The people of Israel made their own laws out of God's law, which unfortunately became rigid regulations in some cases. Jesus did not abolish the law of God but rather gave it back its original vitality and dynamism.

“Would you like some? Just take a bite.” You have to say that a Jehovah's Witness and hold a black pudding in front of his nose. He won't touch this delicacy. Why? Because the Law of Moses does not allow it. They all insist on it, but this rule is no longer valid. Jesus abolished it when he said, “Man may eat anything.” You should pay attention to the words you spit out, whether written or spoken (Mark 7). This is what matters in the world! On the day of divine judgment, man will be justified by his words and condemned by his words (Matthew 12). Therefore, a Christian does not need to abstain from blood sausage. This food, like all food, should be received with gratitude.

Through faith in Jesus, a person comes to true life and is justified before God. And no law is imposed on such a righteous person (1 Timothy 1). Alcoholic drinks are not generally forbidden for Christians. Jesus recommended drinking a little wine; after all, he also made wine from water. But God takes no pleasure in comrades who get drunk. Alcohol has always been a highly dangerous drug, and every ten seconds, a person in this world dies as a result of alcohol consumption. As with many things, the same applies to alcohol: the dose makes the poison.

The trick of teachers of the law is to keep people from the way of life that makes true happiness possible. Doesn't love fulfill the law? Jesus spoke of two commandments that are attached to the entire law (Luke 10).

To love God above all else.

To love your neighbor as yourself.

Strict scholars try to force others under the law of Moses so that they remain slaves to the law. Jesus, however, freed people from this curse with his death. Those who submit to the law must expect to be accused of double standards; they will not succeed in keeping all the laws. Jesus was the only one who managed to do this—he fulfilled the law because he never disobeyed God. Yes, love fulfills the law!
