JESUS AND THE OLD TESTAMENT LAW

Jesus is committed to God’s Law

Do Christians need to unhitch from the Old Testament? (2 Timothy 3:16)

The three segments of the Old Testament law: ceremonial law, civil law, moral law

Jesus affirms that the Bible is God’s Word

JESUS TELLS US HOW TO RELATE TO GOD’S LAW

How can we surpass the Pharisees in devotion to God’s Law?

WHY DO CHRISTIANS NEED TO WORRY ABOUT KEEPING THE LAW?

The Law shows us our need for Jesus Christ (Romans 3:10, 23)

The Law shows us we are incapable of keeping it (Ezekiel 36:27)

The Law helps us understand how to express our love for God (John 14:15; Matthew 22:37, 39)
