Authority of ScripturesSteve Gregg
According to Steve Gregg, Christians acknowledge the authority of Scripture and consider the Ten Commandments as authoritative today. Although Jesus inaugurated something new, he did not come to abolish the law of Moses and the prophets but to fulfill them. The law of Moses contains ceremonial, moral, and civil laws, and Jesus fulfilled the ceremonial and moral laws through his life, death, and resurrection. Paul emphasizes the importance of being dead to the law and living for Christ, which means that Christians have the liberty to choose whether or not to keep certain laws or customs depending on their context and audience.
