IMO culture is a way of life, its inbuilt in the society while law is the rules and regulation made to govern the people in the society

bro was it not law that become culture?

I quite understand your confussn especially as in relate to conflicting cultures/traditions with Christianity and the bible.
few weeks ago, i opened a thread asking a questn abt one of those conflicting topics..www.nairaland.com/1923307/it-sin-drop-once-offering

Law is the moral standard of a people.
The point is, Jesus Christ didnt come to erase our culture, law and traditions as stated in Mattew...but to set standards for it.
Culture and traditions are good but whatever is good but doesnt find root from the bible or against what the bible teaches, such is wrong and every Christians should reject it...if you check such culture very well, they re rooted in idolatary and immorality.

This is a wake up call to all Christians to make the bible our doctrine and culture and not to use the culture and tradition to rewrite the bible.

but most time we allow our culture to rule even in the house of God....

but most time we allow our culture to rule even in the house of God....

that when our individual believe system calls to question...are we going to do something because itz done in our churches or because it is written in the bible or bible based in short?...the church may be compromising the bible's standard but you have to decide u wont!

Culture and pagan traditions are ruling the christendom. The church was founded on heathen tradition.

Christianity is totally different from law and custom, cause the bible is its standard, a custom could change or be expunged for being repugnant just as laws are repealed but the bible remain constant.

there is however a meeting point between the 3 and that has to do with morality, some moral norms in the bible are preserve in our laws though there is sanction by the state for breeching them, eg. thou shall not kill, the state law on killing supersede that of culture and religion.
