Loud Motorcycles are abusive…when did a man or woman acquire the “right” or “privilege” to abuse children, the elderly, the handicapped, with illegal motor vehicle noise by operating an illegally equipped, illegally LOUD, motorcycle, auto, truck, on our public roadways?
When did it become acceptable and fashionable to destroy the quality of life of thousands of families, daily, for one’s own selfish, narcissistic, pleasure? Who invited you, LOUD biker thug, into our home, places of work and worship?
Concerning the current conflict between Israel’s IDF and Palestine’s “HAMAS” – Iran’s-Yemen’s Houthis – Lebanon’s “Hezbollah” // A response to the Palestinian sympathizers…
Israel was not “founded” in 1948…it’s been Israel’s land since Abraham…they just came “home” in response to the “Never Again” movement.
Israel is not the resultant of terrorism but of Elohim’s sovereign choice concerning His eschatological plan for Time and Eternity. Elohim’s covenant with Abraham concerning the Land of Israel was unconditional, meaning that the Land’s presence and its purposes are not contingent upon Israel’s faithfulness but upon Elohim’s sovereignty and His foreordained decision to save a “remnant” of Israel’s children through the Great Tribulation and initiate His Millennial Kingdom there where Messiah Yeshua will reign for 1000-years prior to the Judgement of Satan and the rebellious of humanity in Hell – an all consuming fire that will purify this Earth in preparation for the New Earth and a New Heaven as foundational to the New Jerusalem (Revelation 20-22).
That Jewish remnant that endures through the Tribulation era, those proselytized by the 144,000 sanctified Jewish witnesses from the 12-Tribes (Rev 7), will serve Yeshua in the Millennial Kingdom and they will believe in Yeshua and they will be the “redeemed” remnant spoken of by Isaiah, reiterated by Paul (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27).
The current war between Israel’s IDF and HAMAS, Iran’s Islamic proxies, Yemen’s Houthis, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, is nothing more than a physical manifestation of the Kingdom War between Elohim v. Satan having manifest within the Realm of Time. Israel remains Elohim’s representatives in the Land given Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and Islam is Satan’s representative through Allah via Muhammad via Ishmael via Hagar.
Careful that you not be found on the wrong side of History.
Concerning the “Serpent” in Genesis 3 and what Eve observed and her obsession and obedience to same,
Those who serve Satan are his “seed” or offspring (Genesis 3:15), they are his children, this includes fallen angels (demons) and the rebellious of humanity; that is, those angels who allied with Satan in the Great Kingdom War and those who ally with Satan within the Realm of Time through their rejection of Elohim’s will (John 6:29; John 8:44).
Satan was NEVER a literal serpent but the Holy Spirit uses the serpent as a metaphor for Satan in the Genesis Narrative as Satan’s attributes e.g., conniving-subtle-deadly are like those of the serpent. If you desire to know what Eve observed in Eden and why she was so enamored by Satan, the Holy Spirit provides us with Satan’s incredibly attractive physiological attributes in Ezekiel 28 and Jesus explains who are the “offspring” or “seed” of Satan in John 8.
A Nation decays and its foundations atrophy when its youth are demonically deceived by the wicked and unsustainable ideological “values” of the Progressive; the Democrat; the Marxist; the Secular Humanist; the Atheist; the sexually perverse espousing LGBTQ deception in public schools, movies, music, literature; the bloody Abortionist; therefore, America is dying in immoral filth as three-generations of American youth have been systematically, methodically, demonically, brainwashed by the wicked in our public institutions while America’s Churches and America’s Dads have stood by and done absolutely NOTHING; therefore, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
Concerning the political/ideological/theological chasm existing between those who support the Nation of Israel and those who support Palestine/Gaza/HAMAS (Islam)…
For the Record concerning the current conflict between Israel v. Palestine (HAMAS), Lebanon (Hezbollah), Iran (their terrorist, Islamic proxies), Yemen (Houthis) and the political-ideological divide existing within the United States…KNOW YOUR ENEMY!
Concerning Islam,
The demonic root of Palestine’s HAMAS; Lebanon’s Hezbollah; Iran’s other terrorist proxies; Yemen’s Houthis, is the religious cult of Islam. Islam’s “Allah” is Satan masquerading as an angel of light via the Arabic moon god. Islam was founded by a 7th-Century nomadic demon-possessed pedophile murdering thief named Muhammad who plagiarized the Torah to construct the Quran. Islam is a demonic cult of death.
Islam’s root is the act of adultery between Abraham and Hagar producing the “wild ass” of a man named Ishmael, the father of the Islmaelites, who are the progenitor of the false prophet, Muhammad. Islam is Satan’s presence within the Realm of Time and physics.
Concerning Allah’s (Satan’s) objectives,
Allah’s (Satan’s) objective is the complete annihilation of Israel’s children and the nullification of the unconditional property covenant Elohim entered into with Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 13:15) as the “Land of Israel” is essential eschatological real estate relevant to the introduction of the Messiah whose primary purpose for entering the Realm of Time was “to destroy the works of the Devil (Allah)” (1 John 3:8b) via a divine battle strategy known as the Gospel of Grace which was first pictured in Genesis 3:21 but ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-10).
Messiah’s purpose for entering the Realm of Time,
Messiah entered the Realm of Time due to an unfathomable angelic rebellion, a rebellion orchestrated by Satan-Allah, that manifest in the Kingdom of Elohim, a rebellion that necessitated a repository for that Kingdom War apart from the Kingdom which under girded the initiation of the Genesis Creation Narrative; this, as Elohim endeavors to restore order and peace to His Kingdom while simultaneously maintaining volitional love with His cherished angelic creation as He deals with the wiles of the Devil via selfless love and sacrifice via the Gospel.
Allah’s obsession with Israel,
Allah’s obsession with the children of Israel and the Land of Israel concerns Satan’s desire to make Elohim a liar concerning Elohim’s divine, sovereign, promises beginning with Genesis 3:15-21, continuing through Noah, Shem, Abraham; the Hebrew Tribes, Sinai, through Judah, through the prophets, through Messiah into the Age of Grace; the Crucifixion; the Gospel and Great Commission; the New Covenant Church; the Tribulation; the Millennial Kingdom; the judgment of Satan, the Beast, the False prophet, the fallen-rebellious angels/demons interned in Hell, forever; the Judgment of the Condemned intertwined with the purification of the Earth by fire; the creation of a New Heaven and a New Earth and ultimately the eternal placement of the New Jerusalem where the redeemed in Messiah will serve Him in resurrected bodies, forever.
Allah’s tactics,
Allah-Satan has pursued his goal of proving Elohim a liar through the failures and demonic compromise of the Adamic/Noahic generations resulting in the annihilation of humanity save eight; the failures of Israel’s children to honor Elohim’s covenants, their unbelief/rejection of Messiah, their unfaithfulness with Baal/Molech.
Allah-Satan sought to defile/deter the Messiah through demonic temptation and the horrors of Roman Crucifixion; Allah-Satan was integral to Herod’s slaughter of innocence to murder the Messiah; Allah-Satan assumed he had won victory at Golgotha; Allah-Satan inspired Titus-the 10th-Roman Legion’s destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD; Allah-Satan conspired with Hitler concerning “The Final Solution” and the Jewish Holocaust; Allah-Satan, through his demons, possesses the heart, soul, mind, of every Islamist whose obsessive-compulsive objective in life is the death of every Israeli man, woman and child and the custody of Israel’s property into the hands of Allah’s servants, a Land bordered by the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. Allah’s objective through Islam is the death of anyone who rejects the false prophet Muhammad and his demonic religion of Islam.
Spiritual-Political ramifications of Allah’s presence in Time and Politics, today…The United States…
As we witness the unfathomable rise and presence of antisemitism in the United States and around the World, understand that all we see in the conflict between Israel’s IDF and the armies of Islam is SPIRITUAL in nature; this conflict is nothing more than a physical manifestation of the ongoing Spiritual conflict between good v. evil, Elohim v. Satan.
Also, know that every man and woman who supports the armies of Islam, whether they be represented by Palestine – Jordan – Iran – Lebanon – Yemen or any other Nation – State throughout the World, these are servants of Satan. This is why those in the United States who march for Palestine supporting the terrorist organization of HAMAS and express fervent hatred for Israel; these, overwhelmingly belong to a Political Party that advocates for the murder of babies in the womb; the uncensored and undeterred expansion of sexual perversion throughout American society via LGBTQ objectives which specifically target America’s children and seek the destruction of the Biblical family unit (Allah loathes the Biblical family); this is why Marxism and Progressivism and Abortion and BLM and ANTIFA and DEI and reverse discrimination AKA Affirmative Action mandates, are worshiped like gods among those who identify with the Democrat-Progressive-Marxist-Secular Humanist Party of the United States; therefore, know your enemy.
You will know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:15-20). Elohim is victorious through Messiah Jesus (Revelation 5:5).
Question was asked in a religious forum “…why [are] these people of Israel still keeping the ten commandments even though the covenant was faulted[?]”
Explanation,
Israel’s children rejected Messiah Yeshua sent to them (Matthew 15:24) and chose self-righteousness through law-keeping (Torah Law-Sinai-Moses) as opposed to faith in the One who kept the Law for us (Matthew 5:17) and offers us His righteousness imputed-gifted into and over our lives by faith in Him as Messiah; this, in exchange for our sin via New Covenant promise (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 8:7); therefore, Israel has stumbled over the Stumbling Stone laid in Zion (Romans 9:32); therefore, only a remnant of Israel’s children will escape the “second death” in Hell due unbelief (Isaiah 10:22; Romans 9:27; Rev 20:11-15); for this error, Israel’s children have been placed under Judgment, the Gospel taken from them and given to the Gentiles until the fullness of the Gentiles have entered the Kingdom of Elohim (Romans 11:25). This divine reality is relevant and observable to this very day. Yeshua is the only Way to life in the Kingdom of Elohim and this divine reality is an immutable Truth for Jew, Israelite, Gentile (John 14:6).
30 What shall we say, then That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith; 31 but that Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness did not succeed in reaching that law. 32 Why Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone, 33 as it is.
Satan’s portal into Christianity via Charismata, factions of Pentecostalism and other works cults via false doctrines, be aware and know your enemy…
Discussion,
Satan is alive and well in these FB religious debate forums and his sincerely deceived servants vomit the Devil’s agenda with a stubborn heart and corrupted theology that potentially destroys the Christian walk of the naïve and the unlearned who are defenseless to the tantalizing words of wickedness and religion.
Sinless Christianity – An ungodly heresy that confuses and dissuades the naïve…
I am amazed at the number of well-meaning charismatic contributors in these forums who espouse the godless heresy of “sinless perfectionism” or “sinless Christianity.” The entire false premise of attaining sinless perfectionism subsequent redemption by faith is a detachment from reality, a rejection of reality, a spiritual illness absorbed into factions of Pentecostalism and other forms of silly Charismata.
The only righteousness, the only perfection, sinful humanity can attain in a body of flesh condemned to death due the Adamic sin-nature (Romans 5:12) is the sinless perfection of Jesus imputed-gifted into and over the life of the one who believes-trusts in Jesus as Messiah (1 Peter 1:18-19); this righteousness earned for us by Jesus’ blood atonement provided at Golgotha and it is NOT a righteousness of our own but a gifted righteousness by faith that initiates the Father’s covenant promise of “not guilty” based solely on the work of Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 8:12). If we say we have no sin we are a liar and the truth is not in us; hence, the need for 1 John 1:9 due 1 John 1:8; both, written to the redeemed in Jesus.
Tongues – Demonic paganism having entered the portals of a form of Christianity that insults the Spirit,
Biblical Tongues were a reality for the First-Century Church at Pentecost (Acts 2) as these actual “languages” and dialects spoken and interpreted by those having not studied were given as a sign to unbelieving Jews that the Holy Spirit, as promised integral with a New Covenant (Jeremiah 31; Ezekiel 36), had indeed manifest upon the Earth and the Spiritual gift of tongues was also given as a tool of proliferation relevant to the “Great Commission” (Matthew 28) as the Gospel was to be preached to all the Nations of the known World. With the advent of the first Canon, the Muratorian canon (circa 180AD), Biblical tongues faded away as the perfect Word had manifest and was complete in its message.
Today’s Pentecostal and Charismatic “tongues” are pagan in origin finding their genesis in the pagan temple at Delphi adjacent to Corinth and the intoxicated, gibberish, oracles of “enlightenment” provided by a pagan priestess having inhaled an intoxicating substance burning below her throne. This pagan ritual carried over into the Church at Corinth and resulted in much consternation for Paul who ultimately instructed women to remain silent in the Church services due the confusion created by the pagan practice among the women in attendance (1 Corinthians 14:33-36).
Water Baptism – a works doctrine of Pentecostalism and other forms of Charismata…
There exists only TWO-elements relevant to the Salvation “process;” that is, repentance (Luke 13:3) and faith (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 2:16; Romans 3:21; John 3). Water Baptism is an act – work of obedience that follows salvation but water is not an element of salvation nor is water causative or regenerative (John 3; Romans 10:9-10; Ephesians 2:8-9).
__________________________________
What is the danger of these Charismatic doctrines of demons slithering through the portals of Christianity?
The “dangers” of Charismata and false doctrine promulgated through same is the eternal damnation of the soul of the naïve and the unlearned who enter into a Pentecostal/Charismatic congregation and observe the madness of pagan gibberish, the out of touch with reality behavior relevant to “sinless perfectionism,” and the salvation by works espoused by water baptism as a regenerative element of salvation.
The dangers of charismatic tongues,
The unlearned, the naïve, who legitimately admit they don’t speak in a tongue subsequent their confession of faith are told that the “Sign” of their redemption, salvation, the presence of the Holy Spirit in their life is the “gift of tongues” and if one does not speak in a tongue, they are not redeemed, they are not saved from the “second death” in the Hell; therefore, a façade of tongues follows but a deep nervousness and worry and absence of joy and peace exists in the honest but deceived Christian proselyte because they KNOW they’re speaking gibberish and nonsense yet they comply out of “duty” to the masses, out of pride, and a sincere desire to belong in communion with fellow believers…this is cultic…this is heresy.
The dangers of “sinless Christianity,”
Also, the naïve, the unlearned, the new Christian proselyte who is told that subsequent their confession of faith they will become “sinless” and live in true purity, holiness, before our Lord yet those who have maintained a connection with reality understand that they’re NOT sinless in word, thought or deed and once again, doubt, fear, unworthiness, creep into their walk with Jesus through the Holy Spirit and peace, intimacy, with our Creator is destroyed due false doctrine promulgated by certain factions of Pentecostalism and other ungodly forms of charismata.
The heresy of water baptism as an element of salvation,
Also, the naïve, the unlearned, who are told they must be baptized in water in order to complete the salvation process, these are baptized into a works cult that denies the sole-sufficiency of Jesus’ blood to atone for sin by faith, alone. Any façade of Christianity that teaches water baptism is essential for salvation is a works cult and serves the desires of the Devil, not Messiah. Water baptism is a “work” of obedience that follows salvation by grace though faith, alone.
In conclusion,
Beware of the works of the Devil slithering through the pages and doctrines espoused by his servants in these “religious” forums. The purity of the Gospel is this, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved; this by faith in what Jesus did for you at Golgotha.
Someone said that “True love is keeping the Commandments.” Is this true?
Discussion,
The Commandments don’t espouse “love” but condemnation (Romans 3:20). Faith in the One who embodies the Commandments, the Logos of Elohim (John 1), espouses true love as that faith honors the Father (John 6:29) and engenders New Covenant relationship with Him (John 3) and subsequently engenders obedience through the indwelling Spirit (Galatians 5:16); therefore, the letter kills as it defines man’s culpability void atonement (Romans 3:20); the Spirit gives life through the Son via faith (2 Corinthians 3:6).
Divinely inspired obedience results from true love for the Son, the Father, the Holy Spirit, this, by faith and this engenders obedience inspired by the indwelling Holy Spirit via the production of divine fruit that fulfills all law, divine fruit of the Spirit that methodically fulfills every divine Commandment as there is no law against the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:16-23).
Yes, Jesus did say “If you love me you will obey my Commandments” (John 14:15) but “love” comes first and true obedience naturally flows through the Holy Spirit given as Guarantor of New Covenant relationship with the Father (Ephesians 1:13-14) as true obedience is NOT possible void the Spirit (Galatians 5:16).
Faith in Jesus that honors the Father (John 6:29).
Receive the indwelling Holy Spirit and walk in obedience to the Spirit’s tutelage in daily sanctification producing fruit that honors the Father’s will (Ephesians 1:13-14; Galatians 5:16).
Live in peace with Elohim, eternally (Romans 5:1).
Someone said that the Holy Spirit is a Comforter but does not convict the World of sin. Is this true? What is the purpose of the Holy Spirit?
Discussion,
The Holy Spirit is the Arbiter of free will concerning the human conscience relevant to behavioral discernment; this, pertaining to both the lost and the redeemed as the Spirit is a “restrainer” of evil (2 Thessalonians 2:7); therefore, the Holy Spirit urges humanity toward behaviors that are sustainable and His intercession and work in the life of the Christian is magnified by the Spirit’s indwelling presence given as Guarantor of Covenant through faith in Jesus as Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14; John 14:16; Galatians 5:16).
It is the seared, corrupted, human conscience, the stubborn and defiled conscience that has repeatedly eschewed the intercession of the Spirit that is given-over to a life of nihilism and defilement; therefore, how can one say that the Holy Spirit plays no role in convicting the individual and the World of sin (Romans 1:18-32)?
The Holy Spirit and Christian sanctification,
Concerning the redeemed in Jesus, it is the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit during daily Christian sanctification as Counselor, Teacher and Tutor (John 14:16; 1 John 2:27) that prepares the Christian for service in the New Jerusalem; therefore, I disagree with you that the Holy Spirit plays no role in convicting the conscience of ungodly conduct as this conviction is the initiation phase of repentance, repentance being essential for salvation concerning the lost and essential for restored intimacy concerning the redeemed in Jesus who inevitably relent to the Adamic sin-nature from time-to-time; hence, the need for John 3 concerning the lost and the need for 1 John 1:9 concerning the redeemed in Jesus.
Void the presence of the Holy Spirit in the World as a Restrainer of evil, human kind would implode in unrestrained narcissism and nihilism; this, as the Holy Spirit is the Logistical overseer of the Creation narrative (Genesis 1:2) and the Divine Restrainer of the Evil One (Galatians 5:16; 2 Thessalonians 2:7); this, for Elohim’s eschatological purposes going forward.
Jesus said,
The Work of the Holy Spirit
“I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged. The Gospel of John, Chapter 16
What is the purpose of Law? What is the difference between the codified Law (law of sin and death) v. the Spiritual Law (law of the Spirit of life) in Romans 8:2?
Discussion,
The purpose of all Law, whether it be codified e.g. Hammurabi – Sinai – Criminal Code (Penal Code) – Civil Code (Administrative) or Spiritual Law (divine law written upon the human heart and arbitrated via the human conscience, Romans 2:14-15) is as an arbiter of free will, lawwhich defines human moral behavior i.e. mores – norms – values that are sustainable; moral behavior that furthers the divine prerogatives for Human Kind relevant to the inalienable rights as granted by our Creator e.g. life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness.
Differentiating codified law from spiritual law through application,
Codified laws (a written code) are created in response to the genomic Adamic sin-nature of humanity, a sin-nature possessing the propensity for narcissism, selfishness, pride, arrogance, greed, inordinate affections, inordinate lust, covetousness, all of which are unsustainable behaviors, unsustainable conduct, concerning the welfare, the happiness, the liberty, the sustainability of a social group seeking to exist in an atmosphere of peace, dignity, honor, contentment; this, concerning the whole of the community.
Codified laws define what behavior is sustainable through the “negative” via a definition of what behaviors are NOT sustainable and modern jurisprudence goes to great lengths to provide “elements” that define every behavior that wars against sustainable mores, norms, values, as derived from “natural law” or the Spiritual Law (that law written upon the human heart and arbitrated by human conscience), behaviors “naturally” deemed appropriate thus sustainable for the welfare of the whole of society. It is also true that some codified law is the resultant of trial and error where a society or legislative body determines a particular conduct is not sustainable due to its ultimate destructive, divisive, outcome over time via experiential relevance.
The Codified Law and the lawless in society,
Therefore, the codified law is given for the lawless (1 Timothy 1:9), the antisocial personality, whose conscience is seared, a conscience that is corrupted and not regulated by a natural sense of right and wrong, good and evil, as the Divine “Restrainer” of evil, the Holy Spirit (2 Thessalonians 2:7), is absent in the life of the incorrigible, the rebellious, the narcissist, as they have been given-over to pursue those things, those behaviors, that are not socially sustainable and thus war against life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness relevant to the whole of society (Romans 1:18-32).
Therefore, the codified law, the written code, is given to define what is sustainable behavior through the negative; that is, by defining what behaviors, actions, are NOT sustainable and violate acceptable mores, norms, values and the codified law also articulates the negative consequences (punishment) for participating in this antisocial behavior; hence, the “law of sin and death” (Romans 8:2); therefore, the codified law is the law of condemnation as it defines the culpability of mankind but offers no semblance of hope or atonement for violations of same (Romans 3:20).
It is also relevant and important to note the subjectivity inherit within a written code as the sin-nature of Human Kind goes to great lengths to justify and/or rationalize antisocial behavior via obfuscation/rationalization/the definition of words – subjectivity; therefore, criminal “elements” e.g. mens rea (the guilty mind – “knowingly and willingly or negligently” or actions performed) accompany each individual offense; this, for absolute clarification concerning culpability. How does this written code compare/contrast to the Spiritual Law written upon the human heart?
Finally, the Codified Law and Sinai – Moses,
It’s interesting to note that the Spiritual Law had been in the World working through Human Kind from Adam to Moses and the Spiritual Law convicted the Adamic and Noahic generations (Later – Sodom and Gomorrah) of such defilement that Elohim destroyed all of humanity in judgment by water save eight (Genesis 6; Romans 1:18-32). So why Sinai?
Sinai’s Decalogue etched in stone by Elohim and Moses’ 603-laws scratched upon parchment were codified specifically for sanctification and eschatological purposes concerning Israel’s children as Elohim did NOT desire a repeat of the horrific infidelity displayed by the Adamic/Noahic generations, demonically rooted behavior that thwarted their ability to produce and introduce the Messiah into the World in order to “destroy the works of the Devil” (Genesis 3:15; 1 John 3:8b) via a battle strategy known as the Gospel which was ordained “before Time began” (2 Timothy 1:8-10; Genesis 3:21).
Sinai and Moses’ codified laws, given specifically to Israel’s children and sojourners with them who sought the protective benefits of that theocracy, were but a mere fragment of the comprehensive Spiritual Law written upon the heart of humanity and Sinai and Moses were never intended to be a path to righteousness (a right standing) with Elohim or a path to eternal life in the Kingdom via the forgiveness of sin for if one desired to keep the codified law sufficiently to earn a right standing with Elohim, they were required to keep that codified law in perfect obedience, perfection (James 2:10) which was not possible due the Adamic sin-nature (Romans 5:12); therefore, Sinai and Moses ultimately condemned and cursed anyone seeking righteousness through them (Galatians 3:10; Romans 3:20). From Adam forward, righteousness (a right standing) with Elohim was always predicated upon “faith” (Hebrews 11) and NOT works of the law (Galatians 2:16; Ephesians 2:8-9).
Spiritual Law “Law of the Spirit of Life” (Romans 8:2),
The Spiritual Law, that which is written upon the human heart, infused within the human genome on Day-6 of creation, has been relevant as an arbiter of free will subsequent the creation of the angels. The Spiritual Law or the “Law of the Spirit of Life” (Romans 8:2), the eternal law, defines what is divine law through the positive; that is, the Law of the Spirit of Life motivates and articulates what behaviors and attributes fulfill the righteousness, divine mandates i.e. sustainable behavior as they relate to the holiness and righteousness of our Creator, Elohim, and against these sustainable, holy, righteous, behavior’s (fruit of the Spirit) there is no law (Galatians 5:16-23).
The New Covenant and the Spiritual Law,
It is the Spiritual Law, written upon the human heart on Day-6 of creation, infused within the human genome by Elohim, that is integral with Human Kind having been created in the likeness of Elohim thereby possessing certain divine communicable attributes of our Creator (Genesis 1:26-28). The Spiritual Law written upon the human heart is but one of these divine communicable attributes provided by Elohim for His eschatological purposes going forward.
In the New Covenant, established in Messiah’s blood at Golgotha (Matthew 26:28), it is the Spiritual Law that is employed by the indwelling Holy Spirit who is given by Covenant promise to the redeemed in Jesus (Ephesians 1:13-14; Ezekiel 36:22; Jeremiah 31); it is the Spiritual Law in combination with the redeemed conscience of the faithful in Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17) that the righteous mandates of the “Law of the Spirit of Life” are fulfilled during daily sanctification as the Holy Spirit methodically prepares the redeemed in Jesus for service in the New Jerusalem; this, as the one who “walks by the Spirit” (Galatians 5:16) is methodically guided by the Spirit when confronted by any number of moral, ethical, decisions made during one’s daily life; it is the indwelling Holy Spirit who urges the redeemed toward righteousness via the redeemed conscience; this, through an enlivened sense of discernment and wisdom via an enlivened and applicable Spiritual Law.
When one honors the Holy Spirit in daily sanctification and allows the Spirit to produce divine “fruit” (Galatians 5:22-23) through them, they obey every Commandment, every edict, that pleases the Father, the Son and the Spirit, eternally, and this fruit will reap rewards at the BEMA Judgment of Messiah Jesus (1 Corinthians 3:13-15). Jesus did say “You will know them by their fruit” (Matthew 7:15-20).
In closing,
Therefore, in the New Covenant of grace, the sin-nature of mankind is moderated-mitigated by the presence of the indwelling Holy Spirit via a New Nature (2 Corinthians 5:17) that wars with the old Adamic sin-nature (Romans 7:14-25) and grace/forgiveness via the imputation of Messiah’s righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21; Hebrews 8:12) is provided by the Father so that the defiled conscience is mitigated, liberated, by the “new creation” (2 Corinthians 5:17) having been “born again” by faith in Messiah Jesus (John 3:3-5); therefore, peace with the Father is realized through faith in Jesus (Romans 5:1) and redeemed mankind is freed from the consequences of the written code by grace (Romans 6:14) and is therefore able to live in harmony with Elohim and walk in a manner that pleases Elohim via the production of “divine fruit” during daily sanctification; divine fruit, against which there are no laws as this divine fruit defines the very nature of our Holy and Righteous Creator and His will for humanity as well as His will for His cherished angelic creation (Galatians 5:22-23; Romans 8:1-9).
