Bible Question: We should still follow the ten commandments shouldn't we? |
Bible Answer: This is a debate that has been dsicussed for a long time. Are we under Grace alone or the Law and Grace? First it should be noted, that No where in the Bible has the Law been recanted, negated, or done away with. It is still very much in effect today. In fact, In Matthew 5:17, Jesus teaches us that he came to complete it. As a result, He finalized sacrifices, with his own sacrifice. He placed the judgement and punishment for God alone to deal with. What remains is the nature of the Law. Remember, The Law is what God desires of our behavior. God's desires haven't changed. So, should we follow the Ten Commandments? Yes, very much so. Why? Because Christ never told us not to. Jesus Loves You! Jesusman |
