The Law given to Israel is dead

 Colossians 2:14 “ Wiping out the handwriting in ordinances [ the law ], which was against us, which was contrary to us; and He has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.”

For women only *

What does this mean?  If Christ has nailed the law to the cross; for Christians to pick it back up is heresy.  

Nailing the law to the cross of Christ  = crucifying the law.  

The law is dead.

The path to God is no longer trying to be obedient to laws and ordinances ( which is impossible to do), - but following Christ.

Christ has opened the curtain separating us from God. There He is!  But only if you repent and turn from your sins and accept Christ as you Savior and helper.  The law is replaced by freedom to live a life of obedience which is easy to do if we (Christians) slow down and follow the guidance within our hears of the Triune God.  The Living God.

On my own:

Law – fail – Law – fail – Law – fail

With Chris in me:

Christ – Success – Christ – Success - Christ - Success – and never ending Joy

Christ has taken the Law which we do not have the power in ourselves without Christ to obey and moved it out of our way.  Hallelujah!

Phil 4:13  “ I can do all things [what ever He asks] through Christ who strengthens me.”  Including living a life free from sin.

How earth shattering and monumental the sacrifice of Jesus was.  We must not dishonor His sacrifice by continuing to sin.

Matthew 27: 50-51  “ And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up His Spirit. 51)  And behold, the veil [curtain] of the temple was split in two from top to bottom [ Note:  TOP to bottom], and the earth was shaken and the rocks were split.”

This sacrifice was for you.

If you have not received Christ as your Savior, you can do that today. Pray a prayer to God and repent of your sins which have separated you from Him, and believe into the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the ONLY way to make things right with God.

May God bless you,
