Thank you eddif, but maybe one of you would like to start a new topic about the laws as this is nothing to do with the OP unless someone can show me how it does.
First off.
I am for us resolving differences between viewpoints. I have few problems having the law state new covenant concepts.
If there is wisdom in the OT law? I think it can be discussed (the knowledge and wisdom). It is not a hidden thing that we get nothing out off till the last trump. I do concede we get very little out of the law till the last trump.
There is a difference in seeing through a glass darkly and blindness. Just as there is a difference between seeing through a glass darkly and perfect vision.
We actually can come to understand what we can.
Post #54 scriptures say the NT and OT say the same thing. The only way to deny that statement (IMHO) is to use traditions instead of scripture. Is the law of Moses degraded? I would say yes. Is the law totally gone? I would say no.
We could face each other and say:
It is gone - vs - It is not gone totally
I posted Eph 2: 15 earlier. The NC believer is no longer under any of the OC law. imo
and Jere 31:32 NC not like the OC made with the father. imo. it is all new imo.
For the last time this thread is not about the laws and I have asked a couple times to please stay on topic. If this continues each member will be reported to the staff for being off topic.

For “what fellowship does light have with darkness?” (2 Cor 6:14). We should do what we can to be “in the world, not of it” (Jn 17:14-16) and to “abstain from every form of evil.” (1 Thessalonians 5:22) so that we may be a good witness to the eternal life that Jesus has given us, that victory over death and evil!
I like the above that was written in that article as if something appears to be evil we need to abstain from the appearance of something that is evil.
