Cause I could give you an extremely clear answer

You don't seem capable of that

Living in accordance with the Ten Commandments.

Ok good.

I apologize if I'm not being clear. I assumed you knew the character of Christ already. And how he never sinned, and fulfilled the law.

If you don't know these things, then yes what I said earlier may have seemed like rhetoric. It's not.

I do know these things

This is how people who don't have answers speak - sanctimoniously

If there is a moral law which we know and man has no right to error then why would we enthrone as good, right and desirable policies which oppose that moral law?

Jesus kept the ten commandments. Those who follow Christ do as well.

"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."
Revelation 14:12

For the same reason God didn't smite Satan.

He rebuked Satan

he was cast from heaven
removed from the life of grace

He will smite Satan, but only after he has fulfilled his purpose: Exposing evil to the angels who never knew sin.

he was clearly punished

we know from sacred scripture that at the final judgement Satan will be punished and those who reject God will also be punished

See what I said above

And so justice is clearly a virtue

I agree

So why should we not follow that virtue

Because you can say that God allows evil to persist for his own providential ends (which I agree) but he also clearly desires the salvation of man and Christ warns those who would corrupt the faith of others

And he does that through his servants, who observe the sixth commandment.

What the government does should be based on the well being of the state. Letting crimes go unpunished is detrimental to the state. That is separate from what individual Christians should do.

How can what is good for individuals be bad for the State

Followers of Christ should leave the enforcement of laws to the earthly and heavenly governments, as Jesus did while he was on earth.

Off topic, but I wonder what church the Apostle Paul was talking about here? 🤔

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; **Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats**, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth."
Paul the Apostle, 1 Timothy 4:1-3

What denomination forbids its ecclesia, priests and nuns, from marrying? And that thing called Lent? Hmmm 🤔

"Followers of Christ should leave the enforcement of laws to the earthly and heavenly governments, as Jesus did while he was on earth"

What about Christians make up the civil authority?

"What denomination forbids its ecclesia, priests and nuns, from marrying? And that thing called Lent? Hmmm 🤔"

It was the Judaizers who kept the old temple laws

Judaizing was the first heresy and St. Paul devotes a lot of his writings toward combatting it

The Roman Catholic Church didn't exist in the Apostle Paul's time. So if you read the full verse, particularly when he says: "that in the **latter times** some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and **doctrines of devils**"

He did fight against Judaizers. However, he is speaking about practices after his day. Mainly the current practices of the Catholic Church.

How

In this letter to Timothy

Clearly not

How do you interpret "latter times"?

There were plenty of gnostic sects that actually applied these rules universally that fulfills these doctrines much more clearly.

I don't interpret the Bible

of course, leave that to people who know what they're actually doing

Do you have any other goal posts you want to shift?
