Law of the Spirit creates realities that are true as we consider two worlds framed by the word of God. Spirit of adoption is established on the foundation of God which is, 'the earth abides forever'. God a Spirit has made the earth made to appear and in terms of physical realities, that in the beginning the earth was without form and void; and in its fulfillment it is the Son in whom it pleased the Father to invest his fulness. This body of Christ has glory, and it is called the light of the Lamb.
God freely gave his Spirit. So indwelling Spirit guides a believer unto all truth and gives him glory of the word to work to perfection. Thus Jesus Christ in his Ascension gave us the earnest of our inheritance," until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory." (Ep.1:14) This is the Spirit of Adoption and the Law of the Spirit assures us that it is so. " Whereby we cry, Abba, Father./The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God." For this reason Jesus taught us, "And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." (Matt.23:9). This is the Law of the Spirit and fathers after the manner of flesh are appointed to serve us while we are yet children.
Beatitudes drive home 'this one father in heaven' idea so when we are struck in one cheek we are called to turn the other as well to testfy this spirit of adoption; we similarly walk extra mile if it could put the weaker brother at ease. "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;/Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ."(Col.3:23-24)
We are no longer debtors to the flesh. "For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live./For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God."
