Galatians 3

It is not a new thing-just as the Galatians were captured by a spell. Many Christians today are caught under the very same spell. The enemy will never change his tactics because far too many of us continue to fall for his tactics. We read and we read that we are no longer under the law; yet we are still very legalistic. The law will never win a lost soul to JESUS and the law will never keep our dearly loved brother and sister in CHRIST JESUS. As a matter of fact it’s us that drive out our beloved brothers and sisters away from attending church because of legalism and judging. The LORD JESUS deals with us through grace and mercy and we are to do the very same. Did the law save you or was it what you heard in the Good News about JESUS that saved you? We are powerless against sin; the Holy Spirit is powerful and the goal is always the LORD CHRIST JESUS. The FATHER supplies the Holy Spirit who works signs and miracles through mankind. Is it done because you obey the Ten Commandments and the law or trust and have faith to the promise? We all have an account; when faith is deposited it is credited for us as righteousness-that’s our return. He believed in Adonai, [the LORD GOD] and HE credited it to him as righteousness. {Gen. 15:6 CJB}

True children of Abraham trust and are faithful in the LORD JESUS; Abraham has children all over this great planet. “and by you all the families of the earth will be blessed.”{Gen.12:3}

Trusting and being faithful causes us to be partakers of Abraham’s blessing. If anyone desires to continue in trusting and having faith in the Ten Commandments and the law you are cursed. “A curse on anyone who does not confirm the words of this Torah (book of the law) by putting them into practice.” All the people are to say, ‘Amen!’ [Deuteronomy 27:26 CJB]

No one is righteous by the LORD GOD in legalism. “Look at the proud: he is inwardly not upright; but the righteous will attain life through trusting faithfulness. {Habakkuk 2:4}; “There is no one righteous, not even one! No one understands, (Romans 3:10 CJB)

Those who are righteous attain life by trusting and being faithful in the LORD CHRIST JESUS. Legalism is not based on trusting and faithfulness on the misuse of the following text.  You are to observe my laws and rulings; if a person does them, he will have life through them; I am Adonai [the LORD GOD] {Leviticus 18:5 CJB}

JESUS redeemed us from the curse of the law. JESUS is the promised seed of Abraham. “I am establishing MY covenant between ME and you, along with your descendants after you, generation after generation, as an everlasting covenant, to be GOD for you and for your descendants after you. (Genesis 17:7 CJB)

I have an observation and a question for those of you who want to hold on to the Ten Commandments and the law so tightly. The Ten Commandments came four hundred and thirty years [430] after Abraham and yet the LORD GOD credited him to be a righteous man and gave him the promise. What was his faith and trust in righteousness based on if he did not have the Ten Commandments and the law? Abraham trusted and was faithful to the LORD GOD concerning anything and all things that the LORD GOD spoke to him about; especially the LORD JESUS. The Ten Commandments and law was to show our need for a Savior-no one was or is able to keep the entire law or Ten Commandments. The legal part was not able to provide life then or now; if it was all mankind would be righteous in them. No one is righteous apart from the LORD CHRIST JESUS; we are imprisoned in subjection to the system from perverting the commandments and the law. The commandments and law acted as a custodian until JESUS came. Although JESUS has already come and abolished the works of the law; many are still under the commandments and law because they have not yet invited JESUS to be the LORD and Savior of their lives. Then and only then will people become children of the most high GOD. We must have pure trust and faith in HIS SON; the LORD JESUS. We are all one in the LORD JESUS we are not male or female; we are Abrahams heirs according to the promise that the LORD GOD gave to Abraham. http://amfbem.me
