William Branham taught that:
William Branham taught this in 1964:
 
:'''''What does Paul mean by freedom and liberty in Christ? What way is freedom from law?'''
:''Well, you’re not bound by law. Say, for instance, here’s the same thing; I’ll explain in the natural way, quickly. For instance, out here it says, go down the street, thirty miles an hour is all the faster you can go. All right now. Now if I go down the street forty miles an hour, I’m condemned by the law. But if I go down the street just thirty miles an hour, I’m not under the law. See? That’s freedom in Christ (see?), the same thing.  You’re not bound by the law as long… '''If I don’t steal, lie, smoke, commit adultery, any of those things there, I’m not bound by no law.''' See? I’m free from the law; I’m in Christ.<ref>William Branham, 64-0830M - Questions And Answers #3, para. 229-230</ref>
 
He also said this in 1963:


:''God ever says anything, He can never change it. He always magnifies it, not change it. The law was magnified, not changed. Magnified!  "'Whosoever commits adultery shall be guilty of death,' but whosoever," now magnified, "looketh upon a woman to lust after her!" He never changed the commandment. He magnified it.''<ref>63-0728, Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed</ref>
