Having no temple does not erase the rest of torah. It just stops you from doing those commands associated with it.

Let's examine if we have the Creator's spirit within us:

- Act_5:32 “And we are His witnesses to these matters, and so also is the Set-apart Spirit whom Elohim has given to those who obey Him.”

The requirement of receiving the spirit is to obey Him. What do we obey?

- Luk_4:4 But Yeshua answered him, saying, “It has been written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of Elohim.’

What are His words?

- Psa_119:16 I delight myself in Your laws; I do not forget Your word.

His laws are His word. Lets see if we are obeying every word:

Do you defile your human temple by bringing that which is an abomination into it? Pork, shrimp, lobster, rabbit, horse, etc? Can these be found in your temple? Do you cease all work in your temple on the 7th day of the week to honor the Creator of the universe? Do you bring in idolatry which is found in times that are not His such as xmas, easter, etc?

- 2Co_13:5 Examine yourselves whether you are in the belief – prove yourselves. Or do you not know yourselves, that Yeshua Messiah is in you, unless you are disapproved.

Not so. The church is the temple, and Christ is the sacrifice, The ONE sacrifice. There will be no other sacrifice.

Heb 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

I was referring to the rest of torah (not rest of levitical system laws), but yes, we are cleansed once and for all and there is no more sacrifice for willful sin.

Quesions in regards to sacrifices:

What about burnt offerings?
What about peace offerings?
What about grain offerings?
What about offerings upon completion of a vow?
Etc?

How do you reconcile that Paul took a nazarite vow and paid for 4 others which requires a sacrifice at the end of the vow - a year old male lamb (acts 21:23)?
