As the Church continues growing, they are certainly taking a step away from the rule of the Law as the Jewish people had long been accustomed to doing. Of course, this was on purpose. Paul talks often about law vs. life in the Spirit. So if the rules that were sent around didn’t even equal the Ten Commandments, how did people learn how to be Christians? The answer to that is discipleship. Paul, Barnabas, Silas and Barsabbas were just a few of those who traveled in person not only to help plant new churches, but to stay long enough to get to know the people and help them learn better how to follow Jesus. This connected new believers directly to the people taught by Jesus, and the chain has remained unbroken ever since.
