Bible Discussion Thread

then what did Christ die for? Was it for naught? The bible clearly tells us that Christ came not to abolish the law but to uphold it or establish it. The law reveals our sin, if not for the law how would we know sin? Jesus came to destroy sin NOT the law nor did he die so that we, his children should continue living in it(sin). The bible clearly says that faith produces works not the other way around. As I said, love is the law and with perfect love, by the indwelling spirit, you and myself can and should keep the law perfectly, if indeed the spirit is in us. "My will is that they may be sanctified wholly" If God's will is to sanctify wholly, should not we determine to attain that which he desires for us? To live, is to live for Christ, as we cannot serve 2 masters. One master is to sin and the other to Christ. What is Christ but perfect therefor "be ye perfect as your father in heaven is also perfect."
One final thought, why would we shun that which is good? why should we say no to holiness and yes to sin? "Shall we sin because of grace? Certainly not! We establish the law through Christ which strengthen us." I will choose the gift which Christ himself promised, perfect love cast out all fear or sin. Thank God!
