Lion, You have just hit on one of the favorite SDA quotes. Certainly He did not come to abolish the Law, but what is the result of His fulfilling it? Once something has been fulfilled, in some cases it is also ended. Is that the case? It is one of those situations where you can read into it differently, I believe. Thanks |

onlyme, I wouldn't know about SDA or not. I view myself as many others as a disciple and follower of Jesus Christ. The result of Jesus fulfilling the law is that we are no longer under it. Look at the gospel accounts of the last supper if you would. They mention a new covenant. The new will supersede the old. Look at the Greek translation for abolish and fulfill. You will notice distinct differences in definition and connotation. Should we read into it differently? With scriptures such as 1 Timothy 4:16, 2 Timothy 2:15, 3:16,17 and 2 Peter 1:20,21 in mind do we have any business reading anything into it. Romans 15:4 clarifies allot where the law and the old covenant are concerned. These scriptures aught to be bedrock for all Christians. If not they better be. In Him, lionheart |

lion, I still do not know what scripture you are referring to that states that Jesus fulfilled the law. As far as the Last Supper is concerned, the wine, the blood of the new covenant was for the forgivenes of our sins, nothing at all to do with the Ten Commandments. 1 Timothy 4:16, 2 Timothy 2:15, 3:16,17 and 2 Peter 1:20,21 are not relevant to this thread that I can see. Romans 15:4 refers to everything that was written in the past having importance. This would certainly include the Ten Commandments, which would include Sabbath worship. What does that scripture clarify for you? Thanks |

onlyme, Matthew 5:17- Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish,but to fulfill. Did Jesus fulfill or not? Either He didn't or He did. Were not the Ten Commandments part of the Old Covenant. As for Romans 15:4, just about everything. In Him, lionheart |
