PART XIV.

_THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH._

SECTION LXXXIV. _The Ritual Law is unrepealed._—Christ so left it. The apostles were zealous for it. The council of Jerusalem exempted the Gentiles only. James and Paul unite to show it still in force. Paul’s practice. He obeyed the law, but repudiated its righteousness. This view alone harmonizes the history, 393

SECTION LXXXV. _Why the Gentiles were exempted._—Not because the law expired. But, unsuited to a world wide extension. Its chief end accomplished. What its survival implied, 406

SECTION LXXXVI. _The Christian Passover._—Wine, and blood. The passover a type of Christ’s atonement. It is perpetuated in the Supper, 408

SECTION LXXXVII. _The Hebrew Christian Church._—The synagogue system. The sects of Pharisees, Sadducees and Nazarenes. The number and diffusion of the Nazarenes. The Hebrew church after the destruction of Jerusalem, 411

SECTION LXXXVIII. _The Gentiles Graffed in._—Mixed churches. Gentile churches. “Out of Zion the law.” The Gentiles graffed in, 418
