No more animal offerings doesn't mean no more water baptism----John 3:5.

No more cleaning laws doesn't mean no more modest living----1 Timothy 6.


Matthew 5:18

Something fulfilled and yet not abolished means what ?

It means it has an expiration date.

Old milk with an expiration date will be replace with new milk with an expiration date again.
Old prescriptions with an expiration date will be replaced with new prescriptions with an expiration date again.

Old law in the bible with an expiration date will be replaced with new law with legalism again.

Example: You have heard it has been said (Old Law)
Now I say unto you (New Law)

Coming from Matthew 5.


Replacements don't abolish legalism-----Matthew 5:18.


God made both the Old Law and the New Law alike--------2 Timothy 3:16.

Can't abolish law that's expired law----Matthew 5:18.

Can't practice law that's expired law---Ephesians 2:8.

Can't abolish law that's new law----Matthew 5.

You must practice law that's new law---Matthew 5.

What you can and can't do today is still legalism today-----2 Timothy 3:16.

No class in SELF WISE WISDOM can understand this-----Jeremiah 10:23.

Can't take expiration dates off milk just because they had one before---Matthew 5:18.

Can't take expiration dates off prescriptions just because they had one before---Matthew 5:18.

Can't stop drinking milk just because it had an expiration date before---Matthew 5:18.

Can't stop taking prescriptions just because it had an expiration date before----Matthew 5:18.

Can't stop obeying the bible just because we don't practice the old law today----Matthew 5:18.


Well Christianity 101 is preached indeed !!!

ONLY attracting 100% bible believers here----Amos 3:3 and 2 Cor. 4:3 and Titus 3:10.

The LOVING BOB and LOVING JANE that's a SELF WISE EXPERT can exit from here----Psalms 1.

SELF WISE EXPERTISE is the opposite of Christianity-----Jeremiah 10:23 and Isaiah 64:6.

Nothing about Christianity is a LOVING BOB and LOVING JANE only----1 John 2:15.

Intellectuals have a problem with this ONLY----Titus 2:10 and 2 Cor. 4:3.

The Pharisees adhered to the letter of the law very good. The Lord called them whited sepulchures that look good on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanliness.
Christ says clean up the inside of the cup first and then the outer will be good.

The issue is ultimately the heart. Jesus talks about cleaning up the heart.

Christianity is not about attempting to adhere to a list of rules. It is about a life transformation by God's Spirit working in the heart of Man.

In obedience from the HEART, one obeys Christ's commands.

Be careful not to stumble at the same stumbling stone as the Pharisees.

They never put their trust in God's Messiah, but attempted to approach Him with adherence to a written law.

And they were ground to powder as the Lord states.
