Fulfilling the Law

from NoDa Church · host Ryan Russell

"Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven." I thought Jesus abolished the law? Does this mean we have to earn our salvation? Didn't Jesus die for my sins so that I didn't have to follow the law? Or, is Jesus driving at something completely different all together?  The Christian journey is one of answering the call to "follow Jesus." There is nothing you can do to earn your way into God's Kingdom, but Jesus calls you to leave everything behind in order to find true life in him. Following Jesus costs you nothing but requires everything. In this episode we will explore what the calling of Christ requires of us and what Jesus is addressing in the Sermon on the Mount regarding our following the law.
