1 | Law, Curses, Resurrection, Regeneration | Matt 5:18 | C.S. Lewisist | 74738 | ||
1) I was wondering the role of Old Testament laws in light of Christ's sacrifice. He did indeed say that He is the fulfillment of the law and not the destroyer (Matt. 7:17). The rabbinic interpretations are certainly not what Chrisitans are to care for, but what are we to follow, if indeed there are laws to follow? For instance, tithing was an old testament law; Christ has fulfilled - are those that follow Him still ordered to tithe? If so, how is He the fulfillment; if not, how does the law play in the Christian's life, and which laws? 2) When we hear of a curse in the Bible, would it be proper to say that this curse is the eventual cessation of God from a person's life? In other words, is a curse the neutral state without God, or is it some negative impressment that God gives to those who act out of rebellion? This seems, to me, to be the case with Malachi 3:9 and the curse of not tithing to God. 3) Concerning the resurrection and the new body of 2 Cor. 5 (and this may appear to be an amateur question) - are we given completely new bodies, or are our old bodies 'upgraded'; that is, redone while still maintaining the same physical structure as we had on earth? 4) Finally, I've heard it said that come the regeneration of all things that the saints will live on a perfected earth. I'm not referring to an a-millenialist interpretation of Revelation 19 either. Can you please help? blessings, John |

Matt 7:17 says "So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit." Matt 5:17 "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. 18 "For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished ... so He never said that He is the fulfillment of the law.

Matthew 5:17,18 Searcher/or someone else I would like to know what do you do with the jots and tittles concerning animal sacrifices which are commandments in the Law. Can we remove half/part of the Law and what Law tells us we can? What did Jesus mean when He said "It is finished" on the cross?What does Hebrews 7:11,12,18,19; 8:6-13 mean?? |

4 | What does jot or tittle mean?? | Matt 5:18 | Searcher56 | 170754 | ||
Jots and tittles are little marks placed above and below the letters in Hebrew writing. It is like some marks over Roman characters in other languages. It changes the meaning of words ... and are very small compared to the letter themseleves. | ||||||
