As I said, Evangelicals have lumped together the moral law and the law of Moses and that’s where the basis of the disagreements come in.

It’s easy to demonstrate that the Law of Moses and the Ten Commandments were not considered to be equal or identical.

1. The Ten Commandments existed at the time of man’s creation. The Law of Moses did not.

2. The Ten Commandments were written in stone. The Law of Moses was written on parchment.

3. The Ten Commandments were put inside the Ark, inaccessible to man to change, erase, or adjust. The Law of Moses was placed outside the Ark of the Covenant.

4. There is no logical reason to ever invalidate the Commandments. But the Law of Moses was always intended to end at the Cross, for it pointed towards the Cross.

So according to your logic, namely that the commandments were written in stone but the law of Moses was written on parchment, where does the account of Jesus’ life death and resurrection stand? Somewhere below the 10 commandments since it wasn’t written in stone? Well the account of his resurrection is written on human hearts... millions of them down through the ages... many of them could not even read. Sorry but I think your heart is as hard as those stone tablets!

1. The Ten Commandments existed at the time of man’s creation. The Law of Moses did not.

Scriptural evidence for this?

The Word of God tells us of only one commandment:

Genesis 2:16 - “And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

Anyone wanting to know more about the SDA cult and their false prophet founder - Ellen G. White can start reading here, where she writes about the plan of redemption in a unScriptural manner. (http://www.whiteestate.org/books/pp/pp4.html)

****1. The Ten Commandments existed at the time of man’s creation. The Law of Moses did not.****

Deu 4:10 [Specially] the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and [that] they may teach their children.

Deu 4:13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, [even] ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

Deu 5:2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.

Deu 5:3 The LORD made NOT THIS COVENANT with our fathers, but with US, [even] us, who [are] all of us here alive this day.

Deu 5:6 ¶ I [am] the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.

Deu 5:7 ¶ Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

1Ki 8:9 [There was] nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
