Seed for July 11

The Law of Life in Christ Jesus is a "natural law". Just as birds fly by the law of life in them, so we are able to live a life will pleasing to God, by the law of Life in us. As Paul said it is no longer I, but Christ in me, who both wills and does the work. Our confidence is in Him, and the law of Life, and not in what man can do for God. Religion = man doing for God. Grace = God doing for man. Religion is a hard taskmaster keeping you busy with ritual and traditions, ever striving to keep God happy. Grace says that God is well pleased with the sacrifice of Christ, and imputes the righteousness of Christ to us freely. The law of Life is as free working and as real as the law of gravity. We have been set free to enjoy the liberty of Christ Jesus, the Law of life working in us. Be blessed
