The believer is NOT FREE TO BREAK THE LAW! The believer is not free to break the Law of the Lord. The law of the Lord is good if it is used correctly, the way it was designed to be used. Grace gives you no right to break the law. Anyone who teaches this is not telling the truth. Jesus did not come to do away with the law, he came to fulfill it. So if he came to fulfill the law, and we are to follow him, let us also fulfill the law.
Now, how did Jesus fulfill the law? Ahh! He fulfilled every law perfectly, even the prophets. But there was something more that Jesus knew. He knew that the key to keeping the law is love. He did not come to do away with the law, he came to establish it forever. His labor was not a labor of law, but of love. If we could keep these simple commands, to love the Lord our God with all our heart mind and soul, and our neighbors as ourselves, then we would not have needed grace. However no one has. So, by keeping the law no one can be saved. Yet, after you have become a believer, and understand the law, you are not free to break it. I am saying, the law you understand, keep it, and anything done in doubt is sin.
If you doubt whether something is allowed or not, then consider it not allowed. I will tell you something better. If you think something is not allowed consider if it keeps those two commands, then you will have peace. The Lord is not blind. He can see the way you reason your way into sin. But it was written to MAKE NO PROVISION FOR THE FLESH TO FULFILL THE LUSTS THEREOF. God is not mocked, whatever you sow you will reap. If you sow wickedness you will reap it, if you sow righteousness you will reap the reward of righteousness.
Keep the Law of Love, regardless of popular opinion.
