The ASSIMILATION
The Ten Commandments and Seven Holydays are for ASSIMILATION - not JUSTIFICATION.
The Ten Commandments and Seven Holydays DEFINE God's WAY of LIFE.
The love (agape) of God is defined as the Ten Commandments.
1 Jn 5:3; 2 Jn 1:6
"For this is the love {agape} of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome."
"6 And this is love {agape}, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it."
"For this is the love {agape} of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome."
"6 And this is love {agape}, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it."
That WAY is designed to provide happiness for ALL for an ETERNITY.
If we are not willing to ASSIMILATE and live that WAY during this short temporary mortal existence, what makes us think that we will be willing to live that WAY for an ETERNITY?
The New Covenant makes it clear that the "LAW" (The Ten Commandments and Seven Holydays) was NOT done away by Jesus Christ:
Mt 5:17-19;Mt 19:16-19;James 2:17-24;1 Jn 2:3-6;1 Jn 5:3;2 Jn 1:6;Rev 12:17

What was done away with is the concept of JUSTIFICATION by LAW-KEEPING (Rom 3:20; Gal 5:1-4).
But the ASSIMILATION of the LAW (by keeping the LAW) is still required in order to build righteousness and eternal LIFE in our independent being (Rom 6:15-16).
So beware those who dismiss keeping the LAW (The Ten Commandments and Seven Holydays) by saying it is just an attempt at JUSTIFICATION or LEGALISM, and that the Law was replaced by agape love.
"Replacing the Ten Commandments with agape love" is Orwellian doublespeak because the scriptures define agape love as keeping the commandments (1 Jn 5:3; 2 Jn 1:6)!
Such statements are insidious mind control brainwashing and gaslighting.
KEEPING THE LAW IS FOR THE ASSIMILATION OF GOD'S WAY OF LIFE - PROVING THAT WE WANT TO LIVE THAT WAY OF LIFE FOREVER WITH THE FATHER AND SON AND ALL THE HEAVENLY HOST!
Mal 4:4-6

4 “Remember the law of Moses My servant, even the statutes {seven holydays!} and ordinances which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel.
5 “Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. 6 He will restore the hearts of the fathers {Abraham, Isaac, Jacob} to their children {Caucasian descendants!} and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse.”
1 Jn 2:3-6

3 By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4 The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him; 5 but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: 6 the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.
2 Jn 1:9

Anyone who goes too far and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God; the one who abides in the teaching, he has both the Father and the Son.
