The purpose of the Law is so that people will know what is right and what is wrong or what is good and what is evil. Where there is no law, there is no transgression. When Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, they automatically passed this knowledge to all of their descendants. We are all born with this knowledge and it is called our conscience. That is why we are cursed by this law because our sins count against us. Jesus born under the law simply means that Jesus as a human is descendant from Adam and Eve and was under the same law as us. The good news is that because Jesus was human just like us, was perfect, and allowed himself to die in our place, in God's kingdom of perfect justice and mercy, life is owed Him by the Father which He gives to those predestined to salvation.
is this right ?
“When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and
it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then
let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
And when she is departed out of his house,
she may go and be another man's wife.
And if the latter husband hate her, and
write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;
her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.”
Deuteronomy 24:1-4
or is this right
“And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him,
Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him. And he answered and said unto them,
What did Moses command you?
And they said, Moses suffered to
write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
And Jesus answered and said unto them,
For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
But
from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; and they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
And he saith unto them,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her. And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.”
Mark 10:2-9, 11-12 KJV
do you see how different it is and why ?
“knowing 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, for
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;”
1 Timothy 1:9-10
the law isn’t about right and wrong it’s about sin
“Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”
Romans 3:20 KJV
if it was to give the knowledge of righteousness we soundly have ever needed the gospel which came after the law
“But
now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 3:21-23 KJV
so you have the law making everyone aware of sin and then you have the gospel which says if you hear and believe you will be saved
“
The law and the prophets were until John:
since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.”
Luke 16:16 KJV
one is to make us all guilty the whole world and to know our sin the other is to come and save us through repentance and remission of sin imparting Gods truth and righteousness by the spirit
we could actually obey Moses law perfectly but it would require us to judge and condemn tone we witnessed do a sin it would require us to supply sacrificial blood constantly to the leviticle preists it would require us to actually disobey Jesus word in the gospel
“Ye have heard that
it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: ( Moses law exodus 21:24-25)
but I say unto you, ( Gods word ) That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.”
Matthew 5:38-39 KJV
The law gives the understanding and knowledge of sin and shows us were sinners too
the gospel gives the understanding of Gods children and knowledge that we are those children through the son and we can be redeemed and set free from sin
