The Scriptures, because you think they have
eternal life; and they witness was about Me.
John 5.39
Comparing the books of the old and New
Testament, we can make sure that the main purpose of the Scriptures-lead us to
the Savior Jesus Christ. He pointed out the ceremonial law (the earthly
sanctuary, sacrifices, feasts etc.). It was, therefore, only until the coming
of Christ.
As for the moral law, it has not lost its
significance and almost literally quoted in the New Testament. HE COULD NOT BE
CANCELED OR CHANGED ALONG WITH THE CEREMONIAL.
Two laws, the moral and the ceremonial
There are two laws:
1. MORAL - unchanging rules of everyday life
2. RITUAL - has lost its importance with the
advent of Christ
Moral law is not destroyed, and CLAIMED by
faith in Christ ( Romans 3.31 ).
"Alleged" should be understood in
the sense of OBEDIENCE to LAW, not never.
The Apostle Paul says that the law is HOLY (
Romans 7.12, 22 ).
Works of the law:
For he is our peace, out of both one and
dismantled the sitting behind an obstacle, having abolished in his flesh the
enmity, the law of commandments and TEACHINGS * in two to create in himself one
new man, to arrange the world and reconcile both in one person with God through
the cross, killing feud. ..
Ephesians 2.14-16
* The commandments are an integral part of
the teachings of Christ.
In addition, the Apostle Paul refers in the
same Ephesians at three of the ten commandments ( Ephesus 4.6, 25-28 ).
Couldn't he contradict himself! Therefore,
He said abolishing the ceremonial law and
moral approval.
The separation of these laws are already in
the Old Testament ( Deuteronomy 5.22,
4.13, 10.5, 31.24-26;
Dan 9.11 ):
- The ten commandments words and written by God
himself and at his behest are put into Ark
- Ceremonial Law written by Moses in a book and
put in the Ark, and on the right side
Paul says that the law of Moses, which lies
at the Ark ( throne of grace ), testified against the people.
Destroying the former teachings about us
script, that was against us, and he took it from the environment and nailing it
to the cross.
Col 2.14
The law court is the shadow and thus loses meaning after the procession of Christ ( Hebrews 10.1-5 ). CHRIST CAME TO SAVE PEOPLE FROM THEIR SINS. The will of God concerning Christ was to respect the moral law ( Matthew 5.17 ). The word "cancellation the same before the former commandments is because of her misery and futility" ( Heb 7.18 ) do not speak of the moral law, and Leviticus-the priesthood, as is evident from the context.
The moral law is an integral part of the New
Testament:
And that presents us and the Holy Spirit; for
it is said: this is the Covenant that I will make them
After those days, says the Lord: I will put
my laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them, and their sins
and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.
Hebrews 10.15-17
Justification through faith and grace
Although the law was not cancelled, but
JUSTIFY IT, WE CAN NOT only detect and identify sin ( Romans 3.20 ). It is a
mirror, the mirror could not cleanse us from the spots, and only show us their
( Jacob 2.23-25 ).
We receive the gift of justification through
faith ( Romans 3.24-25, Ephesus 2.8 ). HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT ELIMINATE the
LAW, because being under grace is not sin, i.e. the IP SO the law, because SIN
ECT LAWLESSNESS ( 1 John 3.4 ). Anyone who violates the law, he is under his
condemnation. The man who repented his crimes, by faith receive the forgiveness
and tries to keep the commandments is not under the condemnation of the law,
but under grace.
The Apostle Paul wrote about the ultimate
purpose of the law:
The end ( Greek. "Telos" – purpose
) of Christ, the righteousness of all believer
( Rome 10.4 ).
It also did not address the moral law.
WE CAN'T REACH THE END IF NOT IMEEN
BEGINNING. But the beginning is law that detects a sin and shows the need for
salvation, which comes through faith in Christ.
The word "righteousness" point to
the need for OBEDIENCE to the law (
faith without works is dead, says Jacob ). MAY NOT BE A RIGHTEOUS ONE WHO
CONSTANT VIOLATES THE MORAL LAW.
Therefore the law is APPROVED by faith ( Romans 3.31 ).
The ultimate purpose of grace - NOT ONLY to
FORGIVE the sinner, but the general correct him ( because the offender is
released from prison under amnesty, again hits back If not corrected, will continue to do ).
Therefore, God's grace saves us from sin and retribution for sin and will not to Sin anymore ( Titus 2.11-14, 1 Cor 15.34 ).
