Romans 4:15

15 Because [gar] the law [nomos] worketh [katergazomai] wrath [orge]: for [gar] where [hou] no [ou] law [nomos] is [esti], there is no [oude] transgression [parabasis].   KJV-Interlinear

 

15 For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression.   ESV

Continued from previous page.



Now the clock races forward, and man makes lots of laws and rules and regulations. God places in front of us the rules of righteousness, which is presented in the Mosaic Law. All of the thou-shalt-nots and so forth.

Mans laws demonstrate that man will always violate the law in one way or another. And that man can come up with some pretty worthless and unfair laws. Even laws designed to regulate humanity itself. Even those laws violate themselves.

Gods rules demonstrate that all of humanity will not only violate the rules of righteousness, but that no one is capable of living by them.

If you have written rules and know of them then you are all the more bound by them.

Even the uneducated world, that lacks written rules, has the laws of nature and/or common sense, which they recognize and lived by. And this has been true for many centuries especially in ancient times.

Then there are the jungle laws where you are either big or strong or quick or dead. Predator or prey, makes no difference, because those laws get you sooner or later.

But the whole point to all of this is, that if you choose to live by a law, then you are susceptible to its punishments. And the law of works, has a punishment that causes you to lose everything.

On the other hand, if you choose the law of Christ, which is grace through faith, then there is no violation, no condemnation, no eternal loss, because those penalties have already been paid for in full and no longer apply. You are exempt from the law of works, by adhering to faith. And as Paul states, no law means no violation.

Therefore, believing in Christ cancels the law in your life, which also cancels eternal condemnation, which means eternal security.

Now, you can believe in Christ and be saved and then in your stupidity turn back to works for your spiritual growth, but guess what? The law of works in spirituality means no benefit, because works are rejected in Gods plan for the spiritual life.

Grace applies across the spectrum of the spiritual life. You have to be consistent, and cannot flip-flop back and forth, from faith to works, and expect anything from that pattern of life.
