I think the 10 commandments still apply but the things people in the old testament had to do, like sacrifices to forgive sins and going to a priest or the head to talk to God no long apply.  Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice and it says that "No one gets to the father except through me [Jesus]."  Hope that helps.

God's Sovereignty means that my day unfolds exactly as God has ordained it.  Trials, suffering and joy are all included in that.\n\nSatan can't touch me....unless God allows him to.\n\nI'm invincible until God calls me home.\n\nGod has ordained where I live, the time in which I live on this earth,  and the boundaries of my nation.\nActs 17:26 (NKJV)  \n    And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, \n\nHe has a set number of days for me..Job 14:5 (NKJV)  \n    Since his days are determined,\n    The number of his months is with You;\n    You have appointed his limits, so that he cannot pass. \n\nHe has chosen me to be one of His sheep.  He revealed himself to me...and I choose him.\nRomans 8:29-30 (NKJV)  \n    For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. [30] Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

sorry this is a long version; To this his interpreter answers (v. 23–25) that this fourth beast is a fourth kingdom, that shall devour the whole earth, or (as it may be read) the whole land. That the ten horns are ten kings, and the little horn is another king that shall subdue three kings, and shall be very abusive to God and his people, shall act, (1.) Very impiously towards God. He shall speak great words against the Most High, setting him, and his authority and justice, at defiance. (2.) Very imperiously towards the people of God. He shall wear out the saints of the Most High; he will not cut them off at once, but wear them out by long oppressions and a constant course of hardships put upon them, ruining their estates and weakening their families. The design of Satan has been to wear out the saints of the Most High, that they may be no more in remembrance; but the attempt is vain, for while the world stands God will have a church in it. He shall think to change times and laws, to abolish all the ordinances and institutions of religion, and to bring every body to say and do just as he would have them. He shall trample upon laws and customs, human and divine. Diruit, aedificut, mutat quadrata rotundis—He pulls down, he builds, he changes square into round, as if he meant to alter even the ordinances of heaven themselves. And in these daring attempts he shall for a time prosper and have success; they shall be given into his hand until time, times, and half a time (that is, for three years and a half), that famous prophetical measure of time which we meet with in the Revelation, which is sometimes called forty-two months, sometimes 1260 days, which come all to one. But at the end of that time the judgment shall sit and take away his dominion (v. 26), which he expounds (v. 11) of the beast being slain and his body destroyed. And (as Mr. Mede reads v. 12) as to the rest of the beast, the ten horns, especially the little ruffling horn (as he calls it), they had their dominion taken away. Now the question is, Who is this enemy, whose rise, reign, and ruin, are foretold? Interpreters are not agreed. Some will have the fourth kingdom to be that of the Seleucidae, and the little horn to be Antiochus, and show the accomplishment of all this in the history of the Maccabees; so Junius, Piscator, Polanus, Broughton, and many others: but others will have the fourth kingdom to be that of the Romans, and the little horn to be Julius Caesar, and the succeeding emperors (says Calvin), the antichrist, the papal kingdom (says Mr. Joseph Mede), that wicked one, which, as this little horn, is to be consumed by the brightness of Christ’s second coming. The pope assumes a power to change times and laws, potestas autokratorikeµ—an absolute and despotic power, as he calls it. Others make the little horn to be the Turkish empire; so Luther, Vatablus, and others. Now I cannot prove either side to be wrong; and therefore, since prophecies sometimes have many fulfillings, and we ought to give scripture its full latitude (in this as in many other controversies), I am willing to allow that they are both in the right, and that this prophecy has primary reference to the Syrian empire, and was intended for the encouragement of the Jews who suffered under Antiochus, that they might see even these melancholy times foretold, but might foresee a glorious issue of them at last, and the final overthrow of their proud oppressors; and, which is best of all, might foresee, not long after, the setting up of the kingdom of the Messiah in the world, with the hopes of which it was usual with the former prophets to comfort the people of God in their distresses. But yet it has a further reference, and foretels the like persecuting power and rage in Rome heathen, and no less in Rome papal, against the Christian religion, that was in Antiochus against the pious Jews and their religion. And St. John, in his visions and prophecies, which point primarily at Rome, has pl

Love.\n\nIn the end, it's all about love.  Even the law is about love.  \n\nWe don't always know what's best for us.  We don't always know what love is.  We think strong feelings are love.  How many people in the world control, manipulate, abuse, and even kill in the name of love.  What do we know about love?\n\nLove is when you do what is best for someone else.  When you put them first.\n\nWe have our own desires to contend with.  The law was given to us to teach us how to balance our desires with loving others.\n\n“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?”\nJesus said to him, “‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”  Matthew 22:36-40\n\nWe don't even know how to properly love ourselves.  We have addictions and vices and disorders.  We don't want to obey because it's not fun and it's difficult.\n\nWhat if it's the best thing for us?  What if obedience is best, not because we fear some retribution later, but because it ultimately makes us into someone we love being right here and now?  Someone who is able to love God and others deeply and completely?\n\nI don't know why Mr. Shaw believes that "God doesn't do happy."  Maybe he's thinking more along the lines of giddy rather than joyous?\n\nFor whom the LORD loves He corrects,\nJust as a father the son in whom he delights.\nProverbs 3:12\n\n The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD,\n And He delights in his way.\nPsalm 37:23\n\n But let him who glories glory in this,\n That he understands and knows Me,\n That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, \njudgment, and righteousness in the earth.\n For in these I delight,” says the LORD.\nJeremiah 9:24

When Jesus was asked this question, He replied \n"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.  This is the first and great commandment.  And the second is like it:  You shall love your neighbor as yourself.  On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."\nMatthew 22:37-40

God wants to be the most important thing in our lives.  Next important should be each other.  "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it:  'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" Matthew 22:37-39

I am and a man cannot be saved by the Law. \nI am and have peace in heart because Christ loves me and I love Him.\nIf u have an impression that SDAs talk a lot about the law, perhaps it is because everybody knows that we are saved by grace and small number know how much important the law is to God.\nI will share two verses from the New (not old)Testament and it is Hebrews 10. 15,16.\nWhereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,\nThis is the covenant that I will make with them after those\ndays, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts,\nand in their minds will I write them.\nGod revealed His character through His Law and we are called not to ignore it or forget it. Some would say: But Christ told us that the two major commandments are to love our God and our neighbours and I couldn't agree more. But these two commandments are, in fact, 10 commandments summarized. And if one ask him/herself: how can I love God or people around me, he/she can find the answer in 10 commandments. That is one of the reasons (for me) to uphold the law.\nAnd if somebody tells you we are saved by the law, keep believing it's wrong teaching.\nGod bless you all.

Find it in the Bible.  By the way, why is this question posted under Law & Ethics?

Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. \n\nThis is one of my favorite promises, one of the 10 Commandments.  It is the only one of the 10 commandments which offers a promise of long life if you but honor your father and mother.

love the Lord your God with all your heart all your mind and all your soul is the first commandment and the most important one. Just like Jesus said in Mathew. This commandment is hard to do living in the world that we live in but do your best.\n\nGod bless you

Lack of love for God, for if you truly love God with your whole heart, mind and strength he gives you the power to love others.\nThat is why it is the first commandment.\nThe First Commandment is the most basic requirement for beginning to understand God’s truth and to fulfill our ultimate purpose. All humanity is warned to put God first, and to avoid false gods. The Being who issued that first and great commandment rephrased it in Matthew 22:37.\n\nNotice: “Jesus said unto him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment.” In this New Testament passage, Christ was essentially quoting words that He inspired in Deuteronomy 4:5.
