Okay, the Law of Moses is not literally God. It reveals God's character if he lived on earth under the circumstances of sin and death. The Law of Moses is God's character put into words... His image revealed by his very own mouth at Mt. Sinai.
If God walked the earth as a human, He would look exactly like the Law of Moses. His character and actions would adhere to the Law of Moses perfectly... because they are the ways of righteousness.
"... and it will be righteousness for us, if we are careful to do all this commandment before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us..."
Deuteronomy 6:25
Oh, wait! Didn't God's son, who looks just like God, walk the earth... keeping the Law of Moses perfectly?
Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works."
John 14:8-10
Yes. He did. Messiah was sinless; sin is defined as the breaking of the Law of Moses. Messiah's character and everything he did, honored and kept the Law perfectly.
"Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness."
1 John 3:4
Hebrews is clear: Messiah is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hebrews 13:8
This means Messiah kept the Law yesterday (before he came to earth. Think Eden, when we were created), today (when he walked the earth), and will keep the Law of Moses... forever.
Messiah is the Law of Moses. Scripture is crystal clear.
If you've seen Messiah... you've seen God.
The Law of Moses is the revealed image of Almighty God if He walked the earth. Messiah proved this.
Please consider how important this fact is.
Then God said, " Let us make man in our image, after our likeness..."
Genesis 1:26
