BUT UNDER GRACE
By Robert E. Hanna
Scripture Reading: Romans
6:12-13
Moses spoke to God's
chosen people Israel as the giver of His [God's] law: "Now
therefore hearken, 0 Israel, unto the statutes and unto the
judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and
go in and possess the land which the Lord of your fathers giveth
you. Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither
shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments
of the Lord your God which I command you" (Deuteronomy 4:1, 2).
But Paul spoketo the
members of Christ's Body as the revelator of the Gospel of the Grace
of God: "Sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not
under the law, BUT UNDER GRACE." Does God contradict Himself?
Paul explains: "Before faith came, we were kept under the law,
shut up unto the faith which should afterward be revealed. Wherefore
the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might
be justified by faith. But after that faith has come, we are no
longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by
faith in Christ Jesus" (Galatians 3:23-26).
To fully understand our
position-our standing before God today-we must realize what Christ
accomplished at Calvary. He had declared, while yet ministering on
earth, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the
prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil" (Matthew
5:17). For the law to be fulfilled, it was necessary that God be
given full satisfaction, and Christ alone could accomplish this.
Christ died on the cross of Calvary as the perfect Lamb of God.
"Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one
that believeth" (Romans 10:4).
There
is only way to be SAVED 1. Corinthian 15;1 - 4 Christ died for our
sins was buried and rose again the third day. Believe this from you
heart and you will have eternal life.
