Are Christians still under the Law of Moses? Should followers of Jesus today keep Torah commandments like the Sabbath, dietary restrictions, or temple sacrifices? In this episode, we take a clear and careful look at what the Bible teaches about the Mosaic Law, its purpose, and its fulfillment in Christ. We’ll explore how the Old Covenant law reveals God’s character, why it was given to Israel, and how the New Covenant changes everything for believers today.

Whether you’ve wrestled with Torah-observant teachings or are simply curious about how law and grace fit together, this study in biblical theology will give you a solid foundation grounded in Scripture.

We’ll answer:
What does “the law” mean in the Bible?
Was the law meant for everyone?
Do Christians need to obey Old Testament commands?
How does Jesus fulfill the Law?
What role does grace play in the life of a Christian?
