How do you like that bold type? You know when peole count the laws of Moses that is the ones he wrote down, they usually get the total of 613, right?
If you were to read, study, pray, meditate and understand by the Holy Spirit the teachings of Jesus Christ you would understand what you say.
Of the 613 laws I doubt there are even 100 that are left unfulfilled by Jesus christ, because they are moral laws included in Love. God is love.
Now, do not be like the do-nothing , grace-only hypcrites who say we do not have to obey because we love. If they knew love they would know that the remaining laws taht will never change are hanging onthe two great laws of love. If they are with love they are there to be obeyed.
Do you believe if your enmy loses a possession and you see it in the road, because you are free from the curse of the law you should steal it? If yo udo, I am afraid there is not much hope for your understandign.
The Holy Spirit teaaches us to obey God, and mynew character in Christ informs me as I act, but when I read the laws, I do see Jesus Chrsit and I do recognize what we should obey or not.
You see, Jesus explains we are to oprate the law with mercy, faith and justice.
Never say Jesus christ was under the law as so many do. Nver say tha tJesus chrsit when He was teaching the Jews how the law is to be observed now wa gving them a separate Gospel from teh one for Gentiels......that would be blasphem.
So we know now the Tën Commandments are godo, and the remainling lawsconcerning moral behavrior are godd. We know if we shold braek one law or more, we are forgiven because we live in grace, but we do not live a life of sin, that is deliberately breaking the remainling laws, jsut because we are living in grace. This would be being ingrates and unworthy of the Blood of the Lamb of God.
YOu my friend turnout to be the legalist and teh judaizer in that you have madeyourself an expert on the law and its application, which requi4res its curse.
We who are no longer children of disobedience living in darkness are now children of obedience as taughtinthe epistles, and we have come to the everlasting light that is Jesus christ.
Stop your mindless tirades agaisn any who mention being children of obedience..........this would make you agains peter and against paul.........
If a person knows that some of the law has been fulfilled and they are therefore not under the part that has been fulfilled, then they just need a fuller understanding of who Christ is and what He has done to realize that He has fulfilled ALL of the law. And therefore they are not under any of it.
You definitely don't encourage someone in their faith in Christ by telling them to follow their understanding of the law.
The sad part is that the law is supposed to bring a person to Christ. The Judaizers have it backwards thinking that Christ brings a person to the law.
