The 10 Commandments...The Laws

"Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them. For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:17-20

Here in America, there has been a fight on posting the "10 Commandments" in public. Many believers, as well as non-believers are trying to say that we are not bound by those laws anymore and they need not be posted. Some say that we shouldn't post them since they are religious in nature, they offend those who do not follow the religions that tend to believe the laws are worthy of display.

Since most of you who read this come from a Christian background...I wonder how you feel about this particular subject. Not only about "posting the commandments" but what do you feel about all the "laws"? As you know, there are hundreds of them written in the Old Testament. Are they relevant? Do we need to follow them, ignore them, use them as a guideline? What did Jesus mean for those who follow Him?

Let us know what you think. What you believe. What you struggle with...Post your thoughts and hopefully, we can help each other as we walk through this.
