IF the Ten Commandments (the law) are no longer in effect , what is the problem with 'worshiping or serving idols'?
Who ever said they were no longer in effect?
You could maybe get away with it...Millions of Catholics do...What's important to note is we have liberty to do things that are not quite right but they may not be so expedient...And that is because we, as Christians are NOT under the law...
Gal_3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
You've got yourself under a curse...
Gal_3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
Are we under the law???
Gal 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
The law is no longer a law...It is a teaching...A teacher to bring us to Jesus...And be justified by faith; not works...
Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
This is so simple...Do you not see that???
Gal 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
Gal 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law,
Redeem who??? Redeem them...Not me...Redeem those under the law...
that we might receive the adoption of sons.
Who's we??? It me, and Paul and Peter and the rest...Christians...
Gal 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Gal 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Those people under the law are SERVANTS, not SONS...Are you a servant???
Heb_7:11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
And that sums it up quite nicely...If you are under the Ten Commandments, you don't need Jesus...
