This paper aims to determine “the present relevance of the law of God,” arguing it “is presently (and in every age) binding upon the believer.” While God’s law “formed the basis of the Mosaic legislation, the two are not to be confused.” Mankind possesses “a law written in their hearts” reflecting “eternal principles of righteousness.” “The New Testament is clear in its teaching that the law given to Moses at Sinai has been abrogated” and “the law of Moses, in its entirety, has been abolished.” However, “the Christian is given law, a rule of life to which he is bound.” This “rule of life for today’s believer” is found in “the New Testament,” specifically “the law of Christ.” “The law of God is always binding,” but “the standard of conduct for today’s believer is found in the framework of New Covenant teaching, not that of the Old Covenant.”
