Article 25: The Fulfillment of the Law
Prev   Text File   Next

We believe
that the ceremonies and symbols of the law have ended
   with the coming of Christ,
and that all foreshadowings have come to an end,
so that the use of them ought to be abolished
   among Christians.
Yet the truth and substance of these things
remain for us in Jesus Christ,
   in whom they have been fulfilled.

Nevertheless,
we continue to use the witnesses
drawn from the law and prophets
to confirm us in the gospel
and to regulate our lives with full integrity
   for the glory of God,
according to his will.
