SUNDAY LAWS
The Gospel for Both Dispensations
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from theFather of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. James 1:17.
Since the fall of Adam, it has been the fashion of the world to sin, and it is
for ourinterest to know what sin is. John declares: "Whosoever committeth
sin transgresseth alsothe law: for sin is the transgression of the law."
1 John 3:4.
God's purpose is . . . to save from sin. . . . The soul, corrupted and deformed,
is to bepurified, transformed.
Through the gospel, souls that are degraded and enslaved by Satan are to be
redeemed to share the glorious liberty of the sons of God. The gospel is the
power and wisdom of God.
Christ had been sent to earth to represent God in character. . . . He Himself
was the gospel.
Many who claim to believe and to teach the gospel . . . set aside the Old TestamentScriptures, of which Christ declared, "They are they which testify of me." John 5:39. Inrejecting the Old, they virtually reject the New; for both are parts of an inseparable whole.No man can rightly present the law of God without the gospel, or the gospel without thelaw. The law is the gospel embodied, and the gospel is the law unfolded. The law is theroot, the gospel is the fragrant blossom and fruit which it bears.
He who proclaimed the law from Sinai, and delivered to Moses the precepts of theritual law, is the same that spoke the sermon on the mount. . . .The teacher is the same inboth dispensations. God's claims are the same. The principles of His government are thesame. For all proceed from Him "with whom is no variableness, neither shadow ofturning."
The gospel of the New Testament is not the Old Testament standard lowered to meetthe sinner and save him in his sins. God requires of all His subjects obedience, entireobedience to all His commandments. The faith I live By, Page 88. Ellen G White.
