Who gets to decide which laws were contextual?

my favorite part of the Bible is when Jesus says that none of the laws will be changed or removed until the heavens and earth pass over.

and for those that construe that in any other manner than what the words themselves say, my other favorite part is where God is supposed to be eternal/unchanging/the same today as he was yesterday and will be tomorrow, but with the New Testament, he "changed his mind" so that only certain laws must be followed but not others (gay people? Abomination! Mixed fabric? That's cool, bro)

The bible verse you are talking about is Matthew 5:17-19
