The question & answer are complicated -
first, why do you think somebody "ABOLISHED JESUS"S LAW?!! THE TEN COMMANDMENTS?" ????
and if anybody did, what was their authority to do so?
There is a simple answer to a related question - "Did Jesus abolish the Old Covenant Law, so that sinners can be forgiven without keeping the Law to perfection?"
I think that is the question you are asking.
Read Exodus 19 which is the introduction to the 10 commandments listed in Exo. 20. The key verses are -
5 Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, 6 you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites.’
7 So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all the words the Lord had commanded him to speak. 8 The people all responded together, ‘We will do everything the Lord has said.’ So Moses brought their answer back to the Lord.
The IF in verse 5 shows that the Old Covenant is conditional on full obedience. And the provision of sacrifices for sin showed that God made provision for the forgiveness of those who failed to live in full obedience.
All of us are sinners & fail under the Old Covenant. A New Covenant was needed, as promised in Jeremiah 31.
Jesus was born an Israelite, Son of God & Son of Man by the virgin Mary, into the family line of Abraham & David. He lived under the Old Covenant Law in perfect obedience as Man for mankind. Bearing our sins, he died as Man for the sins of mankind, and rose from the dead in triumph over Satan & sin. After 40 days teaching the Apostles about his Kingdom, and commissioning them to preach the Gospel to all nations, he ascended into heaven. From heaven the Holy Spirit was poured out first on the Apostles, then on all who received the Gospel message. Acts 2.
The message of salvation is that all mankind are condemned as sinners for breaking God's Commandments. God through Christ, as Man for mankind kept the Law so that when we come to God as repentant sinners, trusting in the life, death & resurrection of Jesus, we are given a new life - born again, as Jesus explains in John 3.
To come to your question!
The Commandments stand to the end of time to condemn sinners. Believers in the LORD Jesus Christ who have repented of their sins are not living under the Law - we're not required to keep it for our salvation, but the indwelling Holy Spirit writes the Law in our hearts, so we live in obedience to his life lived in us. We are certainly NOT free to break the commandments but of course we all fail to keep them to the perfection Jesus did.
Our salvation does not depend on our obedience to the Commandments & other Laws. It depends on repentance & a living and active faith in Jesus as LORD & Saviour. We are given the Holy Spirit dwelling in our hearts to keep us living as Christians, not yet in perfect obedience, but living as children of God in general obedience.
Our baptism as believers is a sign of our repentance, burial of our old sinful self, cleansing from sin in Jesus' blood, & rising to live a new life through Jesus. We share the Lord's Supper of bread & wine, the wine representing the blood of the New Covenant, and the bread representing the Word of God which feeds our spiritual life.
Hope that helps.
