The infinitely superior Gospel v. the Law Covenant…
The Spirit’s covenant work in the New Covenant performed through the conscience via the new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17) via sanctification is an infinitely superior form of behavioral modification compared to the old failed Covenant of Law (Hebrews 8:7) which sought perfection, conformity (James 2:10) via the sin-nature (Romans 5:12; Romans 8:1-2; Romans 3:20; Galatians 2:16).
The Law is given for the lawless (1 Timothy 1:9) to act as a bulwark against societal implosion in narcissism and the law acts as a Tutor to point the lost, the lawless, to their need for Christ (Galatians 3:24) and once the Law has accomplished that purpose, it is no longer relevant in the life of the redeemed (Galatians 3:25) as the letter kills and only the Spirit gives life (2 Corinthians 3:6).
It is the redeemed in Jesus who walk by the Spirit (Galatians 5:16) via the conscience in the daily process of sanctification that possesses the spiritual capacity in covenant relationship and the Spirit’s anointing (1 John 2:27) to actually please the Father with works of obedience that will carry-over into eternity and inspire works of righteousness that will be judged by Jesus at the BEMA Judgment; works of righteousness that will be judged for authenticity and rewards given or denied accordingly (1 Corinthians 3).
Prior to redemption by faith in Jesus and the establishment of covenant relationship with the Father that is Guaranteed by the presence of the indwelling Holy Spirit in one’s life (John 3; Ephesians 1:13-14), the works of righteousness performed by the unredeemed, the lost, the rebellious, are equated to a filthy, bloody, menstrual cloth in the Father’s nose (Isaiah 64:6).
Jews, Israelite’s, Hebrew Roots fanatics, cults, sects, religions in their totality, simply don’t understand the Gospel and its transformation of the soul of man by grace (unmerited favor) through faith OR these apostates and obstinate self-righteous legalist’ refuse to allow the Holy Spirit to work a work of righteousness in their lives by faith apart from self-righteousness as they strive after letters that only condemn them void atonement (Romans 3:20); this, in a self-perceived aura of spiritual superiority.
