The Law
You shall have no other Gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol.You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.Observe the sabbath and keep it holy.Honor your Father and your Mother.You shall not murder.You shall not commit adultry.You shall not steal.You shall not give false testimony.You shall not covet.
Look these over carefully,because this is the standard we should strive to live by.Some might tell you the ten commandments no longer mean anything, Jesus did away with them. Jesus himself said he did not come to do away with one bit of the law however. True you shall be judged by your faith,not the law. How than shall we live? Shall we cleave to our worldly desires,hold true to the temptations of the flesh,or shall we live to glorify God?
Without the law none would be sinners,none would need a savior.
God is loving and understanding true,but he is also just and righteous He can't just ignore sin,it's against His nature
I've heard arguements that God doesn't exist ,because God can do anything and if God can do anything then he can create a mountain so big,even he is unable to move it. Therefore if He can do that then he can't do everything so therefore God can't be. I know,logic without the use of logic. Doesn't make sense to me either. What we have to do is realize God can't do everything. God can't go against his own nature,God can't lie,so to say God can do everything is abstract unreality. God also can't just look at our sin and say oh well,he did pretty good otherwise,I'll just ignore the fact he's a lying,adultrous theif who has no respect for me. Would you serve a God like that? Pesonally I could'nt
Let's take a look at Matt. 5:28. Jesus says if you look upon a woman with lust,you have already commited adultery in your heat. Cmon guys,how many can say they've never done that?
Jesus saved an adulterous woman from being stoned. He told her accusers let him who has no sin throw the first stone,then he told her to sin no more. What is sin? Transgression of the law. What is the law? See the top of this page.
Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law,so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Romans 3:19(NIV)
Therefore the law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, that we may be justified by faith. Gal. 3:24 (NASB)
We must make ourselves aware of the law and live by it. Ultimatly that is what being alive in Christ is about. That is why he came to save us, that we may be like him and glorify our Father
Obey the law that Christ didn't die for no reason,even if that reason is only you
