Rethinking the Law

by Eric Lane

Is the Law of Moses (the Sinai code beginning with the Ten Commandments) the rule of life for the Christian, as it was for the Israelite in Old Testament times? This question concerns many Christians, as it did the author of this book, and in fact it was the main motive for writing it. This question cannot be answered without a thorough examination of the whole subject of the Law in both testaments. The author is convinced that he has made this examination and in so doing has answered the question about the Christian’s rule of life. He offers his findings to other Christians in the hope that this will deepen their understanding of the whole subject and of Scripture generally.

This is an examination of this question concerning whether or not the Law of Moses (the Sinai code that begins with the Ten Commandments) is the rule of life for the Christian as it was for the Israelite in Old Testament times. I wasn't convinced by his case for the Ten Commandments not being part of the Christian's life.

Law and Gospel

The author carefully lays out our distance from the Law as an entity that Christians don't have to obey perse. The change in the Christian is not facilitated by Law, but the Gospel.
