Living UNDER the Law and Grace? No, but those who are by God's grace being sanctified will naturally submit themselves to God's moral law. As a Gentile, I was never part of the Mosaic Covenant. I was never under the Law of Moses, but as a human being I am held accountable for following God's revealed moral will, which is reflected in the Ten Commandments. Christ fulfilled the moral will of God perfectly for me, but it still serves as a standard for righteousness and I can gauge the level of God's sanctifying work in me by how well I am following his commandments. Read Romans 8:1-9 for the relationship between God's law and the Christian walk. Psalm 19 and Psalm 119 also reveal the usefulness of the law for the one saved by God's grace. --Joe! |
