Subject: Partly under the Law? |
Bible Note: Hi Doc, We receive credit for Jesus' righteous life, as if it were our own, and are declare "just", as having never broken the Law, correct? This refers to all of the Law? I think we agree on this. What I am looking for, (please pardon me if I have not be clear :-) ) is a foundation to the teaching that Jesus fulfilled, say, the "ceremonial law", and so that law no longer needs to be kept, but we are still under the "moral law", and obligated to keep it. I have read posts from a few people on this forum that have used these statements, and I was hoping to hear from someone who can elaborate on that position. I like your quote from Biggs. Very succinct! Love in Christ, Mark |
