                 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

ON THE CROSS On the cross both sin and man died but Christ did not die. He was made sin for the body of sin to die in man and not in God. As God He cannot die, But as man He took on the body of sin on the cross for sin to die through his death. Roman 6: 6 knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed,( NOT THE BODY OF CHRIST ) that henceforth we should not serve sin.( 2Cor 5: 21) FOR HE HATH MADE HIM TO BE SIN FOR US, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him  On the cross man died with Christ for sins that man would be dead to sin and free from sin. Ro 6:8 Now IF WE BE DEAD WITH CHRIST, we believe that we shall also live with him: 2Tim2: 11 It is a faithful saying: FOR IF WE BE DEAD WITH HIM, we shall also live with him: Rom 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin  Because man died with Christ man became dead to sin. Rom 6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer ...

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...

ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM AND FOR HIM BUT ALL THINGS ARE NOT NEW CREATION. The word of God arrive the final destination when the word became flesh.   The word was not flesh otherwise God would be flesh. The word became flesh for man .The word was not totally man. He was the word but he was called man because He was in the flesh. If He was totally man, He would not have redeemed man. He was God called man. It was on the cross that He became totally man and was made sin. (2Cor 5:21)   JOHN 1: 14 AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, AND DWELT AMONG US, (AND WE BEHELD HIS GLORY, THE GLORY AS OF THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER,) FULL OF GRACE AND TRUTH COL 1: 19 FOR IT PLEASED THE FATHER THAT IN HIM SHOULD ALL FULNESS DWELL; COL 2: 9 FOR IN HIM DWELLETH ALL THE FULNESS OF THE GODHEAD BODILY. God came out of God and dwelled in the flesh so that God and man could    be one in the flesh. The ONLY thing that was before the beginning began in the beginning w...
