Are We Free to Ignore God’s Law if We Are “Under Grace”?
Romans 8:2 "For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus
from the law of sin and death."
The laws and commandments in the Bible could be compared to the
building of a house: The foundation of concrete and the structure of wood come
first, making the whole house stronger when natural forces come against it,
then comes the flooring, walls, ceiling, roofing, and finishing touches that
cover up the base, making it a house.
The old Covenant is the foundation that reveals sin but does not offer
salvation and is an unfinished work while the New Covenant does offer redemption
and a personal relationship with the Lord.
Can we say our faith is complete without a base to be built on or structures
to hold it up as many Christians do when they forsake the Old Testament, focusing
solely on grace, love, and forgiveness?
