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 5:18
"There is no abrogation of it, nor amendment of it.
It is not to be toned down or adjusted to our fallen condition; but every one of the Lord’s righteous judgments abideth for ever.
Jesus did not come to change the law, but He came to explain it, --and that very fact shows that it remains,
--for there is no need to explain that which is abrogated.
The law of God is no more than God might most righteously ask of us. If God were about to give us a more tolerant law, it would be an admission on his part that he asked too much at first.
Which law is it that God has exempted you from?
That law of worshipping him only?
Do you propose to have another God?
Do you intend to make graven images?
The fact is that when we come to detail we cannot afford to lose a single link of this wonderful golden chain, which is perfect in every part as well as perfect as a whole.
The law is absolutely complete, and you can neither add to it nor take from it."
Charles Spurgeon
