    Matthew 5:17 is pretty clear about this:

    17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

    Jesus also condoned slavery by making statements like this (Old Testament law is very clear in its support of slavery), and telling people to obey their masters, all the while never once saying a single negative thing about the act of owning other human beings as property. Despite being literally constantly surrounded by slavery.
