"The law of Christ" () is a New Testament phrase of uncertain meaning, found only in the Pauline Epistles at Galatians 6:2〔in the accusative, "Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ."〕 and parenthetically ( "being under the law to Christ") at 1 Corinthians 9:21. The majority Christian theology, known as supersessionism, states that this either "replaces" or "completes" or "fulfills" the previous Law of Moses of the Hebrew Bible. Dual-covenant theologians are an example of a group that reject this belief. Closely related are the subjects of Christian views on the Old Covenant, early Christianity and Judaism, Paul the Apostle and Judaism, abrogation of old covenant laws, and Christian ethics. == In the Pauline epistles == In the Epistle to the Galatians, written by the Apostle Paul to a number of early Christian communities in the Roman province of Galatia in central Anatolia, he wrote: "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." (, NKJV). This could be an allusion either to the Second greatest commandment ("love thy neighbor") or the New Commandment ("love one another"). Possibly related, in a letter to the early Christians of Corinth, Greece, in the First Epistle to the Corinthians, Paul wrote: "To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law." (, NIV). It is not clear exactly what Paul means by the phrase, "the law of Christ". Although Paul mentions Biblical law several times (e.g., , , , , , , ) and preached about Ten Commandment topics such as idolatry (e.g., , , , , , , , , ), he consistently denies that salvation, or justification before God, is based on "works of the law" (e.g., ), though the meaning of this phrase is also disputed by scholars, see for example the New Perspective on Paul#Works of the Law. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Law of Christ」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
