In my last question

most people pointed out that Jesus would not approve of the old law now. What then should one do with these words found in Luke?:
19:22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
19:23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
19:24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
19:25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
19:26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
19:27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

Jesus, did approve of the old law. If fact, he quoted it many times and followed it himself. (Luke 24:44 These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled) and "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. Matthew 5:17.
Jesus came to fulfill what the Old Testament said about him and to !!Fulfill the Law!!
About your question with non-Christians, the Bible states that they will be judged and they will go to hell. A real hell, for all of eternity where God's wrath is continually poured out and where you can never escape. He does not want to send you there, but you make the decision.

Matthew 24:14 says the Gospel will be preached in all the nations - then the end will come. John 3:16 shows that Jesus came for the benefit of all mankind. So non-Christian lives are of value to him.

A lot of christians seem to over look the fact that jesus was Jewish, so does that mean he is his own enemy and would slay himself?

Absolutely nothing, it is their choice to follow him or not, Jesus simply put the message on the table for all of mankind, it's up to all of mankind now to make a choice, they are either with him or their not, that's how I see it anyway.

If you read those verses in a version that doesn't have old English you might be able to understand them better.

He would heal them, mentally, if they asked Him to. If they don't, they will be cast down to Hell. The Bible has been very clear, on this issue.
