Let's examine the law of Christ
The law of Christ is explicitly found in Paul *********** [Galatians 6:2 KJV] "Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ." ******** Paul will go on to say it is doing good to all ********* [Galatians 6:10 KJV] "As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all [men], especially unto them who are of the household of faith." *********** The Mosaic law is fulfilled by love *********** [Romans 13:8 KJV] "Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law."
The law of Christ was manifested by the Lord Jesus Christ ********** [John 13:34 KJV] "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another." ********** Jesus expressed the Mosaic found fulfillment by love ********* [Matthew 22:37 KJV] "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."
[Matthew 22:38 KJV] "This is the first and great commandment."
[Matthew 22:39 KJV] "And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."
[Matthew 22:40 KJV] "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." *********** The essence of the law of Christ can be found in the sermon on the mount *********** [Matthew 5:7 KJV] "Blessed [are] the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy."
[Matthew 5:44 KJV] "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;"
[Matthew 7:1 KJV] "Judge not, that ye be not judged."
[Matthew 7:2 KJV] "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."
[Matthew 7:12 KJV] "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets." ************ The tenants of the law of Christ can indeed be found in the sermon on the mount, but it didn't nullify the Mosaic law.
Jesus included keeping the Mosaic law in the sermon on the mount************ [Matthew 5:18 KJV] "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
[Matthew 5:19 KJV] "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."
