Matthew 5:17-18 KJV Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. (18) For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Did heaven and earth pass? are the ten commandments merely an encapsulation of the Mosaic Law (which Christ says won't go until heaven and earth pass away (which has not happened)? Was the veil rended in two? Because that means that the 'ceremonial' law was ended by His sacrifice; but what of the rest? How *are* Christian men to live if not by the guidance of the Mosaic Law? Christ says the law is not ended - so no murder, no usury, no sodomy - where else are we to refer?
