Christians have been enlightened about the word of God.
This enlightenment was provided by Apostle Anthony Fasipe during a sermon at Pavilion of Faith Global Church GRA Ikeja.
Apostle Fasipe who put scriptures side by side after reading from the Book of Genesis 17:1-14 and Galatians 3:23-25 where God told Abraham to circumcise every member of his family as a covenant between him and God. This according to the bible was the ordinance put in place when Christ was yet to come, but the coming of Christ indicates that we have been bailed out by grace and we are no longer under the law.
The man of God in his preaching used the above scriptures to cleared the air about argument among Christians on whether or not the Laws of Moses are to be highly regarded by Christians today.
He however told the congregation that the laws of Moses are not the determinant of salvation for Christians, saying that, the law was only to usher us to Christ the Messiah who was to come.
According to him, in the book of Galatians 3:23-25, John1:17 Acts 15:1-11, the coming of Christ with grace has reminded us Christians of today that, salvation is by grace through faith and not by ordinances.
