Rich Young Ruler- kept the "Ceremonial" law to Enter into Life
Pork in SDA HOSPITALS. "Thinking has evolved." But has the law of God evolved?
SDA'S teach that the Rich Young Ruler kept the moral law and that it was not enough. Then they teach that Jesus gave him a law of love instead. However a deeper look demonstrates that Jesus told the Rich Young Ruler if he would enter into life he would keep the law found in Deuteronomy. Aka the so called ceremonial law.
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. Matthew 19:17, 21 KJV http://bible.com/1/mat.19.17-21.KJV
Where did jesus get the law he told this guy?
When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled; Then thou shalt say before the Lord thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them: Deuteronomy 26:12-13 KJV http://bible.com/1/deu.26.12-13.KJV
