Christ’s law

 2 Corinthians 9:21 “I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law” 

— Apostle Paul


Christ’s law? The ten commandments in a context of the body of Christ whose members must love one another. All under the provision for sins of Christ having been sacrificed on the cross and rising from the dead to forever be Great High Priest over the household of God. With the Temple being the body of Christ, this household of God. 


Note: Actually Jesus has given other commands too. Paul summed one up as saying there must not even be a hint of sexual immorality among the church. This would reflect the Lord’s teaching that even lustful thoughts can be such. There are other commands too about giving alms, selling possessions, watching unto prayer, being ready to serve, communication, and so on.
