Amplification on Mt 5:19 - Lawkeeping
Deborah-Leigh:
Hello Arion
You have some wonderful insights and truths to consider in this thread.
You asked:
--- Quote ---what exactly is Jesus saying about doing and teaching the law?
--- End quote ---
Obeying the literal law through works of the flesh resting on the approval of man for the gratification of endorsement, support, sanction, agreement and authorization, confirmation, proof or verification - is death.
The spiritual law that Jesus is referring to is the law of the Spirit that means being, doing and having belief in the faith OF Christ. Christ Himself decides when and how He enables us to live, move and have our being in Him.
Rom 7:6 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.
Rom 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Act 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
