After reading this thread several times and reading elsewhere about this it seems to me that both "sides" believe the other to be "against the law",ie,antinomian.It is crystal clear to me that this is nonsense <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.
Neither school of thought is against The Law as should be obvious from what has been posted here .

We should all take the time to read more carefully.

And before any start wingeing-that applies to me too <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Mark,

That's just plain hogwash! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/rofl.gif" alt="" /> It is YOU and Mr. Potts who have consistently stated that the moral law has been abrogated as to believers. Countless times it has been written by you two that "we are dead to the law", i.e., believers have nothing to do with the moral law of God and the law has nothing to do with the believer. It has been said that we are to "walk by faith", meaning by the inner leading and guiding of the Spirit APART from any relationship to the moral law of God whatsoever.

On the other hand, all the rest of us, less Carol and perhaps some who have been silent and lurking in the background, have stated countless times that the moral law of God is the very expression of God's nature; immutable, perpetual and binding upon all men everywhere for all time until Christ returns. It's application/relation to men, however, differs depending upon whether or not they are in Christ. Now, if you haven't been able to grasp the clear differences between what Antinomians teach and what the historic churches, the Reformed churches in particular, then I suggest YOU do some more careful reading. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

In His GRACE,
