12. "...To Make An End to Sins"; Mission Accomplished! |
12a. "The End of the Law"
There are two very important things that are true about the law of Moses, today.
- #1 Not one jot or one tittle of it has passed away, because it still applies to the unsaved.
The unsaved are those outside the kingdom of God who do not know Christ Jesus.
- #2 - Not one jot of it applies to those who- now in Christ are no longer under the law.
If you are in Christ Jesus, you are no longer under the Law of Moses,
as you are now under Grace. Under grace we are looked upon by our Heavenly Father in a completely
different manner. Covered by the blood of the LAMB who was slain, we are covered in the righteousness
of Christ, our sins are remembered no more and they are buried in the depts of the sea!
 Micah 7:19
He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
|
In the book of Romans, we find the clear and precise statement concerning those
who are in Messiah Yeshua, and the end of the law concerning them.
Romans 10:3-4
3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.
4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.
|
And the astounding fact is, that where there is no law, there is no sin.
Romans 4:14-15
14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:
15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.
|
Those who have been washed in the blood of the LAMB of God who taketh away
the sins of the world, believe just that. Our sins are remembered no more
but are cast into the depths of the sea.
|
12b. To What Extent Has Grace Made an End to our Sins?
Here is a verse that is not often spoken of, even among believers, but it is God's
word, it is the Bible and it is Holy Spirit inspired. In his first epistle
to the Church, the Apostle John wrote;
1st John 3:19
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
|
Those in Christ and filled with this Spirit wonder at this verse, but it reflects
the incredible power of the blood of Christ Jesus and the miracle of His indwelling
Spirit! When a person is born again (John 3:3) that is, born from above or born of
His Spirit, that Spirit of God which indwells the believer *is very God. Look at the
new creation that we are!
2nd Corinthians 5:7
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
|
The person described above is a new creature because he or she has been born of the Holy Spirit of God
and are His offspring. And of this miracle, Paul described the difference between the flesh
under the law and this new creation under the Spirit (Romans chapters 7 & 8) which are two
completely different existences.
Though sanctification is a process, as is the perfecting of the body of the Christ,
the day that Yeshua of Nazareth died on Calvary's Cross and said, "It is finished", He paid
for all of our sins. As a matter of fact, when Yeshua died, all of our sins
were future tense. Our sins are gone, they are forgotten, it is only we who
keep reminding Him of them. Yeshua has made an end of our sins.
Can the spiritually blind see this? Of course not, these things do not apply to
those in the world. They belong to those who are in and who can see (John 3:3) the kingdom
of God (now). The unbelieving look at Daniel 9:24 and deny the Jesus of Nazareth is the
Messiah, because they see the sins of the world. But those who know His
incredible forgiveness, have already experienced the replacement of the
law of sin and death with the law of the Spirit of life (Romans chapter 8).
