Acts | Chapter 15 Pt. V (The Laws of God bring Liberty to Us)

Morning Bible Study ~

The Law in was always meant to point us to Jesus Christ, show us the consequences of the penalty of sin, and help us and make us realize that we cannot possibly be our own savior. We needed the Messiah to come in human form and take that burden for us. The cost is for sin is that it does produce death, and it causes eternal separation from God. The penalty of sin is way greater than what we can compare to in natural terms. When we are obedient keep God's commandments, there is liberty in that because we are not made a slave to sin. So that's how the law brings liberty, the law of God, not necessarily the Law of Moses, but the laws of God do bring liberty to us as humans, because the penalty of sin is great. When you keep His commandments, that you are made free in that regard, because you're not entangling your own self into bondage. Now, the absolute freedom comes from the blood of Jesus Christ and accepting Him as your Lord and Savior and having his blood applied to your sins.
