Bible Note: John 1:17 17 For the Law was given through Moses ; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ. #1 Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ #2 The law came through Moses Exodus 34:27-28 27 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel." 28 So he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights ; he did not eat bread or drink water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments. #1 To whom was the Lord speaking in these verses? Moses. #2 God made this covenant (Ten Commandments) with Moses and the nation of Israel. #3 Do these verses say that God made this covenant (Ten Commandments) with Christians? NO! Galatians 3:16-19 16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, "And to seeds," as referring to many, but rather to one, "And to your seed," that is, Christ. 17 What I am saying is this : the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years later, does not invalidate a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise. 18 For if the inheritance is based on law, it is no longer based on a promise ; but God has granted it to Abraham by means of a promise. 19 Why the Law then ? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the seed would come to whom the promise had been made. #1 The Law was given until the ___seed_____ should come. #2 The seed referred to __Jesus____ . #3 God intended for the Law He gave to Moses and the Jews to last only until the time of Christ. TRUE! Luke 16:17 17 "But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one stroke of a letter of the Law to fail. Matthew 5:17-18 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. #1 Jesus came to fulfill the law. TRUE! #2 Jesus said the Law would not pass away until all was fulfilled (accomplished). TRUE! #3 It would have been easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for the Law to pass away before its time. TRUE! #4 Did Jesus say the Law would never pass away? NO! #5 Did Jesus say the Law would pass away when heaven and earth passed away? NO! #6 Jesus said the Law would pass away when all was accomplished (fulfilled). Not before. TRUE! John 19:28-30 28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, "I am thirsty." 29 A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth. 30 Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished !" And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. #1 All was accomplished (fulfilled) when Jesus died on the cross. TRUE! #2 Therefore, the Law passed away when Jesus died on the cross. TRUE! |
