what Law did Jesus replace?


CHRIST REPLACED THE SACRIFICIAL LAWS

As stated the Sacrificial Laws were done away with as a result of the crucifixion of Jesus. Jesus replaced the Levitical priesthood and it was these priest who preformed the rites under the Sacrificial Laws.

Jesus became our high priest.

Hebrews (8:1) Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the havens.

The Levitical priest could not continue on behalf of man because they were subject to death and there their intercession stopped.

Hebrews (7:22)
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better
testament.

(23)
And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
But Jesus priesthood is everlasting and He continues to make intercession on behalf of man.

Hebrews (7:24)
But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

(25)
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Jesus by the offering of Himself once did that which the Levitical priesthood could not do although they continuously offered up sacrifices.

Hebrews (7:26)
For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

(27)
Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.

Ministers teach that the church operates under grace and is no longer subject to the Mosaic Laws because they were done away with when Jesus nailed them to the cross. The following verses are often cited by ministers to support this concept.

Romans (6:14) For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Colossians (2:14) Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

The above verses due state that we are no longer under the law and that Jesus nailed them to His cross.

But the question one needs to ask is what are the laws that we are no longer under because Jesus nailed them to His cross?

An individual will find that they have erred if they accept the position that the Mosaic Law was done away with based on these verses.

In studying the scriptures one will find that Paul was not referring to the Mosaic Laws as being the ones we are no longer under but instead was speaking of a different set of laws the Sacrificial Laws.
Jesus killed the Animal sacrifice laws. Daniel 9:26-27 clearly states it if you believe that jesus is the Messiah.
I know you understand Brother, because you are taught well and is from God.

its these so -called christians that don't understand.

the churches of today teach that the law is done away with, yet they refuse to tell the people

which law?

maybe some of these preachers, pastors, chaplins, care to respond.
So-called is right considering the first Christians were Jews.....

The real Jews from Judah.. They may have been from either the Tribe of Judah, Benjamin, or Levi, but none the less they were all Jews because their country was called Judah. Not because of Judiasm. That comes from Edom, who got it from the Hassmonian peoples who conquered Idumea, and they mingled it with the worship of the God of Israel, and they did not believe Jesus was the Messiah... Sorry to draw that all out like that..... I know you have this understanding Brother. I am stuck teaching the Law because no one will keep it. I can't move on until they learn to keep the law.
