The Law of Sinai and The Law in Zion

The Law of Sinai and The Law in Zion
The difference between the law at Sinai and the law of God written on the heart of Christ’s witness is this: the law at Sinai centers the doing on man, saying, “Do this and live”; the law of God written on the heart centers the doing on Christ saying, “Christ has finished it!” This is the message that makes Christs people willing to believe and testify of Him (Heb 10:9, 10; 14-18.)
The law is doing just what it is supposed to do when it makes me to see that what I want to do, I don’t do.
The law is doing just what it is supposed to do when it makes me see that the sin which I hate is the very thing I do. The law was not given to make me do good. It was not given to use as ruler to measure a pretense of goodness in me. God gave the law to shut my mouth (Romans 3: 19.) Thanks be unto God, by faith in Christ Jesus I have established the law, am not under it but am led by the Spirit of God (Romans 3: 31; 6: 14; Galatians 5: 18.) I consent unto the law that it is good. Clay Curtis.
