Apostle Curtis Louis I’ve heard many like yourself and Urban Apologists throughout the years make the claim that we are not under the law (nomos) of Moses. If this is congruous with the harmony of Scriptures, then why did the Messiah (Yahusha) say that He don’t know and depart from the people who don’t follow the law (nomos) of Moses? (Matthew 7:21-23).
The Law of Moses is NOMOS in the Greek.
Strong’s #3551 - Greek
3551 nomos nom'-os from a primary nemo (to parcel out, especially food or grazing to animals); law (through the idea of prescriptive usage), genitive case (regulation), specially, (of MOSES (including the volume); also of the Gospel), or figuratively (a principle):--LAW.
The opposite of the law (lawlessness) is the Greek word ANOMIA.
Iniquity in GREEK is the same word ANOMIA, which means lawlessness.
Strong’s #458 - Greek
458 ANOMIA
anomia: lawlessness
Original Word: ἀνομία, ας, ἡ
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine
Transliteration: anomia
Phonetic Spelling: (an-om-ee'-ah)
Definition: LAWLESSNESS
Usage: lawlessness, iniquity, disobedience, sin.
HELPS Word-studies
458 anomía (from 1 /A "not" and 3551 /nómos, "law") – properly, WITHOUT LAW;
lawlessness; the utter disregard for Yah's law (His written and living Word).
458 /anomía ("lawlessness") includes the end-impact of LAW BREAKING – i.e. its negative influence on a person's soul (status before Yah).
This coincides with the definition of sin which is transgression of the law according to 1 John 3:4. Authentic repentance is coming in alignment with Yah’s Laws and Commandments.
Now that we have a solid definition of the word for the LAW OF MOSES (nomos) and those whose BREAK THE LAW OF MOSES (anomia) which is INIQUITY. Let’s see what Yahusha say about the LAW OF MOSES and INIQUITY.
Matthew 7:21-23
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity (ANOMIA).
Here He clearly states that those who break the Law (nomos) of Moses that He doesn’t know.
Need a precept? ”He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” - I John 2:4
This concrete definition of sin, as breaking the Law of Moses is expressed in several passages. Consider what Paul says in Romans 7:7.
Romans 7:7 What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.”
Here Paul is clearly referring to the Law as given through Moses. Paul then references a particular commandment that he read from the Law of Moses, “You shall not covet.”
Are we to believe you and Urban Apologists or the Messiah (Yahusha)? Let Yah be true an every man a lie.

DrKenneth Howard My brother I am a Hebrew Israelite and I'm filled with the holy spirit and I keep the covenant of the Royal laws of Yah. You guys are trying to get the spec out of Fred Price Jr eyes but with all due respect you got a big beam in your eyes, because it appears that you do not know the difference between the book of the law of Moses vs The 10 Royal laws of Yah. I heard you all over social media twisting scriptures to try to embrace the law of Moses. I'm not impressed with your big words and your so-called higher learning when I find ministers like you that glory in your so-called Hebrew & Greek knowledge and learning. My brother Yah would much rather use foolish things to confound the wise. You really need to repent yourself for twisting the holy scriptures and misleading this Hebrew Israelites awakening by preaching Moses and Hebrew stuff instead of preaching the gospel of Christ. I'm not impressed with your so-called smarts. I'm praying for your soul, because Hebrews like you are taking this Hebrew foolishness too far. I love you in Christ, but you need to be publicly rebuked for twisting scriptures with your smarts!!!
DrKenneth Howard My friend, by the way, you need to stop quoting scriptures when you don't really know what they are saying, because your first video when you was trying to get the spec out of Fred Price Jr eyes, you was all over the place miss-quoting scriptures and trying to defend the law of Moses instead of the ministry of Christ under the Melchizedek priesthood.

Apostle Curtis Louis if you are going to jump into this arena of apologetics and theological discourse, your response is unsatisfactory. Rick Marlin asked, in an amicable fashion, for you to explain what the laws of Moses were. Instead of explaining your logic you in turn told him to’ “go read the Torah” then you quoted the a passage out of the Brit Hadasha (NT) and immediately used an ad hominem attack. Sadly, this is a case of amphiboles, equivocation and a straw man approach.
Furthermore, you went on to share your personal biblical worldview. This conversation isn’t about emotionalism, opines, or personal beliefs; it’s about facts that can be proven through biblical text. Respectfully, you failed to do so. I would hope that you might reconsider and answer Marlin’s question through the jurisprudence of Scripture. The burden of proof is always on those who make a claim or assertion, requiring them to provide evidence or arguments to support their position. The responsibility always lies with the individual proposing an idea or argument to substantiate it adequately.
Someone once told me, “it’s unwise to jump into a dog fight with no teeth.”

DrKenneth Howard My brother that's the problem with all of these big words and all of this theological word salad. I've never been impressed with ministers that do stuff like this. ... 2Co 3:12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: ... 2Co 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. ... 1Co 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
1Co 1:28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
1Co 1:29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

DrKenneth Howard My brother I do not like what you did by using your smarts to twist scriptures to justify the law of Moses. You did it publicly and it needed to be rebuked publicly, however I would like to have a one on one with you peacefully if you like, but I will not stay quiet when anyone twists scripture publicly and that's not baring false witness on you.
