@BohemianBabe What? You said people don't live by biblical perfect standards and I said a doctrine that helps explain that.

@BritishFailedAesthetic You said there was law-gospel distinction. How does that explain why Christians have premarital sex?

@BritishFailedAesthetic Is this that thing where we pretend Jesus didn't say the Old Testament laws still stand?

@BohemianBabe I refer you back to the article and with regards to OT rituals- Jesus said he came to fulfill it.

@BritishFailedAesthetic He also said he didn't come to change the laws. He said the ancient Israelite laws still apply.
@BohemianBabe But that he fulfilled them.

@BritishFailedAesthetic Sure, but that doesn't mean Christians aren't required to continue following the rules of the Old Testament. Also, like I said, Christians don't follow the rules of the Old Testament either.
