An unassuming, deceived, legalist said:
1) God said, I will teach you to obey My Laws. Be ye
perfect because the Father is perfect.
2) God’s Laws stands fast for ever.
3) Obey that, grace will stop. Obedience to God’s law
will save us. Sinners can’t inherent the kingdom of God.
Discussion,
The legalistic statement above is the perfect example of the
Devil’s subtle deception in Judaism and religion in general as divine Truth is
commingled with demonic deception that deceives the soul into Hell via
self-righteousness via works.
First of all,
If perfection were attainable in the flesh, Jesus would not
have needed to suffer and die in our place as blood atonement for sin
(Galatians 2:21); therefore, Jesus entered Time via the virgin seed
circumventing the Adamic sin-nature and walked blamelessly before the Father as
the Spotless Lamb who takes away the sins of the World (John 1; 1 Peter
1:18-19; 1 John 2:1-2).
The only “perfection” humanity can attain in this
life constrained by Time, physics, flesh, is the perfection of Jesus
imputed-gifted into the life of the one who believes in Him as Messiah (2
Corinthians 5:21). This was first demonstrated for you in Genesis 3:21 but so
few listen and see and find life in what the Holy Spirit proclaims.
Second,
Elohim’s eternal law is the Spiritual Law or the “law
of the Spirit of life” (Romans 8:2; 2:14-15) that has been extant as
an arbiter of free will subsequent the creation of the angels and infused
within the human genome on Day-6 of Creation as Human Kind was created in the
spiritual image of Elohim possessing certain divine communicable attributes of
Elohim; this, for eschatological purposes going forward (Genesis 1:26-28).
Third, Grace is eternally relevant…
Grace will never be nullified as the very existence of
humanity and redemption from sin hinges upon grace (unmerited favor) from the
Father; this, both as an element of salvation and during daily sanctification.
Grace will be eternally relevant as free will remains eternally necessary,
essential, as foundational to authentic love and intimacy with our Creator.
Finally, Concerning Sinai-Torah-Moses,
Sinai-Torah-Moses are but mere, incomplete, fragments of
codification relevant to the eternal Spiritual Law and Sinai and Torah and
Moses are wholly incomplete, insufficient, inadequate, as instruments of
righteousness (a right standing) with the Father (Romans 3:20);
Sinai-Torah-Moses were given as elements of sanctification-eschatology
concerning Elohim’s efforts to thwart Israel’s compromise with Baal and Molech,
pagan compromise that nullified the Adamic and Noahic generations as
progenitors of the Messiah, the Gospel message, the Great Commission; these,
being essential eschatological elements concerning the “destruction of
the Devil’s works” via the Messiah (1 John 3:8b) via the Gospel that
was ordained as a divine battle strategy “before Time began“
(2 Timothy 1:8-10).
In closing,
The codified Law you worship, Sinai-Torah-Moses, were both
temporary and incomplete and are of no consequence concerning righteousness
with the Father or life in the New Jerusalem; Sinai-Torah-Moses were simply
eschatological roadmaps pointing to the need for Messiah Jesus by faith
(Galatians 3:24); therefore, it is high time that you leave the bygone Covenant
of Law (Hebrews 8:7) and find life in the New Covenant of Grace through faith
Jesus as your Messiah and the indwelling Holy Spirit as your obedience to the
Father’s will via the production of divine fruit (2 Corinthians 3; Galatians
5:16-23; Matthew 7:15-20).
