Apparently sin and death is now written on our hearts and minds as New Covenant believers (Hebrews 8:8-10, Hebrews 10:16, Romans 8:7, Romans 8:4, 1 John 5:3, 2 John 1:6, Romans 13:8-10; Romans 5:5; 1 John 2:3-6).
The law of liberty, or, the ten commandments (James 2:11-12) is something that, if we look into it and continue in it, we will be blessed in what we do (James 1:25).
The law, therefore, for those who have been justified through faith in the blood of Christ and know it, is no longer a condemning taskmaster but is a set of wisdom principles that we can live by and be blessed in the doing of them; as long as we do not think that we are justified in the keeping of them (see Galatians 3:10, James 2:10, Matthew 5:48; compare Galatians 5:1-4)..
the
law of liberty isn’t the Ten Commandments
it’s the law of mercy that Jesus taught
“So speak ye, and so do, as
they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.”
James 2:12-13 KJV
that’s has nothing to do with the Ten Commandments it is mercy for the merciful and no mercy for the unmerciful
If you try to be judged by the Ten Commandments you’d be here
“For
whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.”
James 2:10-11 KJV
that’s why we have to let Jesus be the judge this is the law of liberty
“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him,
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.”
John 8:31-32 KJV
James is saying to act as if your going to be judged by this law
“
Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall be given into your bosom.
For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”
Luke 6:36-38 KJV
the Ten Commandments nor moses said anything like that James is saying it though
“So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be
judged by the law of liberty. For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and
mercy rejoiceth against judgment.”
James 2:12-13 KJV
The law makes us guilty Jesus is about repentance and remission of sins that’s why we don’t want Moses judging us by his law
“Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father:
there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.”
John 5:45 KJV
but as Christians know Jesus word is our judgement
“
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him:
the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.”
John 12:48-50 KJV
we understand completely who’s the judge and who’s words were going to be judged by
“And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to
testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.”
Acts 10:42 KJV
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but
now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because
he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.”
Acts 17:30-31 KJV
It’s by the gospel and what Christ said were to be judged by we can reject it or accept it
“Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
John 5:24 KJV
said the judge of all
Moses isn’t oir jidge by his law he’s an accuser and the commandment have already proved we’re all sinners
“But
the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.”
Galatians 3:22 KJV
it’s almost like you didn’t hear that the messiah was going to come and deliver Gods true word and law try studying Isaiah for a bit
