Sunday Sermon, February 12 -- The Old Law Has Passed Away, But New Rites Are Instituted

 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law and the Prophets."

Our Lord has fulfilled the Law in such a way that the old rites have passed away, but the moral precepts remain. The ceremonies of the Law pointed to the coming of Christ, and now that he has come these old rites are fulfilled.

This is why Catholics do not practice the rites of the Old Testament - however, we still keep new rites, new ceremonies and new feasts which correspond to the New Testament given in Christ Jesus.
