Finn, invalidating Law as basis for judgement allows the forgiveness that comes with a change of heart and restores that "new man" to community. It all works together, not differently. Christ's victory was over sin AND death.

Yes, they were handed down from God in the Scripture.

Jesus said , 'Verily I say to you, if ye may not be turned and become as the children, ye may not enter into the reign of the heavens;. In other words unless you humble yourself to the point where you are a in the state of early learning where you can be re educated about all things about God you will never enter into the reign of the kingdom.

Humble, yes. Re-education, no. The Scripture is the truth of God and God is not a liar. All that He has said is truth. God will never contradict His Word.

Jesus was sent by God to fulfill the Law, which is the manifestation of God's perfect justice. (See Romans 3:25) Just as the perfect lamb was required for forgiveness of sins under the Law, so too was Jesus the perfect lamb to cover the sins of those who would believe with faith.
