JESUS IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD WRAPPED IN FLESH
So many people think that they know what you are about to say and they stop listening to what you are actually saying.
When people hear me say that we are not under THE LAW, BUT UNDER GRACE, they think I believe that I can do what I want to such as steal, commit adultery, or lie and God will be okay with me doing it. Now to me, this just sounds plain foolish, but they do think that. They take what they hear and blow it way out of context. It sounds foolish to think a Christian would still want to do these things.
When I teach about The Law, first of all, I say, The
Law Is From God, Who Is Holy, So That Makes Everything Of Him Holy.
Romans 7:12
Wherefore The Law Is Holy, And The Commandment Holy, And Just, And Good.
The Law is impossible for a sinful man to keep,
Because Of The Flesh.
Romans 8:3
For What The Law Could Not Do, In That It Was Weak Through The Flesh, GOD SENDING HIS OWN SON IN THE LIKENESS OF SINFUL FLESH, AND FOR SIN, CONDEMNED SIN IN THE FLESH:
There Is Where Jesus Christ Comes In. We Could Not Keep The Law So God Sent His Son In The Flesh To Live The Law, For Us. Instead of trying to keep The Law myself, I trust that Jesus Christ did it for me. He Is The Only One Born Of A Woman That Can. HE CAN BECAUSE HE IS ALSO BORN OF GOD, BECAUSE HE IS OF GOD, AND BECAUSE HE IS GOD. If Jesus were just born of Mary and another human man, Jesus would not have been Born Of Holy Blood. JESUS IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD WRAPPED IN FLESH. The Law must be kept, by your works, or by Faith in Christ Jesus, and His Finished Work.
I will tell you right now that you will never be able to keep The Law Perfectly, Faith Is The Only Sure Way To Be Saved from The Wrath Of God. I will also tell you The Law is something The Holy Spirit keeps in your heart through Faith In Christ Jesus And His Sacrifice. What I mean is, when you understand just a small amount of what Jesus Christ went through to Sacrifice Himself for your sins, you will also understand the last thing on your mind is to commit something He died to save you from. Jesus Christ Was Tortured, He Bled, He Died, And He Went Into Hell, for our lying, our adulteries, and our thieving. Why would we want to keep on doing these things after knowing this about our Lord? Because I believe Jesus kept The Law Perfectly for me does not mean I am desiring to continue living in the sinful flesh. I died to my flesh when I believed Jesus Christ died for me.
Galatians 2:20-21
I Am Crucified With Christ: Nevertheless I Live; Yet Not I, But Christ Liveth In Me: And THE LIFE WHICH I NOW LIVE IN THE FLESH I LIVE BY THE FAITH OF THE SON OF GOD, WHO LOVED ME, AND GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME. I Do Not Frustrate The Grace Of God: For If Righteousness Come By The Law, Then Christ Is Dead In Vain.
Galatians 5:24
And They That Are Christ's Have Crucified The Flesh With The Affections And Lusts.
