The Law was Not Superceded by the Christian Dispensation.
I come not to destroy but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, till
heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass
from the law till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break
one of these least commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be
called the least in the kingdom of heaven. (Mat. 5 : 17, 18, 19.)
Christ's Mission was Peace.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly
host praising God and saying, Glory to God In the highest, and on
earth peace, good will toward men. (Luke 2 : 13, 14.)
And thou, child, shall be called the Prophet of the Highest.... To
guide our feet into the way of peace. (Luke 1 : 76, 79.)
