I've been looking at the law in the scriptures recently, particularly those verses in the NT that talk about aspects of the law (sacrifices) that Christians are no longer expected to observe, and others that they are (moral law). I'm trying to get a handle on what the verses collectively say about the law. I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions as time goes on.
I do have one question for starters that I've sometimes wondered about. Some people say that the 10 commandments are valid (for lack of a better word) today to the extent that they're repeated somewhere in the NT. I was just wondering where that idea came from. Is there some biblical support for that kind of thinking?
I'm thinking God said "Thou shalt not..." once, that's enough. Unless He says differently in the NT, the commandment stands.
