Correct?
So................. God's law changed.
No.
So it was the law
Then Jesus came, and died on your behalf.
The law remains
Why aren't you persecuted for breaking the law as a believer? Because Jesus literally died on your behalf.
The Law demanded a death for sin.
The law remains
Jesus had to die for you.
The law can not persecute a dead person. therfore believers in Chrsit are not free from the Law as a means to righteousness.
(That is the first 1/2 the resurection is the second 1/2)
Nothing changes. For everyone outside of Christ attonement is still subject to the Moral law of God. Which they can not keep, and will owe a death for their sins.
I have now read this 3 times and still don't get it.
Jesus died so Christians don't have to follow the rules?
So the 10 commandment no longer apply to Christians as Jesus died for them?
Sorry - but this is more than slightly insane.
Could you try to explain it again - I am sure you are not saying the above.....are you?
