UNDER the Law

[William H.]

YHVH our God is one of LAW. His Word is Life. To stray from Him is to embrace death (Rom.6:23/ Eze.18:4). YHVH our Righteous Father has a straight path for us to walk before Him (Jas.1:13-27) in Love giving him Honour and Glory (Rev.4:11). There is an effect for transgressing God('s Law /the ways of life).  

Deut.30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:....

All have sinned (Proverbs 20:9/ 1 Jn.3:4/1 Jn.1:8-9/ Is.64:6/ Ps.14:1-3/ Rom.3:10-12,23/ Ecc.7:20/ Rom.5:12/Matt.5:20/ Jer.17:9/ Gal.5:4...)

When mankind first began to stray he was seperated from the tree of Life and exsposed to the effects of sin. Man would now have to return (Teshuva/Repent) and Partake of Atonement to have life eturnal.

Gen.3:22  And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

Gal.3:18-29  For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise. Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Col.2:13-14

    And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;...

-When God says if you break his Law there will be a punishment, you cant simpley make Him a Liar (as the serpent attempted to claim) by just simpley saying your sorry. The wage (effect) of sin WILL (Must) be Paid. Torah (The Law) within itself contains the standard set forth to escape its condemnation. Its called ATONEMENT. Messiah fulfilled the Atonements. Prior to the crusifixtion we had types that pointed forward and following the crusifixtion we have a type that points back to the Atonements made in Yeshua HaMashiach!

-When one partakes of Atonement they are no longer "Under" the punishment of Torah cause in Atonement Torah is fulfilled! So Torah remains in effect. At judgement those that don't have atonement will be found guilty according to the Law.

To be "UNDER" the law is to be in DEBT to the Law. Messiah pays this debt. Each will have to answer for his own transgression and those that have Atonement answer for their transgression in the name of Yeshua (which means Salvation of Yah). It's Always been the LORD our God that provides the Atonement (lamb).

Deut.27:26 Cursed be he that confirmeth not all the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen. 

___________ Lawful Grace____

* Rom.3:19,20,23,24,25,28,31 (Rom.3)

   Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law (*Rom.6:14): that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin...... For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;.... Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law... Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law. (Rom.6:15)   

Rom.10:4 "For Christ is the *end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth" Christ is the Fulfillment (End- Greek #5056- conclusion, final point, goal, "end",  purpose, of the Law- fulfilled).

Matt.5:17 "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil" 

Eph.2:15 "Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace". <p>(another presentation)

Rom.6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not *under the law, but under grace.

Gal.3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

(And since all have sinned all shall be cursed, yet Mashiach has paid the price, took on the curse, for whosoever shall be drawn to the Atonemsnts of Yah.) 

 Gal.3:13-14 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. (Is.53)

Is.54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. John the Baptist: "Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world."

Yeshua (Jesus) HaMashiach (The Christ): * Heb.10:10,12,14,18/ Gal.2:20/ Heb.2:14/ 1 Cor.5:6-8/ Rom.10:4/ Jn.3:16/ Is.53/ Gal.4:4-5/

Gal.5:18-23 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not *under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Jer.23:5 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth.

(Baruch haba b'shem Adonai) 

Rom.6:13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. (2 Pet.2:9/ 1 THess.4:3)

[William H.]

Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all that has been written in the book of the (Law) Torah, to do them.” Paul wrote that. (Gal.3:10)

[William H.]

How does one cleanse his/her conscience and heart of sin? Prayer (repentance) and devotion (practice discipline) unto The Will of HaShem. G-D provides atonement. 

[William H.]

 "All Things Are Lawful"? A slogan in the culture which the speaker is addressing.

<1> 1 Cor.6:12 All things (G3956) are lawful (or permisable (G1832) UNTO ME (G3427), but all things are Not expedient (good): all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. 

<2> 10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not... 

....................................

So whats being said here? 

It wasn't said that there is no law! / "He is saying that all things have a place. He is saying he is not going to be put under the law." - Adam Francomb / 

Rom.8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

<1> "1 Cor.6:12"  "will not be brought under the power of any" Cause the following verses make it clear that those in covenant are one with G-d and have vowed to make their bodies instruments of G-d and his will. We have the victory IN our Lord. He is above all and there is no weapon (Is.54:17) than can be formed against us. /* Rom.8:33-39 /

Those In covenant are "under" Grace not "under" (the effects of the) law (cause we fulfill the law in the righteousness of Yeshua- Salvation of Yah via repentance unto atonement/ and naturally bare the fruits to show it). After "1 Cor.6:12 comes vs.13 which is speaking of the physical body and says that its not for fornication but for the Lord (vs.15).... and vs.17 says he who is joined unto the Lord is one Spirit!

vs. 18 reads "Flee fornication" (not that it is "lawful" to practice it)

 (1 Cor.6:) vs 18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body ; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

<2> "All things are lawful for me (G3427 "unto me"- me, I), but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me (G3427 "for me"), but all things edify not."... Unto me as in a phy man which can carnally justify anything within his own carnal mind OR "me, I" as in he who is one (echad) which Yeshua (spiritually)? Depending on this the subject could be reflective of *Rom.7/ (you with me?)/ Matt.6/  Leading up to "1 Cor.10:23" we read in vs.21 "Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils". 

Sometimes its hard to communicate several layers of truth in a simple statement (in sentence structure/ texts) but anyway, This statement would be recieved (or rejected) by people differently based on where they are spiritually and what working knowledge they of the Word. One led of the Spirit can see the simple message and how it confirms scripture after scripture(Justified by The Lord) . One led of the flesh may read it and personally think it justifies being lawless.  There is only One true way (Grace /which for me consists of and is fulfilling the law). / Gal.5:13

 Maybe these translations or Commentaries can be of some help. 

Rev.21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

preceding vs. 12 we have  1 Cor.6:9,10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

The culture carries this solgan of "everything is lawful unto me" as a testimony of their godless culture containing the immoral ways listed above

 1 Cor.5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication (immorality) among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife./ "lawful" is a sloppy translation in 1 Cor.6:8 exesti (1832)is not to be confused with nomimwj (G# 3545,3551) which is used in 1 Tim.1:8 

Many different translations of the verse in English sources make all this clearer as well as early commentaries within the congregations.

Rom.7

- vs.1 "Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?"... "as long as he liveth"

- vs.2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.

- vs.3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.

 G-D married Israel and Israel (aka Ps.2:7 son of G-d - he who carries the character and name of the Father... But then divorced Israel when she commited spiritual adultry and fornication /idolatry... SINNED. Thus according to Law one had to die to redeem the other from the Curse. When Israel (son of G-d) no longer carried his name and character Israel as a whole couldn't be seen as Son of G-d but ONE of Israel (MESSIAH- son of G-d) came who ALWAYS carried the Name and Character of G-d!!!!! He DIED and paid the price and REDEEMED ISRAEL (and the nations for he is that Light unto the nations).........  

-  vs.4 "Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead (#2289) to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God."

#2289- -to kill (literally or figuratively): - *become dead, (*cause to be) *put to death, kill, mortify./  WE DIED of self as Christ died (not to do his own will but that of the Father) and now (a new man) are to bring forth fruits. NOT Being "Under the Law" ("Dead to the law") doesnt mean the law was done away with and it means we fulfill the Law through atonement (carried out in Yeshua). Became dead to the law, not that the law is dead to us. We (self) were put to death ("are become dead") on the cross. our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. Gal.5:24 /2 Cor.6:9/

Col.3:5-7

 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
