The laws of the Old Testament have been replaced by the New Testament and are no longer binding


Note: This position is called dispensationalism.

Supporting arguments

This point relies on Christian doctrine.
God creates and enforces covenants, or agreements, between him and humanity. In each stage, the ultimate promise of salvation is offered through faith alone, and in each stage, mankind has failed to live up to God's expectations. [1]


This point relies on Islamic doctrine.
Allah sets down rules for each age, which apply only to each respective period. [2]

Opposing arguments

This point relies on Christian doctrine.
While there may be some truth to the most basic of ideas about Biblical covenants, most of the claims by dispensationalists are groundless. [3]
