(Christians may do these things in a "spiritual" sense and changing the approach to dealing with justice, but reality is that these laws are for the land of Israel and the times before Christ explained proper Justice and Mercy.) CHRISTIAN DO meditate on these verses, OLD and NEW. Gain better ground at the righteousness in Judgement of the Lord.
