hahahah.
All nice, but it has nothing to do with my comment!
What I am saying, if a person lives right, then law (i.e. statute law, civil law, contract law) is not necessary to keep them in check or on the right path. Law in our society is primarily there to prevent bad people from doing bad things.
I'm not talking about scripture here.
But to address your comment above, in my understanding, Paul is talking about the mosaic teachings, the "Law" as it were, given in the Old Testament. He's saying that the relevance of the Mosaic teachings does not simply disappear because Jesus's teaching is superior.
In other words, the truth conveyed in the Gospels, (NT) adds to the principles in the Old Testament, and doesn't abolish or rescind them.
Also, Personally, I would draw a distinction between "The Law of God" and the law of the old testament.
Thanks for the clarification. In the Hebrew and Greek there is unity of faith and doctrine. Christ taught the Law. There is no difference in love or intent between the old and new. Same God, same morals. The modern day Jews are not, and have never been, God's Israel people as proven by the bible, history and even Jewish writings.
