God's Love Post

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you

shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit,

and the Spirit against the flesh; and

these are contrary to one another,

so that you do not do the things

that you wish.

But if you are led by the Spirit,

you are not under the law.

(Galatians 5.16-18).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom,

and his tongue talks of justice.

The law of the Lord is in his heart; none of

his steps shall slide.

Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact,

sin is lawlessness.

But you know that He appeared so that

He might take away our sins.

And in Him is no sin. No one who lives

in Him keeps on sinning.

No one who continues to sin has either

seen Him or known Him.

(I.John 3.4-6).

“The time is coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will make a new covenant

with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah. It will not be like the

covenant I made with their forefathers when I took them by the hand to

lead them out of Egypt, because they broke My covenant though I was a

husband to them.” declares the Lord.

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those

who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus

the law of the Spirit  of life set me free from the law of sin and death.

(Romans 8. 1 & 2).

Jesus Christ fulfilled the Law and its righteous requirements.

He is also the fulfillment of all the types presented in the Law

which pointed to Him. The Temple, the High Priest, the high

holy days, the sacrifices and offerings all pointed to Him and

culminated in Him. In Him the purpose of the Law, the end

which it was designed to accomplish is fulfilled.

The law was designed as the means of right relationship to God for

Law, Religion and Grace

WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? THAT THE LAW ITSELF IS SIN?

GOD FORBID!

(Romans 7.7 a).

Barth discusses the MEANING  OF RELIGION as it relates

under grace.

Here at this turning-point grace and law-religion-

the first invisibility and the last visible thing,

confront each other.

Grace is the freedom of … Continue Reading
