law and grace 
There are two verses that shed light on this issue so we are forced to quote them at once: "For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ "(John 1:17). "For sin shall not have dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace" (Romans 6:14). The first verse shows us the great dispensational change that took place with the coming of Christ. The second shows the result of that change with respect to the believer. Under the new regime, the faithful receive free from the bondage of sin. In a sense, the law and grace are similar. We both have a very high standard, although in this the second exceeds the first. In all other respects, the law and grace are diametrically opposed. The law of Moses was given on Mount Sinai (Exodus 19 and 20). God then, who was barely known, since dwelling in thick darkness, explicitly stated his righteous and holy demands. If men obeyed, would be blessed, if they disobeyed fell under the solemn curse of the law (Galatians 3:10). The law, in fact, was shattered, and the curse earned prior to the time that the tables of stone reaches the people (Exodus 32). El capítulo siguiente nos dice cómo Dios trató en gracia con ellos. Bajo la ley no mitigada por la gracia, ellos debían haber perecido de inmediato. La gracia, por otro lado, significa que Dios se ha revelado plenamente a nosotros en su Hijo, y todas sus justas y santas demandas han sido satisfechas en la muerte y resurrección de Cristo, de modo que la bendición está abierta a todos. A todos los que creen se les otorga el perdón de pecados y el don del Espíritu Santo, de modo que hay poder para conformarlos a la norma, la cual, bajo la gracia, es nada menos que Cristo mismo. La ley y la gracia 2
The very essence of law is, therefore, demand, whereas the essence of grace provision. Under the law, God, as it is presented to us saying: "Dame, ríndeme your love and obedience due!". Under grace, however, he is presented with hands fully extended, saying, "Here, receive my love and saving power!" The law says 'Do and live', says Grace "Live and do." Now the believers, as we have seen, we are not under law but under grace. Let's see how this happened. Read Galatians 4:4-5: "But when the fullness of time God sent his Son, born of woman, born under law, to redeem those under law, that we might receive adoption as sons. "What caused the change is, in a word, redemption. But that involved the death of the Redeemer . He must be a curse for us by dying on the cross (Galatians 3:13). For this reason the believer is entitled to be regarded as "dead to the law" (Romans 7:4). He died in the death of Representative The Lord Jesus Christ. The law did not die on the contrary, His Majesty was never taken higher up that when Jesus died under the curse. Two things, however, happened. First, once the law was magnified and its curse born, God suspended His wrath and grace proclaimed to all mankind. Second, the believer died to the law in the person of his great Representative. He, to use the language of Scripture, died to be "of another, which rose from the dead" (Romans 7:4), ie, it is now under the control of another power, and that power lies in Person: the Son of God resurrected. With these two things relate two facts:
First, the law is the basis for the justification of the sinner. He is justified by grace through the blood of Christ, by faith. This is explained in detail in Chapters 3 and 4 of the Epistle to the Romans. Second, the law is the rule of life for the believer. Christ is their rule of life. Our links are with Christ and not with the law, as we have seen the law and grace 3
(Romans 7:4). This is perfectly demonstrated in Chapters 3 and 4 of the Epistle to the Galatians. The Galatian Christians had started well. Were converted under the preaching of the Gospel of the grace of God through the apostle Paul. Then came the harmful Judaizers "who were" zealous for the law "- and taught circumcision and keeping the law. The Galatians fell just into this trap. Paul's response is virtually this: that the law was a temporary system (Galatians 3:17), added to highlight the transgressions of Israel (v. 19), and to act as schoolmaster "to Christ" (v. 24 ), as it should be translated. Once Christ came, that redemption was fulfilled, and that the Spirit was given, the believer leaves the position of minor child, or the servant, he might be a son of the house of God, being well placed in the free grace (Galatians 4:1-7). Since the platform of grace, which have been stationed, is much higher than the law, we have left, go back, if only in thought, one to the other is falling. "Ye are fallen from grace" is what the apostle tells them who do this (Galatians 5:4). The parable of the prodigal son illustrates this point. His thinking did not rise higher above the law when he said: "Make me like one of your hired servants" (Luke 15:19). However, it was received in full grace, and, once inside, he was given the place of son. Suppose, however, a few days later, claiming to want to retain the affections of the father and the place and privileges granted so freely, he begins to work as a house servant, rigidly conforming to the laws that must be met domestic servants; What then? He thus had "fallen from grace", and would sadly afflicted his father's heart, as this would have been tantamount to a vote of "confidence" in him. How important, then, for us, "claimed to have a heart of grace!" (Hebrews 13:9). The law and grace 4
What about the idea that the free gift in order to help us keep the law, so we go to heaven that way? Simply that this is totally opposed to Scripture. First, the idea that keeping the law permits a person to go to heaven is a fallacy. When the interpreter of the law asked the Lord: "Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" he was referring to the law and after giving a correct summary of their demands, Jesus replied: "You have answered ; do this and live "(Luke 10:25-28). Do not say a word about going to heaven. Life on earth is the reward for keeping the law. Second, the grace was introduced, not to help us keep the law, but to bring us salvation from the curse by another person who took the last for us. Galatians chapter 3 shows this very clearly. If, however, require further confirmation, read Romans chapter 3, and note that when the law has convicted a man and has to close his mouth (v. 9-19), grace, through justice, justified "without law" (v. 20 - 24). Read also 1. Timothy. The law was made to condemn the wicked (v. 9-10). The gospel of grace presents Christ Jesus who "came into the world to save sinners" (v. 15), not, note well, to help sinners to keep the law so they can save themselves. If the law is not made for the guard and we are well justified, why then was given? Let the Scripture itself answers: "But we know that whatever the law says, it says ... that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may become guilty before God "(Romans 3:19)." But the law was introduced so that sin might abound "(Romans 5:20)." So what is it the law? It was added because of transgressions "(Galatians 3:19). The law and grace 5
The law, like every other institution of God, succeeded in significantly its purpose. It was perfectly capable of declaring guilty and close the mouth of the religious rather stubborn and presumptuous. Only grace can save him. Have you set aside the grace time for the law, and annulled for ever? Grace, personified in Jesus, has been the curse of the broken law, thus redeeming his curse to all who believe (Galatians 3:13). In addition, he has redeemed us from being under the law itself, and put all of our relationships with God on a totally new platform (Galatians 4:4-6). Now if the believer is no longer under law but under grace, we should not assume that the law is rescinded or set aside. His Majesty has never been held up when He suffered as a substitute just under its curse, and crowds recede from terror to his indictment in the Day of Judgement (Romans 2:12). What damage occurs in a Christian who takes the law as a rule of life? Great damage. In doing so, the Christian "falls from grace" (Galatians 5:4), because the grace not only saves, but also teaches (Titus 2:11-14). By living by keeping the law, the Christian God's standard discount. Christ, not law, is the norm of the believer. It also seizes power and a wrong motivation. Distrust one can try, but unsuccessfully, to keep the law, and attempts to regulate the power of the "flesh" within him. But the Holy Spirit is the power that controls the flesh and conforms the believer to Christ (Galatians 5:16-18). Finally, he does violence to the relationship that is by the grace of God. Even if a child is free to the home and heart of the Father, he insists placed under the code of rules formulated to be enforced on the grounds of the home! Law and grace 6
there nothing wrong with this? We think so. If you teach that Christians are not under the law, will not that lead to all sorts of evils? Would in the case of a person professing to be Christian without being born again, or show remorse, without being under the influence of grace and without having received the gift of the Holy Spirit. Since no one is a Christian without these features, the case takes a different hue, and reasoning in the manner suggested merely to show a deplorable ignorance of the truth of the Gospel. The argument comes down simply to this: that the only way Christians can live holy lives is keeping the law, as if they had only a kind of nature, pig, and the only way to keep them out of the mud was with sticks. The truth is that even though the meat is still a believer, he also has the new nature, and it identifies God. The believer has the Spirit of Christ as a guide, and hence can be safely placed under grace, because after all is the grace that dominates. If people want to contend with this, their struggle is against the Scripture cited at first. "Sin shall not have dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace" (Romans 6:14). Unconverted men may try to use grace as an excuse for evil, but that's no reason to deny the truth stated in that verse. What truth is there in the Bible of the evil men who have not abused? "Scripture indicates how the grace keeps a believer in order, so you can live a life pleasing to God? Indeed. Titus 2:11-15 provides the answer: The law and grace 7
"For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, waiting for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. That speak, and exhort and rebuke with all authority. Anyone despise you. "In Christianity, not only saving grace, he shows, and what effective teacher turns out to be! She fills our heads cool rules and regulations but submit our hearts under the influence of God's love . We learn what pleasing to God as is manifested in Jesus. And, having the Holy Spirit, we begin to live a sober, just and pious. There is a difference between the children of a family kept in order by fear of the scourge because of his misconduct, and those living in a home where love reigns. The order may reign in the first case, but it will end in a large explosion before the children come in years. In the second case, there is not only obedience, but also a joyful response to the parent's wishes, the result of the corresponding emotions. God governs their children on the basis of the principle of love, and not on the principle of punishment with the rod. May we live our Christian lives with the happy consciousness this! Hi FB NOTES N. T. - Given the current proliferation of various movements Judaizers, we can add some key points related to this theme: law and grace 8
(1) The law was not given to the Gentiles but the people of Israel. Romans 9:4 says, "who are Israelites, including the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, worship and the promises." The Apostle Paul made it clear that the Gentiles, in contradistinction to the Jews who were under the law, "no law" (Romans 2:14. Compare Romans 3:19 and 1. Corinthians 9:20-21). Leviticus 26:46 makes it perfectly established this point: "These are the statutes, ordinances and laws, which the Lord between him and the children of Israel at Mount Sinai by Moses."
(2) Romans 10:4 states that "the end (telos) of the Act is Christ." This verse has given rise to various opinions. One of them says that Christ is the fulfillment of the law, namely, that Christ came to fulfill the law (Matthew 5:17). While it is true that Christ fulfilled the law, not what is said in this context. There is no valid reason to confuse telos (end) with pleroma (compliance). Others take teloscon the sense of "object" or "purpose." But the simple meaning as determined by the context, is that of "completion", ie that Christ put an end or ended with the law (from 9:30, where the law is contrasted with faith, justice one with the righteousness of God.) 2. Corinthians 3:7, is referred to the Ten Commandments (engraved in stones) specifically as a "ministry of death" (in verse 6 says that "the letter kills"), and v. 9 is described as a "ministry of condemnation," in contrast to the "ministry of the Spirit" (v. 8), which gives life instead of death, and is also described as "ministry of justification." The commandments written on stone tablets, then were abolished and replaced by the "ministry of the Spirit." Galatians 6:2 reveals that the law of Moses was replaced by "the law of Christ": "Carry each other's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ." This is the law for us Christians, and not the law of Moses, because although the latter was the law of God, and always will be the measure with which God deals with hombrenatural "He is in this context with those live in the Spirit, and the law of Sinai was never given the spiritual man, but a people in the flesh, the old man, Israel. The Mosaic law is the natural man and, therefore, with what is wrong with him. Who can tell the new man: "Thou shalt not kill" or "Thou shalt not steal"? Does the new man has ever committed adultery or lust? The very notion itself is marked on that whole theory is false. The law of the Ten Commandments was never directed at all the new man. The new man can make use of it, but this is totally different from taking it as the language that expresses their own responsibility before God. "The law of Christ" is not legal rules. She is in contrast to the law of law and grace 9
Moses, which dealt with the man in the flesh, while the law of Christ is the new man living in the Spirit and who should walk in the Spirit, but also has the old nature and should therefore be strengthened in new eyes "on Jesus." Christ was always occupied by others. Take the law given at Sinai is demanding to have God as a sinner condemned. And God was manifested in Sinai as "Father." The law of Sinai, then, was given to the rebellious nation of Israel and blame, demanding perfect obedience from her. Now a "new covenant" has been introduced, which means that the former was abrogated by the new. (3) The Mosaic Law is a unit. The men try to divide what the Scriptures call "the law" (with article defined) in various parts or "laws" (ceremonial, moral and judicial), but we insist, if we consider the law theoretically from several points of view, all the Bible regards the Mosaic law as an indivisible unit. If ceremonial or moral, is not important, because we, as Christians, we are not "under law but under grace." We are saved by faith in Christ, not by the works of the moral and ceremonial law. It is true that the moral law must condemn the sinner to a greater degree than ceremonial. For a Gentile, the fact of being circumcised, as in the case of the Galatians, means giving grace, losing to Christ and come to be indebted to the whole law (Galatians 5:3). But Bible insists that the law is one, and break any part of it, is to break the whole law. Santiago is clear on this point: "If you really keep the royal law according to scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself, ye do well, but if you show favoritism, you sin and are convicted by the law as offenders. For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of all. He who said, 'Do not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, but because I have become a transgressor of the law "(James 2:8-11). All law should be saved, "not add the word which I command you, nor diminish from it, but keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you "(Deuteronomy 4:2). We can talk of" moral law ", but Scripture does not use that language but this is part of the law, which is one.
(4) Antinomianism. It is commonly known as "antinomianism" is evil to make a pretext of freedom for malice (and the Scripture know that meat is perfectly capable of doing), that is, natural law reasoning and grace
10
of mind (Lacking the biblical basis) believe that if we kept the law (the Ten Commandments), then we would be "antinomian" and would "freedom" to do what is pleasing to the flesh, and that the only way to avoid this is by keeping law. However, this reasoning we saw that fails to make Christ (but of the Mosaic law) the substance of the moral and doctrinal teaching everything you need a Christian, as revealed in Scripture. Every Christian should walk according to the precepts of the New Testament and also extract with discernment, and in light of the New ever, all the divine light for walking on land, anywhere in Scripture. Romans 6:14 - "You are not under the law "-is portrayed at times with the idea that, being under grace, but we are freed from the rigorous demands of the law. The grace thus becomes a kind of law mitigated, it would be just what would please meat, or a law prescribing but has no power to condemn, which is antinomian in principle, as it leads to moral relaxation. This is produced by mixing law and grace, which destroys the true character and The scope of both. The truth is that Christ redeemed those who believe being under the law of the curse of it, but he never reversed the curse of the law. Our blessing is by faith so that they may be by grace. But law, as the Scripture says, not of faith. Just as we were justified by faith, we walk by faith well, "because we are not under law but under grace." He who refrains from murder simply because the law prohibits the killing, is a wicked man, not a believer. For those who read English, you can download a comprehensive study on the subject:
