No Law For You And I

[To be sure] sin was in the world before ever the Law was given, but sin is not charged to men's account where there is no law [to transgress]. Romans 5:13

But now we are discharged from the Law and have terminated all intercourse with it, having died to what once restrained and held us captive. So now we serve not under [obedience to] the old code of written regulations, but [under obedience to the promptings] of the Spirit in newness [of life]. Romans 7:6

I was driving back from vacation yesterday and I saw a sign on a church that said: the Ten Commandments aren’t multiple choice! I wanted to stop and rearrange the sign to read the Truth which is: We Have Been Discharged From All Relationship To The Ten Commandments! But there were not enough letters and I would probably be arrested because I was in the back country of North Carolina and they probably frown on doing things like that. The funny thing is that they have made them multiple choice, because they fail to keep Saturday Holy, they have moved the Sabbath to Sunday.

But seriously this is a real problem with a lot of Christians, they want to stay with works. They want to keep people bound by the Law: do this, don’t do that. We couldn’t keep any of these things and our Father knew it. So He did away with the Law that convicted us. Through Christ our Father has terminated all of our relationship to the Ten Commandments. Now we serve our Father through faith that is Authored and Finished for us by Jesus Himself.

The wage of keeping Sunday Holy instead of Saturday Holy no longer means death for us. We now serve under the Law of Freedom and Liberty in Christ. We can now actually not sin, because there is now no law that convicts us of sin. Because Jesus removed any law that would hinder our relationship to our Father, He can now cause us to walk in the perfection that He walks in. If the Law of Ten Commandments were still in affect, then there would be sin and that would mean that we could not have unbroken fellowship with our Father. And that would mean that our Father could not be the power within us causing us to walk uprightly and that would mean sin and death for us.

So if you want the Ten Commandments, then that means that you want failure and you want death. As for me I want life and that only comes through totally being terminated from all relationship to the Law of the Ten Commandments. Then here is the really powerful kicker, now Jesus can truly cause me to keep them!
