The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg
In this overview by Steve Gregg, he explores the topic of Christ and the Law, specifically focusing on two illustrations of divorce and oaths. Gregg argues that it is important to be a person of integrity who keeps their word, regardless of whether additional affirmations or oaths are made. He also emphasizes the importance of showing love to others, even when they do not "deserve" it, and the importance of justice in our relationships. Gregg discusses the phrase "without cause" in relation to adultery and suggests that while it may be a fitting modification, it is unclear whether it belongs in the text.
