Perpetuity of the Law and Jewish holidays

1. Introduction. Perpetually ¿mean forever then say that because we have been abolished? There no contradiction in this conclusion that the New Testament calls denigrating the requirements of the Old Testament. Obviously this can be bland initial comment, but many cristianoshonestamente have reserved that question on the shelf and have not timely responses in the literature (whether we call it junk) conventional. Most times when someone says in their biblical claims that the law is abolished, highlighting the grace, or not understood or when questioned in depth detail is incapable of defending the approach, because the word does not correctly describe abolish the status and effect of Leysobre the believer. Jesus said: Mat 5:16 Let your light shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify avuestro Father who is in cielos.Mat 5:17 Think not that I came to abolish the law olos prophets, not I am come to destroy but paracumplir.Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you until they pass elcielo and earth pass, one jot or tittle will pass from Laley, till all be fulfilled. The last statement means (no exegetical options) that the Act is valid until the end of its regulatory space, the last day or last day.

The decrees of God are not fickle, but eternal but with a progressive completion. Then come back to this clarification. On the other hand Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles tells us that the law died: 2 Corinthians 3:7 But if the ministration of death written and engraved stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israelno could stare at the face of Moses from degraded the glory of his face, which was passing away, 2 Cor 3:8 How shall not the rather glorious ministeriodel spirit?

Obviously when we weigh these two statements can imagine lightly conflict positions, but one of the rules of hermeneutics is not to give authentic total weight to a passage if at least two conclusions shed no elmismo, suggested by a passage is unquestionably significant if at least two others support it, otherwise a conflict (which is evident that we are the conflicting) must appeal to the general sense, linear development of the subject and avoid deestereotipado engaged in lofty positions dogmatism. This principle should apply here, the better we review the Scripture says elsewhere to provide for herself fictional solution to this edge. 2. Purpose of the First Law of the Act is important to note the purpose of it, it always has been and will be salvation by faith, not by the law see that feud to bring to light the sin and to condemn us for no excuses to be fully committed to it, is a fiscal perfect holiness of God. The prophets foretold the coming of Christ and his redemptive work and glorious. Once we recognize sinners come to Christ through faith and declares us "righteous" in his presence.

But that justice is not justice that depend on us but it depends on the righteousness of Christ. When we come to Christ we fulfill the words of the prophets: Det 9:4 Do not think in your heart when the Lord your Dioslos has cast out from before thee, saying, mijusticia LORD has brought me to possess this land; puespor the wickedness of these Lord hurls nations ti.Det dedelante of 9:5 Not for thy righteousness or the uprightness of your corazónentras to own their land, but by the impiedadde these nations the Lord your God is dispossessing delantede you, and to confirm the word that the Lord swore to tuspadres Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

And in a statement estepropósito New Testament we see clear: Phil 3:8 Yet indeed I also count all things comopérdida for excellence CristoJesús knowledge of my Lord, for whose sake I have lost everything, I have YLO rubbish, to win Christ, Phil 3:8 and be found in Him, not having my propiajusticia, which is by law, but that which is through faith deCristo, the righteousness which is of God by faith, 3. An example used biblically. A convenient example to evaluate theological is Easter, where we see históricoprofético-soteriological purpose, not that we imagine for lanecesidad to hold our theological speculation that would be biased, as the Scripture given by inspiration was not personal, but given by the Spirit pores is authorized and all we receive it. Easter read: Exo 12:23 For the LORD will smite the Egyptians; And when he seeth the blood upon the lintel and the two doorposts, the LORD will pass over the door and will not enter into your houses to alheridor herir.Exo12: 24 You shall observe this ordinance for you Yto your children forever. How should we understand the "forever" in verse 24? We know that this party is abolished or unregulated for us, because our economy esdel Spirit not the letter.

But it is as certain as uncertain, when God says he remains "forever" that means "forever". The ceremony was the shadow estádesestimada but compliance is Christ remains "forever". Therefore "forever? is right because God has guaranteed its permanence inits Eternal Son. Let's look is actually argued to the Hebrews, Christians who problematized these issues and received a call to deaclaración way [in the opinion of the author of the hands of Paul]. Heb10: 11 And every priest stands day after díaministrando and offering oftentimes the mismossacrificios, which can never take away sins Heb10: 12 but He, having offered once parasiempre one sacrifice for sins, hasentado the right hand of God , 13 there in adelanteesperando until his enemies be made his feet porestrado, for example, that what is spoken is the story of the first Passover. At that, Paul tells us: 1 Corinthians 5:6 Your glorying is not good. Do not sabéisque a little leaven leavens the whole lump? (1) 1 Cor 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, Paraquad may be a new mass, as ye are unleavened; porquenuestra Easter (2) which is Christ, and Cor 5:8 was sacrificadapor nosotros.1 So the feast, not with the viejalevadura, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread, (3) of sincerity and deverdad.

This Easter has found its fulfillment in Christ and then (the cross) onwards is no longer a shadow, but as an eternal reality in Christ. But not only the Passover was forever, but the holidays, Saturdays, sacrifices, moon days, circumcision, etc.. were "forever." The feast of the Passover of the Israelites in Egypt and the Promised Land was 'type' and 'representation' [shadow] of the true Passover [lamb] that is Christ. The same applies to: Type [Shadow] = Reality [Compliance] - The people of Israel Israel = true Christ-Temple = true temple-Christ Unleavened Bread = Christ, an offering of holiness and purity, eternal food .- Pass the Sea Red joins Israel on the Red Sea Moses = we join with Christ through Baptism into his Body by the Spirit .- The land of Canaan = Christ is our Canaan, heavenly and eternal .- The rest [Sabbath] = Christ our rest [of salvation by grace, not works] - The High Priest Christ the High Priest = Eternity, in the order deMelquisedec-The tribe of Levi Levite = the true Christ, we are in the priesthood of all believers. - Circumcision = Christ without sin, free from all defilement of flesh.

- Isaac **= Christ sacrificed son-Jerusalem = the heavenly Jerusalem Christ .** (Figure or type separation of flesh of sin from the heart = seal of the covenant, replaced by baptism) Col 2:16 So nobody judge you by what quecomen or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon or reposo.Col 2:17 This is a shadow of things to come estánpor, the reality is found in Christ After the cross all types are long gone and reality is made manifest. That reality is Christ. It fulfills the Law and Jewish holidays, we who are in Christ through him we meet all the requirements "for ever" and "forever" and so we are not condemned. Rom5: 1 Therefore being justified by faith we have peace Paracon God through our Lord JesucristoRom 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to losque are in Christ Jesus, who walk not hang meat, but after the Spirit . Rom 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesúsme free from the law of sin and muerte.Rom 8:3 For it was impossible for the law, porcuanto was weak through the flesh, God sending Like his Hijoen sinful flesh and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh, Rom 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled ennosotros, who walk not after the flesh, sinoconforme the Spirit.

4. Christ fulfilling the Law and Jewish holidays. If not for Christ, we would be condemned as the Law of God is eternal (forever) and none of us can save. James tells us that failure queel violation point "ALL" the law. That is, if you think ill of my brother, I have violated any law. If I look at a woman who is not conlascivia mine, I have violated any law. What Israel practiced before Christ came was (type and shadow) of reality. Now that reality is present there is no need lassombras. The requirement of "forever" is still standing, but now we believers will comply fully and without fail through Christ ... Rom 5:19 For as through the disobedience of unhombre the many were made sinners, asítambién by the obedience of one shall many seránconstituidos justos.Rom 5:20 Moreover the law entered that the pecadoabundase, but where sin abounded, sobreabundóla grace, Rom 5:21, so that as sin reigned in death, even so might grace reign through righteousness to vidaeterna through Jesus Christ our Lord. By the obedience of Christ (in life and death) we are made righteous.

In Christ we do the whole law Forever!
