I have hit a little bit here and there throughout this series about the fact that when God made His commands, they were for all. Not just a certain people. Not just for a certain time period. Not just for a certain covenant.

I know there is a still a mindset out there that "there is a list of rules for the 'Jews', and those rules don't apply to the 'Gentiles'". I even came across a social media post recently that kept pushing this mindset, and stating the 'Gentiles' rules were the Noahide Laws. Something I haven't covered yet, but probably will before this series is over.

But let's just look at the concept of two different sets of rules for two different sets of people. A key thing to keep in mind is what I am pointing out in the comic. Does that sound like a loving Father? To have a harsher set of rules for their first children, but those they adopt later don't have to abide by those rules?

Many will say things of "no Gentiles had to keep the Law".
What about the people before there were Israelites that kept the Law? Specifically Abraham, whom it is said kept all of God's judgements, commands, and statutes? What standard do they think God was holding places like Sodom and Gomorrah, or Ninevah to? The former didn't repent and were destroyed. The later did repent and realize their ways were wicked and changed. What did they change to? What standard did they now follow that God spared them?

When we look through all the other prophets, when the call comes to repent, its to come back to doing God's Law.

Ecclesiastes 12:13 - Fear God and keep His commandments, this is the duty of ALL mankind.
