Here's an example... please list for me exactly what laws you think still apply out of the Law of Moses. Will your list match that of everyone who will pick and choose from the Law of Moses or is it a matter of arbitrary and subjective interpretation? What about other laws governing attire, including laws against poly-knit clothing? What about laws governing the shaving of the corner's of one's beard? What about laws governing a woman's menses? What about various Sabbath laws? The list could go on and on.

I think we actually do more violence to the Law of Moses by treating it like a buffet bar from which we can pick and choose our laws, thereby creating a religion of subjective law keeping, than we do if we put it entirely under the covenant of grace.
