Purpose of the Law (9) - Surprise

Jesus has strong warning for those who teach people to ignore the law. Those in the modern church who despise the law should take note.

Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches othersto do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoeverpractices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom ofheaven (Matt 5:19).

This is an amazing statement. Those who teach people to ignore the law are at the bottom of the heap. Those who teach the law will be called the greatest in the kingdom. This is one that we have not noticed. Christians should think twice before they knock God’s law.
