Seed for Feb 28

The Law was the school master to bring us to Christ. It was never intended to make the doer perfect. In fact the purpose of the Law was to show us to be lawless (law breakers). Where there is no Law there is no transgressor, so Paul said, without the Law, I lived, but the Law came, sin revived, and I died. What a profound statement. Why then do preachers think we can't live without "law"? Don't they know that they are just making us transgressors? Men and religions re-invent "law" and they rename it such things as "a standard" "holiness" or "sanctification," all crafty ways to make a person think that by keeping such they have been made righteous. The truth of the matter is, our righteousness was given to us freely, apart from the keeping of any religious law or ceremony. It is the gift of God, by grace, and freely given to whose ever will. It is a robe we wear, not something we do! Lying spirits have beguiled men into believing we can be made perfect by keeping the 10 Commandments. If we could not keep the first 10 how can we think now we can be made righteous by keeping new ones? The Truth will set you free. Don't be bound by man's efforts to be made righteous, but walk in the righteousness given to us as a robe from our Father. I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. It was given to me and I wear it.

Be Blessed,Billy and Jan
