Do we then nullify the Law through faith? Far from it! On the contrary, we establish the Law
Im going to take you out of denominationalism for a moment, and into christian mystic, as you have to see it from Paul's POV vs, how denominations teach Paul's doctrine.
1.) We know that we can't please God by works, law, or commandment keeping. So, all of that is not discipleship.
Paul said. "as many as be PERFECT",.. "the fullness of the Stature of Christ".
See that? That is referring to "the mind of Christ", and "walking in the Spirit". IN other words, that is SPIRITUAL.
That is where real faith and real discipleship exists.
2.) "Spiritual" is not self effort of any kind. So, "keeping" stuff, like law and commandments is not Spiritual, its self effort.
Self effort is not discipleship, ... as this is that "present your body a living sacrifice""" stuff.... and that is not Faith, that is Works.
Notice this now....
"Without Faith, its impossible to please God".
And what is that FAITH ?
That is SPIRITUAL understanding that = is to "come to the knowledge of the Truth" and go right on into revelation knowledge.
"They eyes of your understanding" being OPENED = Enlightened", is to have received LIGHT.
Brother, the scriptures are not given to read, they are given to STUDY...= "study to show yourself approved to God".
Why?
Because when you study, you meditate on the word and then God gives you revelation., = that is "discerning the word" Spiritually.
The eyes of your understanding being OPENED.
See that?
That is not reading the scriptures like they are a DICTIONARY and that was J Calvin's issue.
3.) Now, let me show you why law and commandment keeping obsession is not God's Salvation understood correctly.
Its very simple.
IN Heaven, there is no Law, no Moses Law, no commandment keeping, and no self effort to be good.
Why? Because Heaven is a Spiritual Kingdom, first, and a Literal kingdom , 2nd.
Christ said that the KOG, is "within you"..... not outside somewhere... but "IN YOU">. Luke 17:21
And why does He say that? Its because Christ and GOD are the Kingdom.....ITs a Spiritual Kingdom of LIGHT.
The born again are the "temple of the Holy Spirit". = The KOG is in them.
"Christ in YOU">.. = The KOG in you. and being "in Christ" is the Born again, in the KOG.
1.) God exists IN LIGHT
2.) Jesus is the LIGHT of the World
3.) The Born again are CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT.
4.) The born again, exist "under Grace"......not under the law.
Why?
Because GRACE is the Law of the KOG, and the born again are "translated from DARKNESS .....TO
LIGHT....into this GRACE.
The born again, exit THERE, and there is no Law there.... = "not under the law but under GRACE"
There is no Moses Law or 10 Commandments or any of this, in Heaven.
ZERO.
There is no NEED for them.
See, the law is for the unlawful, and commandments are for instruction, and none of this is needed in Heaven.
Does God and Christ need to be told about the Law and Commandments?
Not quite.
See, the law and commandments are not faith based, and Christianity is only faith based.
The Walk of Faith is not the walk of law and commandment keeping, as that is SELF EFFORT, ... its works, and works are not spiritual.
Whereas
CHRISTianity , is ONLY Spiritual.
"""God is A Spirit"".
Being In CHRIST, seated in heavenly places is : SPIRITUAL Birth proven.
So, when a believer is trying to see the spiritual and be spiritual THROUGH Law and Commandments, then their understanding of the KOG, of CHRISTianity, and regarding born again, is not correct as they are trying to SEE IT through the Carnal mind.
