Subject: Is the Law abolished or not? |
Bible Note: No! they are not conflict and contradict each other. Christ fulfilling the law with a deep and meaning, it is totally different what moses taught in his people in the old testament time. Christ said he come to fulfill the law, but He done works that punisheable by death inside the law If we remember that law forbid to do works in sabbath day. Christ did He did healing and other works in sabbath: Mt 12:1 ¶ At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat. t 12:15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all; If we think that Christ breaking the law by doing those things, He is imprudent and contradict Himself in matt 15:17 In Ephesians 2:15 He abolished it by freeing us to the works of law and not disobeying the law! He free us in sacrificial like lamb, cow and other animals by making Himself a ultimate offering. By His death we are free from the law. For example, in the old testament gathering stick in the day of sabbath is punisheable by death. We have to stone our brother and sister if they do this in the day of sabbath Christ free us from this kind of practices and works of the law. We dont have to stone somebody if we caught them commiting adultery. Those are some works of the law that Christ free us by His death. Christ abolishing the law by freeing us in the works of the law but not disobeying the law. If we remember that Christ give us the two great commandments, If we observe this two commandments there is no single teaching of the law we disobeying. Christ fulfilling the law by observing the two commandments. God bless, Johnny |
