On Sunday, Craig turned our attention to Deuteronomy 22, a passage that, on the surface, seems archaic. God presents rules that appear to make little sense in today’s culture: do not plant two kinds of seed in your vineyard, do not plow with an ox and a donkey, and do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together. It’s important to remember, though, that modern Christians have much to learn about the character of God through His words in the Old Testament. From these commands, God reveals the importance of being set apart from our culture and following the order that God desires for the world. Each commandment of Deuteronomy 22 serves to demonstrate that God’s people are separated to maintain purity and distinction.
