Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
'The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.' Paul is very clear here saying that it is of no consequence how many (levitical) laws we live by. What matters is our faith and how we live out our faith. Obeying every single law from the OT will not necessarily guarantee you a top-spot in heaven. What will gurantee you entrance into heaven is your faith in Jesus Christ and your action from that faith. We are commanded by Jesus himself to love one another. Go forth and live out the only laws that really matter: to love the Lord you God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength; and to love you neighbor as yourself. God bless you,
Pastor Josh
