Funso nali, funso limene limazunguza anthu ambiri; kodi ndi ubale wanji omwe ulipo pakati pa lamulo la Khristu ndi la muchipangano chakale?

Matthew 5:17-20 Jesus gets on a mountain and sits down to teach his disciples as the new Moses and the new law giver. Now the question that has many people wonder so much is; what is the relationship of the law of Christ to the law of the old testament? To answer that question, the beginning of verse 17 of this chapter clears our minds with what Jesus himself said. Jesus said “don’t think that I came to abolish the law or the prophets. I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.” Now, chapters 1, 2, 3, 4 of Matthew records all the accounts that took place in fulfilment of the coming of Messiah. For example, baby Jesus was taken to Egypt to fulfill what was written saying that ‘I called my son out of Egypt.’ This shows us that Jesus indeed came to fulfill what was written about him and for him and not to abolish the law and the prophets. But, was the law, the prophets and the writings given to the Jews for no good reason at all? Or was it just for them to brag that they had the law and the prophets? No! the law and the prophets were given them as a way of preparing them for the coming of messiah. So, does the law and the prophets teach us to view others lesser because they’re unable to follow the diet of the Jews? Or because they do not worship on a certain day like you do? Or that they do not keep the Sabbath according to your point of view? Jesus tells us clear that he came to save all, whether Jew or Gentile. Where do we see this? The holy spirit opens the door for Gentiles to hear and believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ and receive salvation.
