~ SEEING BLINDLY~ There comes a spiritual blindness upon the one who is trying only to please God by the law of Moses...or any other type of works. To do so is to walk in carnality, pride and self-righteousness.. This will only bring a soul into misery and the yoke of bondage... It is was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. Gal 5:1 The law will never save us nor bring us closer to God as some may seem to think...no, it cannot and will not save ! It only manifests mans self-righteousness not Gods righteousness, as mans works in the flesh only bring about wrath and condemnation.. God gave us the plan of salvation in the New Covenant through His Son Jesus Christ... But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also a mediator of a better covenant which has been enacted on better promises. Heb 8:8 Therefore, mans boasting in his own obedience is nothing more than perfidious to the God of righteousness and the saving power of our Lord Jesus Christ.... We obtain the victory by the Fathers love and our Saviours blood.. Realizing because of Jesus death on the cross, that there is NO other name under heaven whereby man can be saved..Acts 4:12 Hope was sent from the heavenly sanctuary and God became flesh and dwelt among us..JN 1:14 Because Jesus name has been from all eternity, all whom are in Him have been registered in the Lambs Book of Life from the foundation of the world.. Rev 17:8 Before time we were engraved upon His nail scarred hands and He has borne us on His shoulders and placed us in His heart and so we have passed out of death into life.. Therefore we are in fact the * righteousness* of God... We now have a gracious and sympathizing High Priest..the Author and Finisher of our faith whom is able to perform in us what He has promised: ETERNAL LIFE... And being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform. Rom 4:21 *********************************
