THE TWO BIBLICAL LAWS

   Many speak about "The Law" not realizing that there are 2 laws mentioned in the Bible. We will go over both of them here. One was abolished at the cross, the other is "Eternal." Be very careful that you don't mistake one for the other!

   Too many people think that there was only one law in the Bible and that it was abolished at the cross. But, as you can see here there are two different laws frequently spoken of in the Bible. The first is the Ten Commandments, which is an eternal law, the character of God, holy just and good. The other is Moses' law of ordinances and ceremonies. A law of judgemants, sacrafices, etc. This law of Moses' was abolished at the cross, not the Ten Commandments.
   God's law, THE TEN COMMANDMENTS will "Stand fast forever and ever. Psalms 111:7,8.
