Is the Old Testament Law—the Torah—relevant to Christians today? Many Christians don’t believe that it is. In fact, some modern teachers argue that the Mosaic Law’s expiration date was the arrival of Christ. And now that Christ died on the cross, they say that the Law is no longer in effect.

But is that really what the New Testament teaches? My guest, Dr. Richard Averbeck, challenges that perspective. In his recent book, The Old Testament Law for the Life of the Church, Dr. Averbeck makes the case that the Law of Moses remains in effect for Christians today.

In this interview, Dr. Averbeck explains how the Torah is carried into the New Covenant, the problems with dividing the law into moral, civil, and ceremonial categories, and why the Levitical sacrificial system does not contradict the Messiah’s onceforall sacrifice for sin.

I’m excited to have Dr. Averbeck with us to share his insights, and I hope this interview blesses you.
