Exodus 21:20-22:15 - God’s Laws on Loving Your Neighbor

In our study today, Pastor Kevin expounds on laws governing a variety of situations likely to occur in ancient Israel, including: physical altercations between people resulting in injury or death; relationships between masters and their slaves; injuries to or caused by one’s animals; theft; and misuse of another’s property. While the skeptic mocks the Bible, Pastor Kevin explains how these laws executed a system of justice that was far more fair, compassionate, and fiscally responsible than our own. We also see how Jesus raised the Mosaic Law to an even higher plane to emphasize that keeping God’s law is not about outward compliance only, but the heart. No one can keep the Law perfectly. We praise God the Father for so loving us that He sent His Son, Jesus, to die for the sins of the world so that by believing we can have life in His Name.
Maranatha!
