Bible Note: Greetings Chris! Thanks for the response my friend! I definitely agree that we must not be bound by Law. However, I do disagree that we shouldn't look back to the moral law for guidance. For instance, 2 Tim. 3:16-17 says, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." There is an excellent pattern revealed in this passage. "Teaching" and "Correcting" refer to the positive presentation of doctrine and the correction of false doctrine, while "Training" and "Rebuking" refer to the positive presentation of how one should conduct one's life and the confrontation of sin. So, I'm in agreement that we are not saved by doing good! However, I believe (to use your terms) that the moral law will always coincide with the Law of Christ. Lying is always wrong. Stealing is always wrong, ect.... Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
