Daniel 7:25
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
John 1:1
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with YHWH, and the Word was YHWH.
John 1:14
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 1:17
For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Yeshua.
Matthew 5:18
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot (1) or one tittle (2) shall in no wise pass from the law (3), till all be fulfilled.

Yeshua certainly isn't speaking of man's law. He is speaking of Mosaic law, or the first 5 books of the bible written by Moses (Torah). Until heaven and Earth pass away, YHWH's law, and commandments are valid in their entirety.
Saul's false doctrine:
Romans 7:1–7
Or do you not know, brethren (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives? For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man. Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another—to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God. For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
According to this, the Old Testament (law) is no longer needed? Not according to Yeshua. Paul calls Yeshua, YHWH, and all the prophets of the Old Testament LIARS!
Matthew 5:18
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law , till all be fulfilled.
2:6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
All these were part of the law that was nailed to the cross, and that includes the law of the Sabbath day. You will also find one to the ten commandments listed in as part of the law that was removed.
The 10 commandments too?
This information can also be found quite easily by doing some basic research online. I won't go into detail regarding the Catholic church…this should be common knowledge. Sorry if this offends you Catholics. It isn't wise to practice idolatry by praying to saints and allowing a man who proclaims he has the power to forgive mans sins, to serve as the intermediary between you and YHWH.
In my years of researching the bible...I have always questioned the idea of it having false teachings. That it should be more then accepting Yeshua as your saviour, as that would defeat the purpose of the entire Bible being written for us other then the historical account of humans thousands of years ago. I have always believed in upholding the commandments of YHWH, as it says in 50+ verses in the Bible, and adhering to YHWH's laws in both the Old and New testament. However the corrupt church has always taught...accept Yeshua and you will be saved. No tests, consequences, say your daily prayer and live your lifestyle and make no changes to better yourself for your Father in Heaven. This goes hand in hand with the laziness of man and always trying to find the easy way out and to work YHWH into their lives when they want to worship Him.
Yeshua coming as the word in the flesh did not abolish YHWH;s laws, but reinforced them.
Malachi 3:6 - For I am YHWH, I do not change.
Hebrews 13:8 - Yeshua is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
YHWH the Father, YHWH the Son and YHWH the Holy Spirit are never changing.
Matthew 22:36-40
Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Yeshua said unto him, Thou shalt love the YHWH with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law (Torah) and the prophets.
Someone did change the way that YHWH and Yeshua would have you believe in them.

"According to the writings in the New Testament, Paul was known as Saul prior to his conversion, and was dedicated to the persecution of the early disciples of Jesus in the area of Jerusalem. It is general scholarly opinion that Paul retained his name Saul even after his conversion; however Saul (probably somewhat reluctantly) went by the Greek name Paulos in order to effectively relate with the gentiles. While traveling from Jerusalem to Damascus on a mission to "bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem", the resurrected Jesus appeared to him in a great light. Saul was struck blind, but after three days his sight was restored by Ananias of Damascus, and Paul began to preach that Jesus of Nazareth is the Jewish Messiah and the Son of God."
"He was also a Roman citizen—a fact that afforded him a privileged legal status with respect to laws, property, and governance. Fourteen epistles in the New Testament are attributed to Paul. His authorship of seven of the fourteen is questioned by modern scholars. Augustine of Hippo developed Paul's idea that salvation is based on faith and not "works of the law"."
Paul was a man in a position of power...and persecuted the early disciples of Yeshua. He had a major impact on influence of the new testament...and changed the idea of how salvation works. He changed the path to YHWH from following YHWH's law, to only believing in being saved simply by professing Yeshua's name, without upholding his commands.The catholic religion has you confess through a box because their doctrine says that they have the divine power of YHWH to forgive man's sin. I would suggest reading the whole wiki. Elaine Pagels, professor of religion at Princeton University and an authority on Gnosticism, argues that Paul was a Gnostic. The Gnostics blame YHWH for his imperfection creation. I have traced Gnosticism back to Egypt, and we all know the story of Egypt in the Bible.

What the KJV says about upholding the commandments:
Psalms - 78:7 That they might set their hope in YHWH, and not forget the works of YHWH, but keep his commandments:
Psalms - 89:31 If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; 89:32 Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
Psalms - 103:18-20 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. YHWH hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all. Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Psalms - 111:10 The fear of the Adonai is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
Psalms - 112:1 Praise ye the Elohiym. Blessed is the man that feareth YHWH, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Psalms - 119:10-12 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Blessed art thou, YHWH: teach me thy statutes.
Psalms - 119:21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.
Psalms - 119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments. 119:61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law.
Psalms - 119:66-67 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments. Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.
Psalms - 119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.
Psalms - 119:115-116 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my Elohiym. Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
Proverbs - 2:1-2 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
Proverbs - 3:1-2 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments: For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
Proverbs - 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
Proverbs - 19:16 He that keepeth the commandment keepeth his own soul; but he that despiseth his ways shall die.
Ecclesiastes - 8:5 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.
Ecclesiastes - 12:13-14 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear YHWH, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For YHWH shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Matthew 5:19-20 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. (Acts also quotes Paul indirectly referring to his father by saying he was "a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee")
Matthew - 15:3-9 (Yeshua) But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of YHWH by your tradition? For YHWH commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death. But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, It is a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of YHWH of none effect by your tradition. Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Matthew - 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, YHWH: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Matthew - 22:36-40 Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Yeshua said unto him, Thou shalt love the YHWH with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
I believe the point has been made about upholding the commandments and statutes. This list goes on and on throughout the bible. The church and others would have you think differently by simply professing Yeshua's name and your saved. Yeshua came as YHWH's word in the flesh to create the new covenant with man and to show the path to righteousness. Truly I can say that believing in Yeshua's name only and not upholding YHWH's law is not the path to salvation. Read the bible, and do your homework.
Revelations 2:2
I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars.
