Under the Old Testament Law

 

The true followers of Jesus are not under the Old Testament law of bondage, but the new law of liberty which is in Christ. The covenant of Christ was established upon better promises (Heb 8:6). Also the new law of Christ is spiritually discerned, and therein lays the reason for the confusion. Very few understand the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of being Born Again. The false teachers declare the commandments of men, and are devoid of the Spirit of Christ, leading many to damnation.

 under the old testament law

Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah.

Christ our redeemer indeed had a most excellent ministry, and is the mediator of a superior covenant. Those who were under the Old Testament law were the Hebrews. With the arrival of Jesus came the New Testament promises to all of mankind.

Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day [that] I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD.

Christ’s second covenant unto mankind was to take away their sins. Instead of allowing a covering for them as was the case under the old testament law, He became the final sacrifice, and is the law.

None who are in Christ can be under the Old Testament law

Jer 31:33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

This passage refers to the whole house of Israel which includes all believers in Christ. Those that truly embrace the words of the Lord Jesus are most definitely not under the Old Testament law. Those filled with the Holy Spirit are the Elect, chosen unto Christ. The promise of eternal life which is incorruption and immortality is the hope of the Spirit filled believer and is our assurance unto Salvation.

Isa 51:4 Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people.

Isa 51:6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.

Isa 51:7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.

Isaiah is referring to the followers of Jesus, who is God manifest in the flesh. It is and will always be Christ Jesus that men despise. Those who are void of the truth that only comes through Christ, serve their father the devil, and share in his hatred of the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world.

Isaiah prophesizes of a people that would know the new law of Christ and it would be in their hearts and minds. Those who follow the New Testament law of Jesus are not under the Old Testament law , and at the last day receive redemption at the second coming of Jesus.

Isa 51:11 Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy [shall be] upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.

 under the old testament law

This is the second gathering of the true Israel of God. This is the church of Jesus Christ, and is a future prophecy yet to happen.

James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

We are not under the old testament law of bondage

We are not under the old testament law of bondage, but the law of liberty which is in  Jesus Christ our Messiah. The covenant of Christ was established upon better promises (Heb 8:6).

James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well.

When we bear one another’s burdens, we fulfill the law of Christ (Gal 6:2).

Six of the commandments under the old law were unto doing no harm to others. The commandment of Loving others is much greater than these.

The second commandment of the new the law of Christ is fulfilled in this; thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself (Gal 5:14). This was not realized by most under the Old Testament law, as it was spiritually discerned.

Gal 5:4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

We are not under the Old Testament law, but the law of Christ’s grace. To claim to be under the Old Testament law when we have access to the new law of Christ, is self righteousness unto death.

Gal 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

Those of the religions of judaism and christianity, who claim to be under the Old Testament law do not have a personal relationship with the creator Christ the King.

To claim righteousness by attempting to follow the works of the law without faith was and still is dead works.

Gal 5:18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

We need to be led by the spirit of truth, which declares that we are not under the Old Testament law of bondage, but the law of Christ wherein we can have liberty.

Gal 6:15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

Again it is not at all about religious persuasions or doctrines of men, but a new life in Christ. This can only be understood by those who are taught of the Holy Spirit, which is given to the faithful who come to Jesus as little children.

Gal 6:16 And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

The Israel of God represents all believers who are in Christ.

    destined are we justified by Jesus Christ or not??

    How are we justified — by Christ’s death – by His blood! If you say otherwise you are a liar.

    Please explain how we can then be justified by the Law — Law that CAN ONLY condemn us?

    NONE CAN NOR EVER HAVE BEEN JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW— THE LAW ONLY POINTS OUT OUR SIN.

    Under the Law of Moses and after the sacrificial law was added — BECAUSE OF SIN – that added “sacrificial LAW” was the school master that pointed to the need for the sacrifice of our Passover who – only – could “JUSTIFY” us.

    Those of old looked to animal sacrifice for “justification”, and that is exactly what Paul is talking about.

    This is what you wrote:

    “Jer 31:33 But this [shall be] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.”

    “This passage refers to the whole house of Israel which includes all believers in Christ. Those that truly embrace the words of the Lord Jesus are most definitely not under the Old Testament law.’

    Destine –Please understand — the word LAW in Jeremiah 31: 33 is the Hebrew word TORAH!

    Why is God putting the Torah Law which according to you we are no longer to obey – in our hearts and minds?? And what does that mean?? It means making the “TORAH LAW our NATURE. The TORAH LAW is the Divine HOLY righteous Nature of our Father and we are to become perfect just like our Father.

    You and many like you have concocted the false “new law of Christ” by using the two great precepts found in the Torah, Love God and Love neighbor.

    Do you not understand those two Precepts are what Christ calls the Foundation of the Law and the Prophets.
    The Torah is founded upon those two great Commandments and the entire WORD of GOD, what we call the Bible, is founded upon the Torah.

    And the Torah is the sharp two edged sword which Jesus Christ used to defeat Satan after Christ’s 40 day and night fast — and you want to abolish that Great two edged Sword??

    That is beyond foolish – by the way the name of the two edges are “The Law” and the other “The Prophets”.

    Destined how do you twist the words of Paul below into saying we are not Under the Law? How is it you still can not understand, or simply refuse to understand what it is those that are justified are no longer UNDER?

    Those justified by the blood of Jesus Christ are no longer under the condemnation of the Law and that condemnation is DEATH. Destine I am no longer under the penalty of death as Christ paid that penalty for me, but I still am under the authority of my Father and His Son and the very same Law that is THEIR NATURE.

    Romans 13
    KJV
    8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

    NIV
    8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.

    NLT
    8 Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law

    9 For this, (6)Thou shalt not commit adultery, (7) Thou shalt not kill, (8)Thou shalt not steal, (9)Thou shalt not bear FALSE witness, (10) Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. Lev 19: 17

    9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,”a and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.

    9 For the commandments say, “You must not commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not covet.”a These—and other such commandments—are summed up in this one commandment:

    10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

    10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

    10 Love does no wrong to others, so love fulfills the requirements of God’s law.

    Paul is stating: if you live by the Law, by the Commandments you are showing love to your neighbor.

    Destine the 10 commandments show us exactly how to fulfill the two great commandments –

    And you are teaching others they are no longer to live by GOD’s HOLY LAW??? Wow can’t you understand what Christ says of you?

    • …Truthseeker what YOU are saying is that my infusion of the Holy Spirit, CAN’T be real. It is the most solidly real, Rock in the UNIVERSE.
      …No one is going to be able to help you….Your lack of humility before Christ, Is apparent in your belief that HE is not YHVH…..The Holy Spirit IS YHVH’s Spirit…Its free to those who humble themselves. Accept that Christ, the anointed one, is the “End all, and be all”, of what you believe is RELIGION.
      …You’re a very religious fellow and can’t accept that Jesus died to relieve you those religious obligations, you lean on, and have built your entire faith upon.
      …Religious thought implies, that You haven’t done enough, and need to do more, just to justify…yourself. Never once opening your heart to Christ….who remains an unknown quantity in your ‘philosophy’.

        there is more then one spirit in this world and only ONE is HOLY and that Spirit is the Father’s Spirit. It is that ONE spirit that raised Jesus Christ from the dead to immortal spirit life.

        My sister speaks in tongues and has lips appear on the wall telling her she is special.. She believes Christ was a nice man, but nothing special — maxxy she has an infusion of a spirit — I almost never see her — I want none of the spirit she has or it has her.

        I received that ONE Spirit of my Father by the laying on of hands.

        Did you receive the Father’s Spirit by the laying on of hands?

        Maxxy I despise religion — I am not religious I follow THAT WAY! That very narrow way.

        maxxy would you characterize Jesus Christ or the apostles as mild mannered and not willing to boldly speak the truth?? NO!

        That is the path I follow! I will boldly speak the truth. As time grows shorter I may even scream the truth.

        • My sister speaks in tongues and has lips appear on the wall telling her she is special.. She believes Christ was a nice man, but nothing special — maxxy she has an infusion of a spirit — I almost never see her — I want none of the spirit she has or it has her.

          =======

          And the movies of Charlton Heston.

          • You DO know that your Moishe there liked wearing dresses don’t you?

        • …Talking in tongues, is the devil’s work…probably a ‘possession’….You should stay away from her. You are very vulnerable to seducing spirits…you don’t believe Christ is God…YHVH.
