A little flowery but totally correct.
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place." (Matthew 5:17-18)
With love in Christ.

Obviously you do not read the OT at all. All the prophecies of the coming Messiah were fulfilled in Jesus. Check out Isaiah 53, and try to disagree with the description of Jesus in this passage.
PLUS, Jesus came to fulfill the LAW, he was ABOVE the Jewish Torah, he was God! God can do as He pleases, that is scriptural too.
As for the Pope calling Jesus the living Torah, I don't listen to much of what the Pope says, he is just a man like any other man. He is NOT divine, nor does he speak for God. So what he has to say is not important to me.

It's disgusting. Jesus broke Torah law repeatedly, nor can Torah law be fulfilled any more than stopping at a red light means that now you've fulfilled the law for red lights and never have to stop at one again. Jesus was a false Messiah, he did not meet the requirements, nor did he fulfill the actual prophecies for the Messiah. Nor is there any "second coming", this is a church invention.

Because Jesus came to fulfill the Law.

I thought the Pope was more into Mein Kampf
