How would your request relate to Mat 5:17-18?
Already answered and posted somewhere on page 1.
MATTHEW 5:17 is in reference to both the MOSIAC BOOK of the shadow laws, the prophets and the psalms as well as God's ETERNAL LAW (10 commandments) that give us the KNOWLEDGE of GOOD and EVIL; SIN and RIGHTOUESNESS in the OLD and NEW COVENANTS *ROMANS 3:20; ROMANS 7:7; 1 JOHN 3:4; PSALMS 119:172.
So when it says JESUS did not come to destroy the LAW and the prophets many actually try to do just this by trying to claim that JESUS fullfilled God's ETERNAL LAW (10 commandments) so that we do not have to. We know this is NOT true because JESUS goes on to MAGNIFY God's LAW (10 Commandments) applying the 10 commandments to our very thoughts and feelings from the INSIDE OUT. To show us that we are all sinners in need of a Saviour.
MATTHEW 5:17 is stating JESUS did not come to destroy the law and the prophets. All the SHADOW laws that pointed to JESUS as the MESSIAH are fulfilled in JESUS just as he perfectly fulfilled God's ETERNAL LAW (10 commandments) in order to be our perfect sacrifice for sin to show us God's LOVE and to bring us back to God.
God's WORD does not say JESUS fulfilled God's LAW so that we are now free to break it. God's WORD does not teach lawlessness. JESUS saves us from SIN not to to continue in sin *JOHN 8:31-36.
God bless.
