                 WE ARE NOT UNDER THE LAW BUT UNDER GRACE 1
 (Eph 2:12-19)

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
 13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
 14 ¶ For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us 15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
 16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: {thereby: or, in himself}
 17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.
 18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

The law put the Jew in captivity.The law was not meant to draw man back to God but the law drew man farther away from God. But Christ brought the freedom we need to relate with God as our father.Those who are bent on obeying the laws of Moses can never be friends of God.The will only remain strangers.They will always see a reason to cry for mercy everyday and go back doing the same thing again because no man can actually keep the law of Moses.The law made man an enemy of God.The Law of Moses was for the Jew not for the Gentiles.The Gentiles were made for grace.The gentiles could only be accepted as part of the covenant through the faith in Christ. (Gal 3:13-14) 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:
 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.
There should have been no gentile participation in the covenant blessings without Christ.We should stop trying to keep the laws of Moses that Christ had fulfilled and abolished in His flesh when He died on the cross.Grace gives us advantage to enjoy all that Christ did for us that we could not had done anyways no matter how hard we try.So quit trying to fulfill the laws that was already fulfilled by Christ on the cross so that we could live by grace that runs through His veins.Accept Jesus into your life today and enjoy your live benefits as Heroes.You can never do it by yourself.
(Eph 2: 8) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God
GRACE IS THE FREEDOM TO SERVE GOD IN LOVE NOT WITH FEAR..It came as a result of the death of Christ.It is one of the things man cannot do for himself.
The law cannot make man right with God. (Ga 5:4 )Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
There is no other time to enjoy the grace that Christ procured for us but now.God made it so.Let us acceot it the way God designed it and work in line with His vision us through Christ.


Prayer

Father we thank you for the grace we have in Christ

WE ARE ABLE MINISTERS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT ( 2Cor 3: 3-6)  3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.  4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:  5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God  6 ¶ Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament ; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life We should function according to our description. We should give life not condemnation

                         YOU DO NOT BECOME A SAINT BECAUSE OF WORKS Many times believers have called those who teach the truth about benefits of Christ death, burial and resurrection as those who teach the diluted Gospel but in actuality, they are those teaching the undiluted Gospel. The Gospel is not the mind of men. It does not have to appear pleasing to any man’s hearing to be the truth. Christ came into this world to take away the sin of the world. And he did it by offering His body for sin to die in the flesh. John 1: 29 ¶ The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, WHICH TAKETH AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD. GAL 1: 4 WHO GAVE HIMSELF FOR OUR SINS, THAT HE MIGHT DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT EVIL WORLD, ACCORDING TO THE WILL OF GOD AND OUR FATHER. HEB 2: 17 WHEREFORE IN ALL THINGS IT BEHOVED HIM TO BE MADE LIKE UNTO HIS BRE...

A BELIEVR IS THE TRUE IDENTIY OF GOD. God was invisible until Christ manifested in the flesh so that man could see God in the flesh and relate with Him the way He truly is. God is not anything outside love.( John 15: 12-27) Christ was the physical manifestation of the spiritually real God John 4:24 GOD IS A SPIRIT: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. In the Old Testament the prophets walked with God because they could only relate with God based on the shadows of things to come. This is the reason no believer would ever like to be like Elijah or Moses. Those men never had the accurate nature on God. But the believer do not only walk with God , the believer walks in God. John 1: 18 NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD AT ANY TIME; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. John 10:30 I and my Father are one. John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: Romans 12:5 So w...
