“Law,” The Dirty Word (part 4)

Some people are easily perplexed by the ploy that the Ten Commandments are the Law of Moses. They use Luke 2:22-24 in which the ceremonial aspects of the "law of Moses" are also labeled as part of the "law of the Lord." Why is the "law of Moses" also called the "law of the Lord"? Simply, all law comes from God!  Moses is not the lawmaker! He was a liaison, merely telling the people the laws that God placed in motion (John 1:17). The Law of Moses is never regarded as the Ten Commandments.  It encompasses only statutes and judgments, which God gave him to communicate to the nation.  The distinction between the Law of Moses and the Ten Commandments is that God spoke the commandments, but by request of the people, Moses conveyed the statutes and judgments. Remember when Moses initially delivered the statutes and judgments; the sacrificial system was not connected with it. Jeremiah makes that clear (Jer. 7:22)! The Law of Moses was originally the civil law based on the principles of the Ten Commandments.  These civil statutes and judgments are straight, true and to be followed (Ps. 119:7-8). But after the ratification of the Old Covenant (Ex. 24), the Levitical priesthood was established and the laws regulating offerings were added (Exodus 28:1). Prior to this time offerings were voluntary and performed by the individual—Exodus 24:5. Hence the Law of Moses has more than one part! Notice God's inspired description of the original part of that law in Malachi 4:4: "Remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and judgments that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel." This law we are not to disregard.  We are to keep it!

However, added to this law later were other statutes regulating material rituals such as sacrifices, burning incense, lighting of candles and various washings for the unclean. This almost unnoticed reality that the Law of Moses was composed of two separate parts—the civil and the ritualistic—is what causes so much obscurity in understanding! In the New Testament, Jesus instructed in accordance with Old Testament teaching that the two great commandments were love toward God and love toward neighbor (Lev. 19:18; Deut. 6:4).  In 2 John 5 and 6, God commands Christians to obey these two basic, spiritual and summation laws, which He corresponded to the people through Moses!  In 2 Kings 23:25, Josiah is praised because he "turned to the Lord with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his might, according to the Law of Moses!" Notice how simple it is.  The civil law of Moses expounds the Ten Commandments by revealing how the ten basic principles are to be applied.  We are to keep this part of the law today according to its spirit and intent.

But what about love—is it more than the score in a tennis match? Does love do away with the Ten Commandments? The Apostle John—one of the “sons of thunder” later wrote so much about love—surely he would be one to know. In 1 John 4:8, he wrote: “He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” Again in verse 16, he said, “And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.” Obviously then, the Apostle John place a great deal of importance on love. But he didn’t say, nor does any other inspired scripture, that love put away, superseded or destroyed the law. As a matter of fact, the very apostle who talked so much about love, also stated: “For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous” (1 John 5:3), and paraphrased Jesus Christ’s saying, “If ye love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). Love then, far from superseding and doing away with the law—the Ten Commandments—is the very heart and core of the law. It is the spirit of the law. Love is the very tool Christ used to intensify, magnify and fulfill His law (Rom. 13:10; Matt. 5:17; Isa. 42:21). In the New Testament the concept of a new commandment is made mention of. For instance, “A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another” (John 13:34). Of course, most mainstream religions of our world today, with the professing Christians that attend them prescribe into the idea that Jesus Christ did away with those mean, old, constricting and binding Old Testament laws. Many teach that He not only nailed the law to the cross, but that He conceived a new commandment for New Testament Christians. What did Jesus Christ really mean when He said, “A new commandment I give to you that you love one another?” Was this command of love really new? Was this teaching on love really some radically new idea that the disciples had never heard of before? When Jesus Christ stated in Matt 22:39 that the 2nd great commandment was; Love your neighbor as yourself, was this some magnificent, foreign teaching? The answer is emphatically no! As one reference scripture we can use Lev 19:18, which is the Law of Moses containing the statues and ordinances, which expounded the spiritual Law of God and says you shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself. The principle of love was not new. Jesus Christ was teaching from the O.C. He was quoting O.T. law, which was something the Jews were very familiar with. What did He mean by giving a new commandment? Again is it quoted in I John 2:7-8: “Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning. Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth” Love is not a brand new concept for today only. This verb is just as much a concept of the Old Covenant as it is the New Covenant. The commandment was new in that Jesus Christ magnified it in His own perfect life. He showed the spiritual intent and the true depth of the commandments. How? Throughout Christ’s life He taught and showed by example that keeping God’s law was an expression of love—toward God and neighbor. Jesus Christ showed us how the law actually functions in day-to-day living. He practiced what he preached—perfectly. He was always giving of Himself—and we see this in the many examples in His life—the teaching of the multitudes, healing the sick, feeding the hungry, humility—foot washing, sacrificing Himself and forgiving us for doing it. He showed the full spiritual intent of the Ten Commandments. His own example made it new; an example of how to love your neighbor by loving your enemies and by laying down your life. Jesus Christ left us an example to follow (1 Peter 2:21)—an example that Christians should have a true spiritual love for one another. A Christian should have no place for evil or darkness—a love that finds full expression in the spirit of the Ten Commandments. This is accomplished by staying close to God and surrendering ourselves to Him to the point that Jesus Christ lives His life in and through us (Gal. 2:20).

Some believe that the law of God was nailed to the cross. They believe that Jesus did everything for us and gave a new commandment that superceded all previous laws. In Rom. 13:10 we are told that love is the fulfilling of the law—the fulfilling of the Ten Commandments. The life of Jesus Christ shows us a perfect example of obedience toward God the Father and of love toward man. The new commandment spoken of by Jesus and by John is simply not doing away with anything, as many believe. The new commandment is reinforcing, magnifying and making the Ten Commandments evermore binding on Christians today. The new commandment gives us an example to follow: showing us the true spiritual intent and outlining a way of life—one of love, giving and serving. According to Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, magnify is defined as: “extol, laud, cause to be held in greater esteem or respect; increase in significance; intensify.” This undoubtedly fits with the Messianic prophecy found in Isaiah 42:21. Jesus Christ certainly confirmed and verified that this indeed was His purpose—to literally make great and cause to be great—God’s law!

In Old Testament times God only required a physical, mechanical and visible obedience. In other words, obedience in the letter. In New Testament times, God has required much more. He wants us to follow Him to the spiritual limits of His law. That’s what Christ’s ministry was to teach and demonstrate. To be sure we understood this new, magnified style of lawkeeping, Jesus Christ gave some vivid examples. In Matthew 5:21, He said, “Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment.” Here comes the new, magnified application, “But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire” (v22). Does this sound like Christ is doing away with the law? This teaching goes on extensively throughout the remainder of the chapter. Rather than being done away with, we find the influence of the law extended to include the intent, thoughts and attitudes! God’s Commandments are magnified in scope and His love is expressed through keeping them in their spirit and intent as well as the letter. And so we see the ancient prophecy of Isaiah fulfilled and the law indeed magnified and made honorable (Isa. 42:21).

Were the Ten Commandments done away at the cross? Has a new commandment taken the place of the ten? Just what is the truth? Jesus said, “…if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments (Matt. 19:17). Did He mean the Ten Commandments or some other commandment? Have the Ten Commandments been replaced? Have some, but not others been approved in the New Testament? Have some been altered or changed? If we love Jesus Christ we will want to know for sure which commandments He was referring to—our salvation depends upon it. Many are simply confused, but there is no need for confusion. The scriptures will show the truth if we diligently search for God’s inspired answer. The rich young ruler had the same question we are asking today—which (v18)—in answer Jesus quoted 5 out of 10 from Exodus 20 (v18-19). He then summed up these five commandments—concerning our relationship with our neighbors. Obviously, when Jesus used the word commandments, He was referring to the Ten Commandments of Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5. Even though Jesus mentioned half of the Ten Commandments here, someone might suppose that things changed after the cross.  Let’s see if all Ten Commandments are found in the words of Jesus and in the letters of the apostles, particularly those of Paul, the apostle to the Gentiles. We cannot love God properly if we do not love our neighbor, so let us see if the last six commandments concerning our neighbor are reiterated in the New Testament.

We have already read what Jesus said in Matt. 19:19, “Honor your father and your mother”—the 5th Commandment! Did Paul the apostle to the Gentiles reiterate this commandment in his writings? Indeed, he repeated it almost word for word (Eph. 6:1). In addition, he explained the spiritual intent and purpose of this law. This is the first commandment with promise. Additionally, we see the supreme example of how Jesus was subject to His parents (Luke 2:41-52) and how He took care of His mother (John 19:25-27).The Sixth Commandment against murder was given by Jesus in Matt. 19:18. He also thoroughly explains the spiritual intent and purpose of this command showing we are not even to hate (Matt. 5:21-22). Far from being done away this command actually is therefore more binding in this New Testament time than it ever was before (Matt. 15:19). The Apostle Paul repeats this command in Romans 13:8-10 proving it is still a sin to murder another human being. John records: “Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him” (1 John 3:15). The Seventh Commandment forbids adultery. Is it surprising that so many want to ignore or simply do away with this command today? Truly, the wrong use of sex has been a widespread problem in many lives in every century (Heb. 13:4)! But Jesus showed that it is more encompassing now than before the Old Testament period. He also emphasized its importance and spiritual application today (Matt. 5:28, 15:19, 19:17; Rom. 13:9). Paul exposed that it was still binding even on the Gentiles. The Eighth Commandment prohibits stealing (Matt. 15:19, 19:18; Rom. 13:9)—“You shall not steal.” Some were told, “Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth” (Eph. 4:28). Clearly this command is also binding today, just as it was at Mt. Sinai. Sometimes it can be a challenge to find a completely truthful person. This was clearly evidenced by the 2008 hearings of those who were questioned for their part in causing the recession in which millions lost money, homes and jobs! Who do you trust? It almost seems that the whole world consists of people who shade the truth, tell “white lies” or just plain “black lies.” Christ commanded His followers to never lie (Matt. 19:18)—the Ninth Commandment. Paul taught this same doctrine in Romans 13:9. It is still a capital or major sin to lie (Eph. 4:25; 1 John 2:4)! The Tenth Commandment against coveting was not mentioned by Jesus in Matt. 19. Did He do away with this command? Notice: “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15). Paul reiterated this to the Gentiles in Rome: “What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet” (Rom. 7:7). This is again mentioned in Romans 13:9. In fact, the 6th through 10th commandments are all given there. Notice that Paul agreed with Jesus and summed up the keeping of the last 6 commandments by stating that this is the way to love our neighbor (Rom. 13:9-10).. If it is sin to violate one of these last six commands, then it certainly must be a sin to violate any of the first four, which explain the right way to love God.

In the First Commandment God said, “You shall have no other gods before me” (Ex. 20:3). Jesus showed plainly that this command was still in effect when He rebuked Satan: “And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve” (Luke 4:8). This command against idolatry is mentioned many times elsewhere in the New Testament (1 Cor. 10:7; Eph. 4:5-6). The Second Commandment, which prohibits the worship of or bowing down before images, is given in detail by Paul in Romans 1:18-25. In this place he shows that the pagan philosophers, who knew God, did not worship Him as God. Instead they began to worship the things that they made with their hands. These people were violating the command of God against making images and then using them in their religious worship (John 4:24; 2 Cor. 6:16-17).The Third Commandment prohibits the use of God’s name in vain. It is often referred to as a sin of blasphemy (1 Tim. 1:19-20). This sin is mentioned several times—“But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth” (Col. 3:8). There are many additional scriptures which plainly show that these commands are still in effect. The most thought provoking of these is found in 2 Timothy 2:19, which says, “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.” If you have been keeping track you realize there is one more to go. Last, but not least the grand-poobah of them all—the Fourth Commandment! The one that is most readily disposed of: “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy…” is the one which most people have forgotten and falsely claim was left out of the New Testament. However, is it reasonable that God who is the same “yesterday, today and forever” would have left out any of the Ten Commandments in the New Testament, especially, considering what David was inspired to write in Psalm 111:7-8?

Notice a promise in Hebrews 4:9: “There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.” Chapter four tells of the millennial rest to come for God’s people who are faithful and inherit the promises of God. A rest is mentioned several times prior to verse 9. The Greek word for rest in the first part of this chapter is katapausin; however, in verse 9 the word rest comes from an entirely different Greek word, sabbatismos. This word literally means, as many margins show, “keeping of a Sabbath.” The Sabbath rest each week is a memorial of creation and a picture of the soon-coming millennial “rest.” Notice these points about this verse. This keeping of the Sabbath remains. It is not forgotten, or done away, or nailed to the cross. And, it remains for the people of God. If it still remains, it is holy to God and we should therefore keep it that way! The Sabbath foreshadows the fact that God is soon going to bring a millennium of peace, the 7th thousand-year period, to this world. Jesus Christ will usher in a world ruling government. Paul instructed “follow me as I follow Christ” (1 Cor. 11:1). Peter told us to walk as Christ walked (1 Peter 2:21). Jesus Christ always kept the Sabbath (Luke 4:16). This makes sense given He is Lord of the Sabbath, not Sunday (Luke 6:5). Paul taught and followed Christ in always keeping the Sabbath (Acts 13:42-44; Acts 17:2; Acts 18:4). “But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day” (Matt. 24:20)—if the Sabbath doesn’t matter then why mention it?

Romans 8:7 states, “Because the carnal mind is enmity [hostile] against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be” How sad that “law” has become a dirty word. How sad that so many profess God; yet, reject His rule in their lives, which would lead to peaceful, happy and abundant lives. How ironic? It should be crystal clear now—to the mind that is open—that all Ten Commandments are to be obeyed today! It is obvious from the hundreds of Old Testament and New Testament scriptures that they are to be followed as a way of life. These commands of God are in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and form a common thread throughout His inspired Word. This is the way to live happily and abundantly. It brings the right kind of results. It is the way, through Christ, that we may inherit His free gift of everlasting life. Will you obey and live?

Why do we read in the book of Acts that Gentile converts do not have to observe the "Law of Moses," except for four points? (Acts 15.) The answer is explained in Acts 21:21. As proven, the laws of Moses called into question concerned "customs."  Check it for yourself.  The Jews were falsely accusing Paul, saying that he taught Jews living abroad "… they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs" (Acts 21:21)! The controversy in the early Church did not engage the civil Law of Moses.  It involved only the ritualistic additions to the original civil law of Moses—merely customs—added ceremonies, sacrifices, cleanings and rituals. This is further established by noticing the four points, included in the law added by Moses, which are binding on all Christians everywhere today.  We are instructed not to eat blood, animals which are strangled, meats offered to idols or to commit fornication. These four points were formerly part of the civil law of Moses. But they were also included later with the added ceremonies to regulate the usual sacrifices.  Typically, the Gentiles ate their sacrifices with the blood, often strangled their animals and presented them to idols and commonly committed fornication in their religious ceremonies. In order to avert these pagan customs from being adopted by Israel, God integrated the four civil laws along with the rituals. (See Lev. 17:7, 10 and Num. 25:1-3.) When the material ceremonies were abolished (in Acts 15), these four points had to be declared binding because some would have thought they were eliminated along with the temporary rituals.  But since these four points were part of the original civil law before the addition of the rituals, they continued to be binding after the abolition of the physical sacrifices and washings! How plain! Only the ceremonial “customs” of the Law of Moses have been nailed to the cross. The civil Law of Moses, which further defined sin was not called into question in Acts 15, it was not involved. Of course, Paul further explains that the civil law is now to be observed in the spirit and full intent of its meaning (2 Cor. 3).

Physical circumcision was instituted long before the Law of Moses and therefore was not really a part of it. However, it must be understood that circumcision in it spiritual intent, is not done away—like the Ten Commandments it is still in force today. But, similar to the Passover, the manner of circumcision has been changed. Circumcision is now of the heart, not of the male foreskin (Deut. 10:16; 30:6; Rom. 2:28-29; Col, 2:11).

The many civil laws regulating tithing, clean and unclean meats, sex, annual Sabbaths and many others are certainly enforced for the New Testament church because they expound what sin is.  They were inclusive of the ritualistic Law of Moses abolished in Acts 15 and mentioned in Hebrews 9:10 of which Paul discussed the rites and ceremonies of the Levitical priesthood. He wrote, “Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.” This is speaking of the Levitical priesthood’s ordinances and service of the tabernacle. These are superceded  today as they were only imposed until the coming of the Holy Spirit, which rendered them unnecessary—spirit-begotten Christians now being able to worship God in “spirit and truth” (John 4:24).  The civil principles of the Law of Moses were a separate law and not part of the added "Law of Moses," which is no longer binding.

Now let us reflect on the use of the death penalty in Old Testament times, which also existed long before the Law of Moses (Gen. 9:5-6). Why does the church not enforce the death penalty for Sabbath-breakers or for any other violation of God’s spiritual law? Matthew 5 reveals part of the answer. Jesus was anticipating doubts in the minds of the disciples.  He initiates by teaching He came to keep the law, not to destroy it.  Then He proceeds to alter the application of the civil laws as they were given to ancient Israel.  He magnifies them, makes them honorable and fills them to the full (Isa. 42:21; Matt. 5:17). He elevates them from narrow, nationalistic laws—given to a carnal nation to be administered according to the strict letter—to a spiritual plane regulating the whole of human society.  Six times Jesus says: "You have heard that it was said by them of old time... But I say to you ..." and He then proceeds to expound the spiritual principles underlying the civil Law of Moses. Case in point, notice Matthew 5:38: "Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." Some of the judgments in the Old Covenant called for an "eye for an eye," and a "tooth for a tooth," and a "life for a life" (Ex. 21:23, 24). The judgment in verse 23 was especially designed to protect pregnant women (verse 22). A man who had caused the death of a pregnant woman had to pay for it with his own life. The judge required the killer's life and thereby was administering a penalty of death—the “ministration of death” as noted in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8. Why does the Bible teach the "ministration of death" was glorious (1 Cor. 10:11; 2 Cor. 3:7). The principles of the Ten Commandments formed the basis of the civil statutes and judgments; a violation of these principles punished by Old Covenant civil authority. The administration of death was the civil execution of punishment for violation of certain laws in the civil law code, which Moses spoke to the people. Such sins as murder, kidnapping and adultery were punishable by death. Sinners were brought to the realization that they had transgressed the law of God. They were made to recognize how woefully they had failed to measure up to the keeping of the law. Thus their own human weakness was impressed upon the individual and the nation. Israel sinned constantly, and was constantly reminded of it! Their history is a lesson to us, today (I Cor. 10:11), to make us also grasp our weakness and need of divine power in overcoming our own human nature (Rom. 8:7). This exemplifies why the ministration of death was glorious. It accomplished a glorious purpose. Old Covenant Israel, as a whole, was never offered God's Holy Spirit of love with which to keep the law of God in its spiritual intent. All they could possibly do was attempt to keep the law in the letter by their own human strength. Had the Israelites kept the law in the letter, God would have fulfilled His part of the Old Covenant and given them all the material promises of this physical covenant. But they would never have received everlasting life by keeping the Old Covenant. One would still ultimately die because there was absolutely no promise of everlasting life in the Old Covenant! It is only the Holy Spirit of God that will give "life"—everlasting life (2 Cor. 3:6.)

The "ministration of death" was a temporary administration—it existed only "till the seed [Christ] should come" (Gal. 3:19). At this time God sent Christ to introduce a new administration of these same laws—the administration of the Spirit (2 Cor. 3:6-8). This is necessary because the first administration gave only severe penalties and even death for disobedience. Human judges could not impart everlasting life; they could only administer death. What was needed was a new administration of the same laws—an administration, which could give pardon and everlasting life to those who repented of breaking God's laws and wanted to obey. The promise of the Holy Spirit—the guarantee of everlasting life—was given to all repentant believers for the first time on the Feast of Pentecost, A.D. 31 (Acts 2:1, 38.) In place of administering the death penalty for sins, Christ, the apostles, and the church of God today teaches the way to everlasting life. Thus, Christ through His body "administers" life to mortal man. It is interesting to note that God ordained the ministration of death principle as a judgment long before He restated it to the Israelites at Mount Sinai as a part of His covenant. He later made it a part of His covenant with Israel so that their failure to measure up to the keeping of His law may be impressed upon all, and that all would fear to brazenly break God's laws (Deut. 19:20-21).

Jesus restored the spiritual laws as they were from the beginning.  But why was Moses commanded to give them only in the letter to ancient Israel? Ancient Israel was not like the church of God today.  It was a carnal nation organized into the “congregation in the wilderness.”  They did not have the promise of the Holy Spirit; they were a nation of this world.  Moses stated that they did not even have the power or strength of will to keep what little he commanded them (Deut. 5:29). And neither do human beings today!  People don't want to obey the commandments. "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be" (Rom. 8:7).  Israel needed punishments for lawbreakers to keep peace and security in the land; therefore God allowed human judges to take His divine prerogatives and to execute punishments on their fellow men. Jesus gave the civil law to Moses in the strict letter at Mt. Sinai for a physical congregation. Fifteen centuries later the same Jesus restored the spirit of the law to spiritual Israel—the church of God (Gal. 6:16). Jesus came to make it possible for us to repent, be forgiven and to have the very nature of God acting within us. He thereby restored the civil law to its original spiritual perfection; He showed how to live it and He also made it possible for the members of His spiritual, New Testament church to keep all His binding laws by sending the Holy Spirit. Notice the New Testament teaching. Jesus—the living Head of His church—told the disciples: "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven" (Matt. 5:19). How important it is that we—the students of Jesus today—become familiar with the least commandments—that we live by every Word of God (Matt. 4:4). “Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up” (Deut. 11:18-19). This is for us today! No one can gain entrance into God's Kingdom unless that individual first recognizes the authority and rule of God.

We are not to argue with God or use human reasoning to elude the plain commands of Scripture. God is Supreme Lawgiver. He knows what is best for us.  He has perfect wisdom and understanding. We can place our confidence in Him and rely on His judgment, which He committed to writing for us—in the Bible. The human tendency is often to justify and side-step what seems of lesser importance to us.  It is so very easy for us to say.  "This is what I think or here is the way I see it." This attitude is exactly what makes other churches carnal and worldly—of the devil.  They use their human reason instead of accepting the Bible as the final authority! Let us all open our minds and come to a new understanding of true and pure Christianity—law abiding Christianity—original Christianity as described in the Bible!
