  Adding to and/or taking away from the Word of God is forbidden by God Himself. Yet Messiah both added to and diminished Moses! For one He ~recinded~ and/or ~removed~ the law that said Eye for Eye! He also ~added~ the law of loving one’s enemy! Then he took the Entire Mosaic Economy and nailed it to His cross ~Taking it Away~!  That can only mean that with the Advent of Messiah the Mosaic Covenant, which was the Ten Commandments folks, becomes obsolete.
