Page 93 - Laying Down the Law
P. 93

Do you believe you are a new creation? Do you see yourself as having died to the
              sin-enslaved person you were before Christ? Do you reckon yourself to be dead to sin?
              Do you perceive yourself to be “alive to God,” energized and enabled to live a life
              pleasing to Him? Have you entered into the realm of living where you can confess
              with Paul, “It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me?”
                    As long as Christians embrace the Mosaic Law, they will hear the voice of the
              guardian and schoolmaster speaking to them as sinners who must be restrained. They
              will be hindered from perceiving the new creation they have become in Christ.
                    We must perceive our union with Christ. We must see ourselves as spiritual men.
              The Mosaic Law keeps taking us back to life before Christ. The Law was given B.C.
              (Before Christ). The church is living a B.C. existence. Let us go forth into A.D.. It is
              A new Day.
