No. I can't.
I have to base my judgements on what I read in the bible and how I interpret it.
I DO believe (for certain) one thing:
God loves us (ALL) therefore, once we accept that:
We have to love ourselves
Then we have to love others as we love ourselves
THAT pretty much wraps it up.
If we treat others, regardless of whether we like them or not, how we want to be treated, if we love ourselves, odds are we'll do the right thing.
The rest is just semantics.

although we live in the age of grace still there are laws that cross all boundaries and if not followed will bite you in the ***. Love God, and love your neighbor as yourself. All the laws are summed up here for you to reason out every action you take or do not take.
There are even today in this age of grace some things that will stop you from entering Heaven, if done as a life style which means to continually repeat.
I'm not going to look them up for you if you want to know what they are then, get out your concordance and look up the word lingdom. I will tell you one, and that is gossiping in a manor that constitutes character assassination. These sinners are called whisperers, another word that will be in an unabridged concordance.
For my own part I read through the list and thought why would people want to do these things, so it seems to me to be common sense sort of thing. If a person actually is a Christian and does these things they feel conviction and can either stop doing them or quench the Spirit which feels worse in the end.
Do I know if I am doing something wrong, yes, and I do not need to memorize a long list of things in order to know.

God's law entails the ten commandments found in Exodus 20. Not to be confused with Moses laws which were written in a book and placed outside of the ark of the covenant while the God's ten commandments are placed inside the ark of the covenant. See link for more.

Hi, I am Rational Spirituality,
Yes I do, because it was conveyed directly from the Source, and it makes perfect sense.
Read the 7 Laws of the Universe and the 7 Divine Laws in "Rational Spirituality" on the Dhaxem website, this info already changed the lives of many thinking and genuine people, and our numbers are growing by the hour!

God's law is as stated in some of the answers above that mention the 10 Commandments and the "heart". Since Christ died for each and every one of us, He fulfilled the law of the Old Covenant. The new law as Christ stated, simply became the Commandments, summed up into two. They are; "Love God with your whole heart, and Love your neighbor as yourself."
IF we all obeyed Christ's law, the world wouldn't be in the terrible mess that it's in now! God's laws would be in our HEARTS and that is what God and the Savior want us to do.

I take it that you are referring the whole Holy Bible. The first step is to study the Bible with all help that you can receive from Bible teachers and also to pray and ask the Holy Spirit to give you further revelation of the Word. When you have the revelation from the Holy Spirit, you check with other anointed men of God to obtain confirmation of the revelation you received. After you have confirmation you can then conclude that this is the understanding of the Word that God desires you to have. This is the process you go through with every scripture. Of course you can also listen to others who teach the Word and the Holy Spirit can give you confirmation in your heart that what you hear is the correct interpretation. In this way and perhaps other ways which I have not mentioned (we cannot limit God) we can grow in our knowledge of the Word. But in all situations it is the work of the Holy Spirit to help you know the Word according to God's wisdom and not man's wisdom.

No. I cannot claim to know all 300 some odd mosaic laws; I can however say that since Jesus fulfilled them all and covered me under the blanket of his grace through faith and salvation they do not apply to me. Of course, I am still bound to the 10 commandments which is just common sense if you ask me.

Gods'law? do you mean the law of Moses which was only ever given to the Children of Israel? It was fulfilled by Christ and was never given to the Gentiles. The only law we are under now is total grace! the Bible states that where there is no law, sin can not be charged to our account!

The commandments fully describe God's laws.
Obey them and you'll have a wonderful life.

Something I read by Neale Walsch that made sense to me:
"It is your first nature to be unconditionally loving. It is your second nature to choose to express your first nature, your true nature, conciously."
