers. (that’s where Yeshua stepped in)

Romans 10:4 CJB
For the goal at which the Torah aims is the Messiah, who offers righteousness to everyone who trusts.

Romans 10:5 CJB
For Moshe writes about the righteousness grounded in the Torah that the person who does these things will attain life through them.

Romans 13:8 CJB
Don’t owe anyone anything – except to love one another; for whoever loves his fellow human being has fulfilled Torah.

Romans 13:10 CJB
Love does not do harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fullness of Torah.

1 Corinthians 9:8 CJB

What I am saying is not based merely on human authority, because the Torah says the same thing –

1 Corinthians 9:9 CJB

for in the Torah of Moshe it is written, “You are not to put a muzzle on an ox when it is treading out the grain.”i If God is concerned about cattle,

1 Corinthians 9:20-21 CJB

That is, with Jews, what I did was put myself in the position of a Jew, in order to win Jews. With people in subjection to a legalistic perversion of the Torah, I put myself in the position of someone under such legalism, in order to win those under this legalism, even though I myself am not in subjection to a legalistic perversion of the Torah. With those who live outside the framework of Torah, I put myself in the position of someone outside the Torah in order to win those outside the Torah – although I myself am not outside the framework of God’s Torah but within the framework of Torah as upheld by the Messiah.

1 John 3:4
“Everyone who keeps sinning is violating Torah – indeed, sin is violation of Torah.”

1 John 5:18
“We know that everyone who has God as his Father does not go on sinning; on the contrary, the Son born of God protects him, and the Evil One does not touch him.”

John 14:15-16
“If you love me, you will keep my commands; and I will ask the Father, and he will give you another comforting Counselor like me, the Spirit of Truth, to be with you forever.”
