Self-righteousness through dead works and ultimately deception and denial of the Faith
The new law of Christ represents our Lord’s plan and purpose for our lives. Understanding and following this New Covenant is of the utmost importance if we are to inherit everlasting life. The passages below elaborate on this New Law, but also contain a strong warning to all who insist on self-righteousness through dead works and ultimately deception and denial of the Faith.
Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
The New Law Of Christ is the only available option
Gal 2:21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.
The verse above is of no consequence for those wrapped up in the deception of babylonian talmudism, aka judaism. It should however be of grave concern to one who claims to be a Christian.
Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or the Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
Few are able to comprehend the significance of what Jesus revealed, when He declared, I am not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it. The self righteous hypocrites will focus on the least important part of this passage, as a pathetic excuse to suggest that the Old Testament laws are still in play. This verse is yet another parable to the unlearned, who are without faith, that pretend to be justified by the law that was given unto Moses.
Luke 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
Jesus did not destroy the law but was the fulfillment of the prophetic words in them regarding Himself. All that believe in Christ, are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses (Acts 13:39). Furthermore in the rest of Mathew chapter five, continuing on until the end of chapter seven, Jesus establishes His New Covenant law which clearly replaces the old law given to Moses.
2 Cor 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
The law was our instructor to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by our faith in Him. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under the old law, but have in fact been redeemed from the curse therein through Christ. All who are in Christ are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise (Gal 3:10-14, 21-29).
Matt 7:26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
Those who set about to establish their own righteousness through the works of the law, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. Christ is become of no effect unto those who claim to be justified by the law, as they are fallen from grace (Gal 5:4, Rom 10:3-4).
Luke 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
The New Law of Christ foretold in the Old Testament
Rom 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.
John 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
None were justified by the law of Moses, but all can be justified by the new law of Christ.
The judaizers would have you believe that they are justified by the old law which is a blatant lie, and many gullible Christians buy into this false teaching as well (Acts 15:5-11).
The problem for many religious people, is self-righteousness unto dead works. No one can be justified by the old law, as the new law of Christ is the only option available.
Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
The righteousness of God without the law, is another mystery to those who are blind to the gospel of the new law of Christ.
Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
So go ahead and boast in your law of dead works, we who are in the Faith will boast in the new law of Christ.
Rom 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
Rom 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
We establish the new law of Christ through our faith in Him.
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
We are not to mix the Old Testament Law, that did not have the power to set us free, with the new law of Christ that does.
The New Law of Christ is His plan and purpose for our lives
We are not justified by the works of the old law, but by our faith in the new law of Christ.
Rom 4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
Through faith in Christ we can be declared righteous. But to attempt to follow…
