was The LAW Given To Isreal, or Also To the Church?

Yes! I have all those and more in a special folder called "The Law Shuts Up Faith." I think it's a big hurdle for new Christians because some misguided well-meaning person told them the Ten Commandments (actually 613) will keep you walking straight. Kudos to you!

I am glad that we have an accord. Hallelujah!!


Here's something else for those who hold the Law is still in effect today:

Luke 16:15,16
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.


John came along to prepare a people for Christ through a baptism of repentence. This is where the transitioning of the Law to Grace Covenant started.

The commandments do not save, but all believers have their hearts set on keeping the commandments. If any person claims to be a believer and does not keep them they are a liar according to scripture.

1 john 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
