Hi Friends,
It is important to believe all of God's Word because that is where life to the believer comes from (Matt 4:4). Salvation is from sin and not in sin. If your faith leads to a life of known unrepentant sin you have not been born again and do not know Jesus and do not have the faith of the Word of God (James 2:20).
The Gospel is not Jesus calling the righteous but sinners to repentance (Matt 9:13). Whosoever commits sin is a servant of sin and if the son shall make you free you shall be free indeed because (John 8:34-36) and is the reason Jesus says, Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. (John 3:7) because whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. (1John 3:9). Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God (Luke 8:11).
It is only by faith in God's Word that we have salvation from sin and Jesus says; If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free from sin (John 8:31-36). For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God (Eph 2:8). Only sinners that need a Savior have salvation because the sinner knows he cannot save himself (Matt 9:13; John 15:5). We are not saved by God's Law (Romans 3:20). God's Law gives us a knowledge of sin and brings us to Jesus so we can be saved (1John 3:4; Rom 3:30; Rom 7:7; Gal 3:24).
There is no Gospel without God's Law because there is no knowledge of sin. If there is no knowledge of sin there is no need of a Savior. If there is no need of a Savior there is no salvation. If there is no salvation you are lost and without hope and the scripture is fulfilled For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law (Romans 2:12). Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law (Romans 3:31).
Now its time for an intermission and the reason why we love him..

We love him because he first loved us (1John 4:19). Love is the fulfilling of God's Law in us who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit (Romans 13:9-10; Roman 8:4).. Jesus says if you love me keep my commandments... (John 14:15) If you are not you are not following God and do not have the love of God in you (1John 2:3-4; 1John 3:6-10) All I can say is that I love Jesus and wish you all only love, joy and peace in the Holy Ghost who God gives to those that obey him through faith (Acts 5:32)
In Christ Always!
