How do we know the law of God is still relevant for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

The law of God remains relevant and binding for Christians as it reflects God's eternal holiness and moral standard (Matthew 5:18).

Jesus affirmed the ongoing relevance of the law in Matthew 5:18, stating that it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single tittle of the law to fail. This underscores the dignity and sanctity of God's law, emphasizing that its moral principles are perpetual and not merely historical or ceremonial. The moral law serves multiple purposes: it reveals God's holiness, illustrates human sinfulness, and directs believers in living a life that pleases God. Therefore, Christians are not exempt from the law; instead, they are to uphold its moral standards, viewing it as a divine guide for holy living.
