Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this portion of his discourse on the Sermon on the Mount, Steve Gregg discusses the often-misunderstood passage of Matthew 5:17-20. He emphasizes that the loyalty and reverence for the law and prophets in the Old Testament scriptures are tantamount to the reverence for God himself. Gregg points out that Jesus did not destroy the laws in the Old Testament but fulfilled them, setting an example for followers. Additionally, he distinguishes between ritual and moral laws and explains how they relate to New Testament teachings.
