14. The reason

for the importance of the 10 commandments surviving in NT is because Jesus claimed the important things to do were to hold to the 10 commandments and keep the golden rule.

The real problem the NT faces is its entire justification for claiming Jesus was the Christ comes from the OT. Both his reason for being needed and the means to recognise him are set down in the OT. Without it there is no reason for him. Thus the OT is forever tied to the NT. Complete with all the ugly blemishes and horrors that exist within it.
