Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law

http://destinedtoberevealed.com/category/old-testament/

Gal 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that hangeth on a tree:

Gal 3:14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

Old Testament LawIt is through Christ alone that the promise of inheritance given to Abraham and his seed could be realized; Abraham is the father of all who have this common faith in and blessing from Christ.

Gal 3:19 Wherefore then the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; [and it was] ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

Why then was the law given? It was because of sin, and it would only be in force until Christ came and nailed it to the cross (Col 2:14). Jesus slew sin on the cross.

Gal 3:23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

Why would anyone want to go back to this condition, kept under the bondage of the Old Testament Law, as opposed to enjoying freedom in Christ through faith?

Gal 3:24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

We cannot be under the justification of the Old Testament Law, as it has been terminated. Our justification now is in the faith of Christ; it is not the works of the law which no one can keep, and after Christ no one could keep.
 The Old Testament Law instructed men that justification would come through Christ; some received this through faith in Him.
 The law and the prophets were until John the Baptist. Those things that were written in the Law of Moses and in the prophets were fulfilled in Christ; Jesus brought to an end the Old Testament Law as He was the completion of it.

Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

No where in scripture does God promise any rewards to those who claim to be Jewish and practice Judaism, this excludes Him from having any part in establishing a nation for them. In stark contrast there are many verses condemning this particular religion, and all man made religions, and there are terrible judgments yet to take place in Jerusalem. To those who claimed to be Jews but where of the synagogue of Satan, Jesus informed them that their house would become desolate.

He told the parable of the vineyard to the false teachers that would help plan His murder.

Matt 21:38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

Jesus also told these chief priests of the punishment for their wicked actions.

Matt 21:40-41 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

Below are a few descriptions of the judgments yet to come on Jerusalem.

Zech 14:1-2 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

 

Jer 9:10-11 For the mountains will I take up a weeping and wailing, and for the habitations of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none can pass through them; neither can men hear the voice of the cattle; both the fowl of the heavens and the beast are fled; they are gone.11 And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons; and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.

Christians to whom the gospel message was given and received, must produce fruits or likewise be punished.

They are not all the Israel of God just because they happen to reside in a place called Israel. The true Spiritual Israel is the whole family of God that calls upon Jesus.

Luke 1:68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,

Obviously this refers to all believers in Christ, as he did not only come to set free those that were in Israel but indeed all of mankind.

Rom 9:6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they [are] not all Israel, which are of Israel:

    LOL
    I am glad you think that nasty “old” Law the 10 Commandments have been dumped in the trash because I can now steal your money, murder you and fornicate with your wife – right? And there is no longer any condemnation?? Right? That is exactly what you are saying!!!

    If there is no Law there is no sin—period. The LAW defines what is SIN.

    Without a definition of what constitutes SIN how would any know what sin IS?

    If there is no law there is no longer a need to repent — there is nothing to repent of if there is no LAW?

    Do you not understand that Jesus Christ is the God in the Old Testament?

    Christ wrote the Law with His own finger, If you will read John you will see every thing that was made, and that include man, was made by THE Word who became our Savior.

    When Christ was talking with the Jews did He not state “before Abraham was “I AM”
    That is the Name of God given to Moses – “I AM”.

    Did Christ not clearly state “think not I am come to destroy the Law or the Prophets I am NOT come to destroy but to fulfill the LAW”. Christ came to fill up the Law it was physical and now is filled up — it is now spiritual as well.

    The school master that brought us to Christ was the Sacrificial Law which was added because the children of Israel were transgressing the HOLY LAW of God — so to show them transgressions of the Law demands death the sacrificial Law was added.

    Why do you ignore all the words of Christ and the Apostles that command the disciples of our Master to follow and obey the Holy Eternal Law of God, the Law that reveals to man the Holy Righteous, Divine Nature of God.
