To add to David's post... Lev. 19 begins with Be Holy, because I AM Holy. Then it tells you how to BE holy. It goes through chapter 20 and ends with....Be Holy, because I AM holy. Interesting.

For example, I understand Levitical law to be more than just ceremonial law. You seem to see it differently. You wrote: Judy wrote: > The Levitical or Ceremonial law is what Christ fulfilled but > God's moral standard or moral law still stands and this is > what we are judged by in the Last Day. I consider the following part of the Levitical law: Leviticus 19:17-18 (17) Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him. (18) Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD. These commandments are moral, aren't they? The biggest problem I have about this idea of differentiating "moral" law from "ceremonial" law is the fourth commandment, keep the seventh day sabbath. Is this law "ceremonial" or "moral"? Maybe you can answer this first. I'm out of time right now anyway. Peace be with you.
