To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them (Isaiah 8:20).
As a last day message, Righteousness by Faith (Romans 10:5, Philippians 3:9-11), has been sent to us; emphasizing the law and testimony. Once we are born again we are no longer gentiles but, we are Spiritual Jews/Overcomers, Children of the Most High, victorious over sin (1 John 3:9), by faith through the righteousness of the Messiah, Christ Jesus (Romans 2:28-29, 3:28-31).
The law, the Ten Commandments, were given by God as a description of Christ's character, a constitution of the Most High's government, legal and binding. Because mankind had difficulty keeping the law given by Moses, written with the Finger of God (Exodus 31:18), the Father sent a living True Witness, Christ Jesus (Hebrews 1:1-3, Revelation 3:14). The first four Commandments contain principles of non-negotiable conduct towards the Most High and the latter six, mandate our non-negotiable behavior towards our fellow brethren. The Fourth Commandment will determine our sealing in these end times, as we will need to choose to be either Spiritual Israel, doing things God's way or Spiritual Babylon, neglecting God's principles and character (Deuteronomy 6:1-8, Ezekiel 20:12,20):
Moreover also I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.
And hallow my Sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the Lord your God.
The Messiah spoke on the Mount historically, preaching and detailing God's governmental rules (Matthew 5:6,7).
And he said unto them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath: Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath (Mark 2:27,28).
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill (Matthew 5:17).
A testimony, evidence, a witness statement, was sent to us by the Messiah. When we witness in Court we testify of what we know to be true or can identify as Truth. God, the Father, sent Christ, the Redeemer, as a living demonstration of how the Law or Ten Commandments are to be kept. Jesus was sent to reveal the Father, testifying about the Father (John 14: 8-15):
If ye love me, keep my commandments (John 14:15).
