Lesson 3727

 (Lesson 3727)(04-02-22) Romans 7:5-6

    “For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death. But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.”

    One of the most important parts of today’s quote is, “But now we are delivered from the law".

Sadly, there are too many today who contend that we are to live strictly by the laws of the Jews and the ten commandments. However, the truth is to the contrary. 

    Jesus left us two different and “great” commandments by which we are to live our lives. We are to love God with all that we are, and we are to love our fellow man as we love ourselves. 

    If we simply have faith in Jesus Christ we will have fulfilled the requirements of all the old laws and prophets through the imputed righteousness of Jesus Christ.~
