ALL THE LAWS OF GOD HAVE TWO BASIC or MAIN FOUNDATIONS:
I. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.This is the first and great commandment. And;
II. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
This two basic foundations of the Law is a summary of all Laws of God. Since this is a summary and not the specifics, it is wrong on our part to disregard or reject the specifics. For if we reject and erase the specifics Laws how can we know how to Love God and our neighbor? Therefore it is important to be aware of this truth. Without the specifics of the Law we can never know how to truly love. We may know that love is patient, love is kind…but w/o the tutor -the specifics- even the definition of love in 1 Corinthian 13 would be worthless.
Many of those who profess that they are the authority of the Bible would teach you that love is all that matters and that we should not anymore be concerned about the specific Laws. And if my hunch is right, after I post this comment-there would be somebody to contradict what I am saying here. This is just a hunch, not sure yet if their foolishness would go so far as to contradict what is clear.
The perfect- the Ten Commandment can thus be divided like like this:
I. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.This is the first and great commandment. How?
1 “I am the Lord your God… You shall have no other gods before Me.
2 “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them.
3 “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain…
4 “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy…
II. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. How?
5 “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
6 “You shall not murder.
7 “You shall not commit adultery.
8 “You shall not steal.
9 “You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
10 “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
There are other Laws such as those regarding Marriage/ Sexual Relations in Leviticus 18, those about food in Leviticus 11, those about the Seven Feasts of the Kingdom of God, those about how to use the soil of the earth to keep it fertile, and etc. We may put them into any of the Two Basic Foundations as we see fit.
Most of those who desires to be teachers of the Law in rejecting the specific Laws of God have turned their teachings into vain jaggling-ever learning but never coming to the knowledge of the Truth, twisting the scriptures into their own destruction and those that follows them.
Last note to balance your view:
1. Salvation is by Grace and not of works..but the Laws of God must be established (Romans 3:31)’
2. The Law and the testimony must bind and sealed among the disciples of God (Isaiah 8:16);
3. Christians are ministers of the spirit and not the LETTER (2 Corinthians 3:6);
4. Christians sings two songs-the Law of Moses and the Grace of the Lamb-keep a balance (Revelation 15:3)…
The biggest lie that ever was pulled over by the devil and his dupes of false teachers had been made on the Laws of God on marriage and sex which now had resulted inthe deceptions of hundred of millions of people together with their families, driving these people and their societies toward loneliness, break-up, divorce, homosexualty and other sins…hoping you maintain an open mind!
