THE LAW AND GRACE !

THE LAW AND GRACE ! "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. There will never be another begotten of the Father: we come through the adoption as sons, and daughters of God. Grace and truth came by Jesus alone. "John bear witness of him, and cried saying, This was he of whom I speak, He that cometh after me is preferred (existed) before me: for he was before me. And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, all 613 Old Testament laws was given unto him by an angel. But grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Now what the law of Moses could not do: and there are millions of people are still trying to abide by the law of Moses: Christian as well as non-Christians. "For God has done what the law could not do, [its power] being weakened by the flesh [the entire nature of man without the Holy Spirit]. Sending his camp that own Son in the guise of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, [God] condemned sin in the flesh [subdued, overcame, depraved it of its power over all who accept that sacrifice], there are millions of believers, that are thinking that their performance and self efforts will please God. Many however all mad God because certain things did not happen in their life or because certain things happen and they thought that God was supposed to do away with it: when he has given us the provisions of His Word and the Holy Spirit to help us. "So that the righteous and just requirements of the Law (it is talking about the law of Moses all 613 commandments) might be fully met in us who live and move not in the ways of the flesh But in the Ways of the Spirit [our lives governed not by the standards and according to the dictates of the flesh, but controlled by the Holy Spirit) for those who are according to the flesh and are controlled by its unholy desires set their minds on and pursue those things which gratify the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit and are controlled by the desires of the Spirit set their minds on and seek those things which gratify the Spirit. Now the mind of the flesh [which is SENSE and REASON without the Holy Spirit] is death [death that comprises all the miseries arising from sin. Both here and hereafter]. But the mind of the Spirit is life and [soul] PEACE [both now and forever]. That is because the mind of the flesh [with its carnal thoughts and purposes] is hostile to God, for it does not submit itself to God's Law: here He is talking a bout the Law of faith; indeed it cannot. So then those who are living the life of the flesh [catering to the appetites and impulses of their carnal nature] cannot please or satisfy God, or be acceptable to Him." (Romans 8:3-8). The amplified Bible. " Then what becomes of [our] pride and [our] boasting ? It is excluded (banished, ruled out entirely), on what Law ? [On the Law] of doing good deeds ? No, but on the Law of faith." (Romans 3:27 ) the amplified Bible. It is written in (Ephesians 2:8-9). "For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.
