THE BIBLE
Question and Answer Column

Question and Answer Column Bible Question and Answer Column
 Q To what law was Christ re- ferring in Matthew 5:172
 When will all be fulfilled Mat thew 5:18?
 A. Matthew 5:I7, IT reads as follows Think not that l am come to destroy the law or the pro phets; l am not come to destroy but to fulfill.
 For vanly I say unto you till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one little shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
 In connection with verse IT read verse 20: For l say unto you. that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the seribes and pharisees ye shall in no case enter the kingdom of heaven
 There is only one standard of righteousness and that is Gods royal lay. the ten commandments See James 2:S-12 and 1 John 3:4 and 5:17 Clearly then this is the law that Christ refers To.
 To fulfill means to live up to or to keep. The law is summed mp into the two commandments. Love to God and love To man. Matthew I22:35-4O.
 The fulfnlment of the law then would be the keeping of the law. This can be done only in Christ. who has promised to write the law in the human heart. Hebrews 8:10.
 So We see the law is eternal and |will endure forever. Obedience tl it is the only way to life. and it is the standard by which we will be judged James 2:12.
