FAITH REPLACED THE LAW

Galatians 3:25

"Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law." NIV

"But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster." KJV

Before Christ gave His life, tearing down the curtain that kept us separated from the throne of God, all we had to guide us was the Law. The Law was of sorts a tour guide to show us how to stay on the narrow road to God. But Christ's death and resurrection made reliance on the law unnecessary because a direct and open relationship with God Almighty was made available. Now we live under the law of Love. Since there are no limits or boundaries to love, we are free to live in the boundless love of Christ.

Heavenly Father, there is no way to ever repay the great gift of Love you gave us except to give you our hearts and lives to live in that marvelous Love and bring others to share in it with us. In Jesus' name, Amen.
