I for one am glad Christians outlawed human sacrifice and forced unregenerate people to behave more morally.
In fact, I think it was actually obedient to the second greatest commandment (and the first).
The New Covenant does not relax the Law.
It ends old covenant ceremonies and replaces them with New Covenant ceremonies.
โDo not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments,
and teaches men so,
shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven;
but whoever does and teaches them,
he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.โ

All who believe the Gospel are saved.
Belief apart from works.
Belief with no works.
Belief on the Works of Jesus.
Belief is not works.
Belief is a gift of grace.
Belief is impossible apart from grace.
Belief yields works, but this is a promise and not a condition of true belief.
This is not easy-believism.
Itโs impossible-to-believe-ism, apart from grace.
Jesus Christ is risen.
He died for the sins of His people.
All who believe Him are saved.
Repent of your sin and Believe the Gospel.
Go to church, learn, and apply the Word.
We are living through a total abandonment of biblical fidelity across the spectrum of churches.
God have mercy upon us.
Visit Puritan Reformed in Phoenix.
God help us not to bend or break.

Major news out of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, the influential 9500-member Calvary Chapel church (CC) founded by Chuck Smith.
Pastor Char Broderson, grandson of Chuck Smith, announced on Sunday their intent to begin ordaining women pastors, in direct opposition to CC's distinctives.
A statement from the Calvary Chapel Association Heartland Regional Team describes these actions as "deeply grievous" and a departure from "from important convictions Pastor Chuck faithfully taught and modeled."
"As a regional team, we have serious concerns about the direction Costa Mesa has taken...Although disagreement over these doctrines does not, in itself, determine a personโs salvation, these are consequential matters of biblical interpretation, church order, and pastoral faithfulness.
We do NOT affirm the ordination of women as elders or pastors as biblically sound or consistent with the Calvary Chapel distinctives upheld by the Calvary Chapel Association."
Escondido guys in the timeline again.
Good time for a reminder that Law/Gospel distinction has important uses but is not a good totalizing hermeneutic.
