God preached the gospel that WAS GOING TO COME IN THE FUTURE.
There is only one Gospel. It is the Gospel that justifies the ungodly, Romans 4:5 and reconciles us and the world unto God, 2 Corinthians 5:18, 19.

The BIBLE SAYS the law is spiritual.
The scriptures say that the new covenant is the law of Christ.
Jesus came and gave us His law for the new covenant, but you say we don't have to obey what Jesus says.

...sins we REPENT of doing.
"And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, 'In you all the nations shall be blessed. So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.'" (Paul)
You can repent until the cows come home. That is not going to save you.

That is not what Jesus says.
Jesus says repent or perish.
Just because you fail doesn't mean all will fail, and it surely doesn't mean you can do away with the truth.
You have to start by believing Jesus, Robert.
Jesus said, "Be perfect even as your father in heaven is perfect" How are you doing with that one?

Jesus is the Christ and he taught the new law.
It is the law of Christ; see 1 Corinthians 9:21, and Galatians 6:2.

Jesus says do as I say and not as I do. Like you're God and can do what he did!

No, you speak strange things not from God.
Jesus says to do things and he said it to us.
The Bible says, "There is none righteous, no, not one" Romans 3:10. You are trying to become acceptable to God in your flesh.

You're a pagan and not Christian.

There is none who are righteous and have not ever sinned.
You don't know that scriptures well enough.
Paul was explaining how ALL have sinned and fall short, he was explaining about how Jews are sinners too like the Gentiles.
That doesn't mean we do not have to repent of those sins.

Repentance happens when the Holy Spirit convicts you that all your beliefs are founded in lies. You can't atone for one single sin only believe that they are all forgiven in Christ.

What else do you got besides your little insults to me and telling everyone they don't have to obey Jesus?

The Holy Spirit does not convict people who repent of their sins.
