The Law And Grace. Part 1 by Charlesberry(m): 8:50am On Oct 23, 2015
There have principally been two dispensations in God’s relationship with man and these are the dispensations of Law and Grace, Works and Favour, The Old Covenant and The New Covenant. God did not give the Law until Exodus 20.
Before God gave the Law in Exodus 20, men were sinning but their sins were not being counted against them because they were not breaking any Law and that’s why Romans 5:13 clearly states that for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
“In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.” Hebrews 8:13
The Law is simply a list of regulations, rules, dos and don’ts about what we have to do in order to please God and you had to keep all of them without breaking any. We need to understand that man will always break God’s laws. There was just one law in the Garden of Eden and man broke, how much more the Ten Commandments and the Six Hundred and Three sub laws under them which many of us don’t even know.
The Law was not sinful. Romans 7:7. The Law was good, holy and just according to Romans 7:13 but it had no power to make anyone good, holy, just and without sin. In view of the inability of the Law to achieve its purpose, God made Jesus to fulfill the Law for us according to Romans 10:4 and then abolished it completely; He made it obsolete and introduced Grace. You are an Icon.
Action Plan: - I suggest you read all the letters of Apostle Paul. The more you read them, the more you will understand even the Old Testament.
Declaration: - Thank You Lord because I am not under the Law.

Good morning and have a blessed day ahead

Law and grace, two utmost contradictory ideology in the bible. First of, you claimed you are happy that you're not under the law but you actually is. Grace is a nonsensical word in the Christian context.

A god issued out laws and later reverse his azz,then Issued out grace. How could you talk about undeserved favor to an intentional and even unintentional crime. You're directly paving way for more crime and undeserved grant to more criminal acts.

But the said god can still punish people infinitely for a finite crime.

Logic 101.
