Is it “the Law vs. Grace, or Law AND Grace?
What is grace, and what is Law? Can we keep the Law? Or are we dependent on
Yahweh’s “grace” to cover our sins without our obedience? Obedience to what? If
there is no law, can there be sin? NO. The Scriptures are clear on that. Let’s
look at them: Rom. 4:15: “…for
where no law is, there is no transgression. Also in I John 3:4, we
find: Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the
transgression of the law. So, no law, no sin. So this being the case, what is
“grace,” and what law are we under?
Grace is shown to be
undeserved pardon for breaking His Law (
But there was a Law
that really was ‘done away,’ at least for now. It is the law that was added
because of transgressions, and is the that is now suspended. Gal 3:19
Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of
transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made;
and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.
Now ask yourself –
since this Law was added because of transgressions, what Law was this, and what
was being transgressed? Answer: The Law of sacrifices was added because
the moral Law was being broken. Think about it. Yahshua did NOT come to
do away with the Law (Mat. 5:17-18), speaking of the moral Law, the Torah, His
instructions for mankind. ~
