After the sacrifice of Christ we are now live under God's grace because he paid the penalty for sin. Jesus said that he came to fulfill the law and that nothing would disappear from the law until everything is accomplished. After his life, death and resurrection the fulfillment was accomplished.
The Gospels say the exact opposite, particularly the words attributed to Jesus. Only later when Paul was having trouble meeting his membership drive quota did he have to change his approach to attract Gentiles. The fulfillment didn't mean that the laws didn't apply. Christ's fulfillment of the law was simply a purported example of full compliance. It's the Pauline Christian that doesn't want the burden of living as Christ instructed so they contrive this deception in order to obtain a free ride.
It really is all nonsense.
