The law never be abolished but we know that :"That except your righteousness shall exceed [the righteousness] of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven."
So the week elements of our faith are the "carnal ordinances" "imposed until the time of reformation."

As a Christian, can you break the fifth commandment? How about the seventh? The third? How about the fourth? Weak and beggarly elements? Abstaining from idolatry is a carnal ordinance imposed until Jesus sets us free from having to actually obey God? Christian liberty = do whatever you feel motivated to do? As long as you're not doing what is written?
Sorry, but that can't possibly be correct. Who could respect a religion like that?
