When was the whole system of the Law done away with and abolished?
The whole system of the Law was done away with and abolished when Christ finished the work of redemption through His death, burial, and resurrection. At that point the Law’s purpose for Israel was complete, and God provided something far better: salvation by faith because of His grace, with nothing added.
Les teaches that the veil was not taken away in the reading of the Old Testament, but it is done away in Christ. When Christ finished the work of redemption by His death, burial, and resurrection, the whole system of Law was done away with and abolished, because now there is something far better. The Law had been given to Israel to prepare them for the coming of their Messiah, but in unbelief they failed it from start to finish. God did not stop His plan of redemption; He carried it out anyway. Christ died, rose from the dead, and revealed to the Apostle Paul the new concept of salvation by faith because of God’s grace, and nothing added.
But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ.
