Jesus Came to Fulfill the Law

"Evangelical" is at an All-Time Low

Yet Jesus Remains Revered

Would Jesus Abandon the Old System?

Jesus Came to Fulfill the Law

Three Kinds of Law

• Ceremonial law
• Civil law
• Moral law

Jesus Not Only Upheld the Law; He Raised the Bar

“The law orders that we, after attempting to do what is ordered, and so feeling our weakness under the law, may learn to implore the help of grace.”
- Augustine of Hippo

Religion Uses Standards to Judge and Condemn

"The difference between Jesus' holiness ethic and that of the Pharisees is this: the Pharisees refuse to touch any unclean thing. Jesus aims to make the unclean holy."
- Mark Galli

Jesus Embraces Sinners
