Old Testament Law & the Christian

Published: Aug. 28, 2020, 11 p.m.

One of the great objections to Christianity in the public square is the "West Wing" attack.  In that old TV show, Martin Sheen, playing the president, challenged a moralizing Christian (played rather uncharitably, of course) to live according to Old Testament.  As it went, the argument seeks to invalidate Christian objections to sinful issues of modern life by claiming that since Christians aren't following everything the Bible says in Leviticus they're being contradictory.  

Are they?  The answer is a clear no.  God's moral law has not, nor will it ever change.  The civil and ceremonial laws of the Old Testament, however, are another issue that needs to be properly understood in light of the cross of Christ.  So, if this objection has stumped you in the past, or it's an area you haven't considered much, this podcast is a must as it clears up the needless confusion.
