Does God’s Moral Standard Change? November 2014

God cannot change. How, then, could Jesus have given different laws (regarding divorce, oaths, war, etc.) than God gave to Moses? This question is often used to argue that Jesus did not, in fact, teach nonresistance or some of his other ethical teachings. This issue of The Witness tackles this problem head-on, showing that although God never changes, His instructions to man can indeed change.
