The Law, Part 4

The Law and the Judgments

People who believe that the New Testament has done away with God's law often point to certain passages in Paul's writings as their proof. But if you look carefully at what Paul wrote and believe that the term law has the same meaning in all of Paul's writings, you will come to the conclusion that Paul contradicts himself on this subject. To understand these verses in Paul Mr. Smith takes us in this sermon back to the giving of the law to give us the background we will need to understand Paul's writings when he covers them in the next sermon in this series on God's law.
