Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 5:17-20

These words of Christ are in direct opposition to what most of the modern church teaches. Jesus says He didn't come to destroy the law. The modern church says He did. He says that not a jot or tittle will pass from the law till all is fulfilled, and clearly, there is more to be fulfilled. The modern church says the law is done away with. He says that if we want to be great in the Kingdom of God, we will obey and teach the least commandments, where the modern church calls that legalism and majoring in minors.

GOD DESIRED a PEOPLE who would worship HIM in SPIRIT and in TRUTH . AND IN JESUS the new covenant is BORN WITHIN US .
HERE is the new covenant . AND IN THOSE days I will WRITE MY LAWS in their hearts and minds , I SHALL BE THIER GOD , THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE . ANYONE wanna tell me how on earth grace makes void the law . NO IT ESTBALISHES IT RIGHT ON OUR HEARTS . NOW TO BE LIVED in THE SPIRIT and RIGHTEOUSNESS GIVEN IN CHRIST and BY HIM we now walk RIGHTEOUSLY , godly etc . IF a man hates the law which God inspired , WHICH is HOLY JUST and GOOD as paul said , THEN HOW ON EARTH is THAT ONE FOLLOWING CHRIST . SIN transgresses the law . AND YET GO and SIN NO MORE was JESUS words LET ALL Who name the name of CHRIST depart from inquity , was pauls words . LET these things not once be named among you as becometh saints , WAS PAULS WORDS . DO we then make void the law through grace , GOD FORBID yea we establish it , WAS PAULS WORDS . JESUS IS NOT THE MINISTIR OF SIN and GRACE is not lascviousnesss . ALL who turn the grace of GOD into lasciviousness , DENY THE FATHER , DENY THE SON and the WRATH OF GOD ABIDES ON THEM , lest they repent and believe and follow THE TRUE JESUS and not men .

They have no joy in doing what He said. And hate those who encourage people to do so.
“If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.” - John 15:18
And we are labelled as "works earns", pharisee, and the like.
A question I would like to make to them is:
Who should we obey? God or Satan? Jesus or the devil?
“But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’
For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.” - Matthew 5:37
But they are angry with us who encourage obedience to the one who saved us: Jesus.
“Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey,
you are that one’s slaves whom you obey,
whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?” - Romans 6:16
We obey Jesus and God's Word is on our side. Repent or perish!
“Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you...” - John 5:45
“He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him —
the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.” - John 12:48

1Co 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable. 1Co 15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 1Co 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 1Co 15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 1Co 15:24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 1Co 15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 1Co 15:26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. 1Co 15:27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. 1Co 15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. 1Co 15:29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? 1Co 15:30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour? 1Co 15:31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily. 1Co 15:32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow we die. 1Co 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. 1Co 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.

Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. The law and the prophets were until John; since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
Luke 16:15-17
