"NO ONE CHANGES GOD'S
LAW"
NO ONE CHANGES GOD'S
LAW
By A. W. Tozer
I
delight to do thy will, 0 my God: yea,
thy law
is within my heart. (Psalm 40:8)
Because
we live in a period known as the age of God's
grace, it has become a
popular thing to declare that the
Ten Commandments are no
longer valid, no longer
relevant in our society.
With
that context, it has become
apparent that
Christian churches are not
paying attention to the Ten
Commandments.
But Dwight L. Moody preached
often in the
commandments. John
Wesley said he preached the
commands of the Law to
prepare the way for the gospel.
R. A. Torrey told ministers
if they did not preach the Law,
they would have no response
to the preaching of the
gospel. It is the Law
that shows us our need for the gospel
of salvation and
forgiveness!
It is
accurate to say that our binding obligation is not to
the Old Testament
Law. As sincere Christians we are
under Christ's higher law -
- that which is represented in
His love
and grace. But everything that
is morally
commanded in the Ten
Commandments still comprises
the moral
principles that are the will of
God for His
people. God's
basic moral will for His people has not
changed!
Yours in Christ,
Paul N. F.
