The Daily Word of Righteousness
Not Under the Law but Under Grace, #26
And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. (Acts 13:32,33)
But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: (Acts 24:14)
And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers: (Acts 26:6)
Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers: (Romans 15:8)
Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. (I Peter 1:12)
Can you see from the above that the new covenant is a continuation of the old and not a new Divine approach to the salvation of man?
It is taught by Christians that on the basis of belief in Christ the Church is kept in a state of righteousness and holiness. One day God will call the Church to Heaven where it will abide in Paradise, somehow being changed magically into the moral image of Christ.
As for the Kingdom of God that is to come to earth, the doing of God's will in the earth, Christian teachers leave this for the Jews (whether Christian Jews or secular Jews we do not know).
Current Christian doctrine is unscriptural, inconsistent, illogical, and mythological. It is time for a remnant of believers, both Jewish and Gentile by race, to return to the truth of God's Word. There is no Gospel apart from moral transformation. The current teaching is a lie, a delusion of monumental proportions.
And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. (I John 2:3-5)
God always has, does now, and always will require righteousness, moral purity, and obedience on the part of all of His creatures. The eternal moral law can never be changed in the smallest detail. The soul that transgresses shall die. This always is true. Any change in the law of sin and death would be a change in God Himself. Any change in God would be the ultimate disaster, and every creature of God, angelic and human, could then wish for nothing better than extinction.
Whether under conscience, the Law of Moses, or the new covenant, righteousness is required. Pure moral behavior is required. Obedience to God is required.
The difference between the old covenant and the new covenant is not in a change of requirements, but in the amount of Divine enablement given to make the change from sin to righteousness possible.
To be continued.
