I, for one, am not under the law, for I am in Christ.
The whole law hangs upon the first two commandments.
That ought to tell you something.
I'm glad you feel that way, However that in no way discredits the law, If you have gotten rid of sin in your life, hey your free from the law, infact your doing better then Paul according to him he's the chief of sinners..
1 Timothy 1:
14And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
15This
is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation,
that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
However for me, I am still a sinner also, and I need Jesus, and I need the law to show me I'm sinning against the person I claim to Love..
1 Timothy 1
8But we know that the
law is good, if a man use it lawfully;
9Knowing this, that the law is
not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
10For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
11According to the glorious
gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.
We all have things were still struggling with, or maybe not, Maybe you are made perfect in Christ, However we don't know and that's up to Christ to decide, Until then we Believe that he's purged us of sin once we've asked him too, and we confess it, and then we can be made whole, The law is no longer in effect, the curse of the law is no longer binding, were not sinners anymore, God has forgave us, now if we break it again, were back under the law, unless you believed once Saved always saved, But that can't be otherwise Saul shouldn't have ever sinned against God or God shouldn't have left him, because it says Saul.
1 Samuel 10
9And it was
so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel,
God gave him another heart: (So he was converted) and all those signs came to pass that day.
10And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
11And it came to pass, when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What
is this
that is come unto the son of Kish?
Is Saul also among the prophets?
12And one of the same place answered and said, But who
is their father? Therefore it became a proverb,
Is Saul also among the prophets?
13And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place
Saul prophesied, Knowing all the things we know will transpire to him in the future, it's hard to believe at one time he was chosen of God, and God even gave him a knew heart as He said he'd do for us.
Ezekiel 36:26
So I went on a whole other subject there, but basically saved always saved thrown out the window, So it's possible to come back under the law if we sin, We may come to God, and be forgiven completely, but we can always reject him again, it's just that easy unless we grow to Love him and his Son who died for us, So that means we need the law more then ever.
Way should we reject it the law? when the only way we know were committing sin, is through God's word, and his law.
His Love is the most important part, But his Love only makes us change, But without his law we don't know we even need too.
Until were sure we've gotten all sin out of our life, and we've asked our brethren and sisters forgiveness of the things we may have done to them, Then we need the law, it's just how it is, Now if you tell me your free of Sin, Jesus and John already had answer to that....
John 15:22
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin:
but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
1 John 1
8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us
our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us
Sooo yeah, The definition of Sin is transgression of His Law
1 John 3
4Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. 5And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. 6Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him. 7Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
So if you say "I'm not under the law" Then you also say "I'm no longer sinning" and by God's grace that may be true, I'm happy for you and I pray I reach that point myself, still praying fasting, and committing myself to God daily,
1 Corinthians 15
31I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
Dying to self, Dying to Hatred, pride, Envy, Lust, and every sins under the Sun, Gotta do it,
So by God's grace let's make it together..
Godbless.
