1 | How is Christ the end of the law? | Rom 10:4 | wdc | 13027 | ||
Bill, Christ is the end of the law because He fulfilled the law. (Mat 5:17) Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. In His life, He kept all the requirements of the law the way God commanded them to be kept. In doing so, He is the end of law for righteousness, and for us. (2 Cor 5:21) For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. When we come to Him in faith, the righteousness of the law is imparted to us because of what He has done in His life and on the cross. Romans 8:3-4 (3) For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:(4) That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. This is why we can be accepted by God, not by what have done or can do, but by what Jesus did, and enter that by faith. Hope this helps. later...wdc |

"This is why we can be accepted by God, not by what have done or can do, but by what Jesus did, and enter that by faith." Well said! That's why Paul cited Hab. 2:4 in Rom. 1:17. |
