By the law of God came the knowledge of sin, the law just exposes man kinds sins.

John 15:22
If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.

Now I recall why I posted what I did earlier. Someone had posted that the "law is sin," which is an error. By knowledge of the law we know sin, but the law is good and the law is holy when understood as Jesus Christ teaches it, for knowledge of Jesus Christ removes the curse of the law from all who believe, life eternal, amen, and halleluyah.


And now I see my error, not seeing the comma. Forgive my nonsense in this regard. What I have said is true, but then, so is the title of the OP:

That's right, by the law came the knowledge of sin, that why it's called the strength of sin, because it exposes sin for what it is, exceedingly sinful. By the law and words of God the whole world becomes guilty because of sin.

Thus having our sins exposed and seeing our own nakedness in sin by the law and words of God, we see the need to be clothed upon with God's righteousness in Jesus Christ.

I wonder if there will be a ginormous wall in heaven to separate the ones here who are perfect in their own eyes so that they will not have to look upon us mere mortals who have only been saved by Gods grace

Do you suppose the angels are working on it even now?

Oh what glory there will be when us saved by grace folks see our Savior face to face

Those saved by self righteousness and finger pointing can meet for cocktails and gossip in the self congratulatory limbo of their own imaginations

And of course no one will be insulted by my post because you are all so very filled to the brim with lots of Jesus love and respect for other believers and of course how could anyone possibly offend perfection...duh

Salt of the earth? Yeah I'm thinking more like rancid butter or something

This is not why Jesus died

Since I have already been called all manner of names by some of you and lied about and mocked...I forgive you in Jesus Name..you don't know what you are doing
No one EVER goes to heaven...

Joh 13:33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

Jesus comes back to the earth...

Zec 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

and establishes the Kingdom on earth...

Dan 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Dan 2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.

Christ returns to establish the Kingdom on earth.

Finally, the Father comes down to earth at the end and lives with those who are saved...

Rev 21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
Rev 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

If you go to heaven, you will not like the company there. Christ and the Father will be here on earth.
