THE DAILY LIFE OF A TRUE BELIEVER IS ALSO A DAILY FULFILLMENT OF THE LAWS OF OUR GOD.

-WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT THIS MATTER-
“Think not that I Am come to destroy the law, or the prophets; I Am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no way pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven”…..MATTHEW 5:1-19.

“What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay I had not known sin but by the law; for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, thou shalt not covet…wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just and good” ROMANS 7:7, 12.

“For all the law is fulfilled in one, even in this: thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself”…GALATIANS 5:14.

“Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid; yea, we establish the law”…Romans 3:37.

“And when they had appointed him (Paul) a day, there came many to him in his lodging, to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the LAW OF MOSES, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening”…ACTS OF THE APOSTLES 28:23.

-THE MESSAGE-
Men and brethren, it is important for believers world-wide to urgently acknowledge this truth: that Christ did not abolish the laws of God – He just fulfilled them. And having fulfilled them, He established a New Covenant – a new Covenant that goes on to register the same laws in the mind and spirit of whosoever would receive Him as Lord and Savior. This truth is revealed in the book of HEBREWS 8: 10. in the following words:.

”For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, saith the Lord: I will put My laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to Me a people”. And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, know the Lord: for all shall know Me, from the least to the greatest”

Brethren, every true believer is an Israelite of God by faith – by faith through Abraham, the symbolic father of all that believe in Christ. Yes, we are not Israelite by flesh, but we are the Israelite of God through Christ Jesus. And our capital is the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. Therefore, and according to the scripture in Hebrews 8:10, every true believer in Christ Jesus is a carrier of the laws of God, written, not on a tablet of stone, but on our fleshly hearts: not with the ink but with the blood of Jesus Christ. And the Holy Ghost Who lives in us and leads us the way we should go, even as believers, is also a Witness of this very thing. See HEBREWS 10:15-16.

Brethren, it is written that the just, that is, the believer, shall live by faith. This simply means that the life of a true believer is the life of a daily walk with God – as led by the Holy Spirit. This is what is called faith. And this faith only works by love. Therefore life of every true believer is a daily manifestation of the love of God in Christ. And we know by the scriptures that godly love is also the fulfillment of the laws of God. When believers are walking in love, they are fulfilling the laws of God, though unconsciously – even the very laws that are written in their hearts…See GALATIANS 5:14.

Brethren, it is not in any dispute that our salvation and justification in Christ Jesus are not by the works of the law, but entirely by faith through grace. That means that we are not saved by the good or bad things we did; rather we are saved by faith through grace. But after we are saved, the Bible says that we become laws unto ourselves. Our lives as true believers must begin to manifest the laws of God. Indeed, it is written that the laws of God are also a witness to our walk even as believers.

“But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets” ROMANS 3:21.

Brethren, what we just read simply means, that when we say we are believers in Christ, the laws of God must bear witness to this, even the prophets. This means, that when we claim to be believers, our daily lives must of necessity be a manifestation of the laws of God and even of the prophets. Christianity is by no means lawlessness, God forbid. Rather, true Christianity is a daily manifestation of the laws of God and of the doctrines of the prophets and of the apostles in the day to day lives of a believer – Jesus Christ anchoring as the Chief-Cornerstone!

Brethren, the fruit of the Spirit as laid down in GALATIANS 5:22 is indeed the laws of God summarized as fruit of the Spirit. They constitute the character of the Holy Ghost, the very character of our God. And every believer, indwelt by the Holy Spirit, should daily manifest this fruit. When our lives as believers bear witness to that fruit, we are invariably living out the laws of God. When we are manifesting the fruit of the Spirit as believers it means that we are living as Christ, even as our heavenly Father. This is the essence of salvation – this is the mystery of godliness – and this is the word of God.

Generally speaking, People of God, the New Testament Church is not supposed to teach the laws of God to true believers, even the righteous ones. Every true believer is a law unto himself or herself. The law is to be taught to those who walk in unrighteousness. The teaching of the law is not meant for the righteous, that is, for those who are saved and who are daily walking in the fruit of the Spirit. For as it is written:

“…the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for man slayers, for whore mongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for men stealer, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any thing that is contrary to sound doctrine”….1ST TIMOTHY 1:9-10. The law is made for those that live in sin even as believers.

But one of the terrible falsehood and deception being spread from some of our pulpits of today is as regards the definition of a righteous man or a righteous woman even in Christ Jesus. Because our righteousness in Christ came by faith, many have developed a rogue definition of this heavenly word called righteousness. No doubt, we become the righteousness of God by faith, but at the same time we must admit that we can only remain the righteousness of God not just by faith alone but also by our works also – for faith with works is dead. Brethren, a sinner is not a righteous man or woman, and a righteous man or woman is not a sinner. Whosoever was saved but is living in sin and compromise, that person is no longer the righteousness of God. Rather that person is now a sinner that needs urgent repentance. The truth of the matter is that if that person dies in that state, HE OR SHE WILL NOT MAKE HEAVEN AT LAST. This is the word of God.

Be it known therefore, to all believers world-wide, that any believer that is living in sin has fallen out of grace and is now living under the law. And when the Holy Ghost sends preachers to preach the law in the Church of Jesus Christ it is because many folks in the Church of today have fallen out of grace and are now living in sin. Whosoever calls himself or herself a believer but is manifesting the works of the flesh as enumerated in GALATIANS 5:19-21; has fallen from grace and is now living in sin even under the law. And that believer must of necessity be taught the laws of God. This is the word of God. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ DOES NOT COVER THOSE WHO CONTINUE IN SIN AFTER SALVATION.

Brethren, the primary reason for the appearance of the grace of our God is to bring salvation to folks - teaching folks to deny all ungodliness and worldly lusts, to live soberly, righteously and godly, even in the present world: causing them to continually look forward to that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ. See the Book of TITUS 3:11-13. Believers that are walking in daily righteousness are the ones that live by grace. All those that walk in one form of wickedness or the other and worldliness have slipped out of grace and are heading to eternal damnation if they fail to repent.

But, brethren, there is a point of no return. When a believer continues to live in sin and yet continues to justify himself or herself in such a state, he or she will soon slip into a reprobate mind; as is the case with many in today’s Church. And such also is the state of those who preach to believers to continue in sin that grace may abound. These false preachers are already lost and are irrecoverable. And satan is now using them to lure many to eternal damnation. They often speak great words about grace, but not the grace of Christ that leads to repentance. They are springing up all over the world and their doctrine is gaining grounds on a daily basis. And they have many followers, especially among believers with itching ears, those who are ready to follow any fellow who flatters them that sin after salvation has no eternal consequence. But they shall proceed no further.

Brethren, let us be mindful of this very truth – that whosoever must live righteously in this sinful world must face all manners of persecution. But do not be discouraged. Faithfully is He Who called you Who also will do it. Our God is equal to the task. I therefore charge all that truly love Christ and His appearing to remain steadfast in faith – looking up to our Master Jesus Christ, Who endured all manners of shame and mockery in hands of sinners and yet sinned not. And let your hearts rejoice in this very truth - that our darling Lord Jesus Christ is coming back sooner than we all can ever imagine.
