Christian faith obligates us to do the will of God, not as revealed in the Law, but as revealed in the person of Christ.

This sums it up for me. We follow Christ, not the Law.

Another Brinsmead Bump. For discussion.

Jesus perfectly lived and fulfilled the law.

Every night I need to have the table set for our family's supper. I can order one of my children to set it. They do it, sometimes cheerfully, sometimes with grumbling.

But oh how happy I am when, at the proper time, a child gets up and sets that table without me asking. And happier still when they come to me and hug me and tell me they love me and enjoy doing what I want them to do.

This article is good. Now, it should be expanded to include other new testament "commandment of the Lord", such as 1 Cor 14:37, 1 John 3:23, etc.
