Paul made it clear. Following the Torah, following pagan rituals, or any other rules and regulations make Christ ineffective in us. I.e. instead of maturing in Christ, the believer under the Law stops maturing. Christ said that on two commandments would hang the Law and the Prophets—love God with your entire being and your neighbor as yourself. The word hang means to “hang suspended like on a cross!”
