Yet Paul used logic and reason to put forward his arguments.
I'm using HIS logic and reason to further my point.
Since God saw fit to give the Israelites a law after they were living under faith...then why wouldn't God do the same with gentiles?
Isn't that the natural pattern?
jesus never said there can't be another prophet of God after him. Just not a Jewish one.
GENESIS 49
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
Jesus was Shiloh..and he has been. The sceptre has long departed Judah and a lawgiver has been...only one.
Galatians 3:10-14
For as many as are of the works of the Law are under a curse; for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT ABIDE BY ALL THINGS WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW, TO PERFORM THEM.” Now that no one is justified by the Law before God is evident; for, “THE RIGHTEOUS MAN SHALL LIVE BY FAITH.” However, the Law is not of faith; on the contrary, “HE WHO PRACTICES THEM SHALL LIVE BY THEM.” Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, “CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE ”— in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

That is your answer inspiring...we live by faith..there isn’t another way and it surely isn’t living by the law..well unless you want to, but that isn’t going to save you because you can’t live the law to salvation..no one can. There was only one that did..he already did that and all one has to believe is in Jesus and you don’t have to worry about live to the law, but living by grace through faith. That is the set up inspiring and nothing else.
