If we are walking, being led by the spirit and are of Christ we have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
Galatians 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Galatians 5:24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Hebrews 10
15The Holy Spirit also testifies to us about this. First He says:16“This is the covenant I will make with them
after those days, declares the Lord.
I will put My laws in their hearts
and inscribe them on their minds.”b17Then He adds:
“Their sins and lawless acts
I will remember no more.”18And where these have been forgiven, an offering for sin is no longer needed.
The law (Jesus) is alive and well. Love is the fulfillment of the law.
Paul the apostle tells his readers in Romans that love (walking in the Spirit) is the fulfillment of the law. ... And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself. ' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments” (Matt 40:37–40 NIV).
We are drawn to keep the law ... it's about who is motivating you to do so ...
Thank you Jesus for all that you do! Glory be to God for Him changing hearts and minds. AMEN!
