Wednesday, October 13, 2004

Does God's Law of Love End?

We study as God has instructed, "here a little and there a little, precept upon precept" so in this way we will get the precise teaching God has for us. One verse or even some groups of verses can be taken out of context and then used to teach false doctrines. (Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:)

To the believer what does Christ become?
"For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth." Romans 10:4.

In what sense is the word end (Greek, telos) sometimes used in the Scriptures? Object, intention, or design?
"Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy." James 5:11.

What was the object of the law?
"And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death." Romans 7:10.

What further is the end, or object, of the law?
"Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:" 1 Timothy 1:5.

What is charity, or love?
"Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law." Romans 13:10. (1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.).

Why did God send His Son to the world?
"For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:3,4.

Then what is one enabled to do through Christ?
"That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:4.

God is love. His law is the law of love. God's law is fulfilled in us as we obey Him and love as He loves. Praise God, His law, His love endures from everlasting to everlasting, forever. Amen
