people were neither fully Hebrews nor fully Gentiles.

● Moral law revealed by Christ in the New Testament (the new law)-
The two great commandments that contain the whole law of God are:

thy whole mind, and with thy whole strength;
2.Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.

2.To instruct the ignorant.
3.To counsel the doubtful.
4.To comfort the sorrowful.
5.To bear wrongs patiently.
6.To forgive all injuries.
7.To pray for the living and the dead.

2.Confession of serious sin at least once a year
