Lesson #1 - Understanding the Bible

A Question for Diligent Students: In view of our present study this question may present itself, “Have the Ten Commandments also been replaced by New Testament laws?”

To help the student find the correct answer we direct your attention to the words of Jesus recorded in Matthew 5. There in verses 21 and 27, we find the sixth and seventh commandment introduced by these words, “You have heard that it was said by them of old time.” (see also vv. 31, 33, 38, & 43). Christ then followed by saying, “But I say unto you.”

Question? Did Christ present a new moral code, or simply repeat the old Ten Commandment code?(Put a “X” by the correct answer.) New Code _______
