I Know.

And there is no Love like it.

The measure of humility is a Truth that lies in stone.

He ask us to speak. Are you ready?

For those who have read the words in red from Christ there was a method to His madness, He intended the law to so devastate the Jews and send them into hopelessness at the inability to keep the law they would turn to Him. Instead they just assumed like most today that they were doing "good enough" and pressed on in their own strength and self righteousness and rejected Him. The job of the law is to condemn and it has saved no one. All those who cheer lead others on to greater effort are simply placing others and themselves under a curse. Amazing how many embrace the futility of the law and delight in the yoke of works.

The law is not inherently bad, in fact it expresses the perfect nature of God but we just can't keep it. Law is attractive because you don't need to be saved to participate.......anyone can keep some of the laws......

Grace hidden in the mind of God over the centuries is our present day hope, but faces an uphill battle.
