The Moral Law: Its place in Scripture and its relevance today

Salt&Light Series

by John L. MacKay

John Wesley once said, “I cannot spare the law one moment, no more than I can spare Christ…each is continually sending me to the other - the law to Christ, and Christ to the law”.
There is much confusion amongst Christians over the role of the moral law. In this excellent booklet, Professor John L Mackay shows from the Bible that the moral law still applies and is bound up with God’s glory, his nature, his salvation purposes and with the preservation of ordered life following the Fall.

A pretty good discussion of the topic. Overall Mackay handles the subject matter well. The last chapter could have been better, it ends a very thorough discussion a little flat. But, if you follow his arguments carefully, you should be able to fill in where he falls short.

[Robert Irwin]

For me Illuminates a complex and vital subject, which there is often a lot of confusion about.
