Galatians 5:1-2

(Galatians 5:1-2) 『 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 』 Paul said, "Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." The slave yoke is the law. In particular, circumcision is typical, The legalists came to the church and spread with leaven, saying, "You must be circumcised." Today, in the people of the Church, there are two types of those who keep the law: there are those who simply keep the law and those who keep it under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. So, keeping the law under the guidance of the Holy Spirit does not matter. They claim that the Holy Spirit protects those who are guided by the Holy Spirit and keep the law. If you say this, it's the sound of a drunk person. It is to say things that are not even in the Bible. In any case, those who try to keep the law become people without the Holy Spirit. For example, they ask, "Isn't it natural to see through the Ten Commandments if your life is out of God's will?" However, what God gave the law, especially the Ten Commandments, means to realize sin and discover Jesus Christ, yet they say that they must discover sin in the Ten Commandments, so they become unrelated to Christ. To those who want to be righteous through the Ten Commandments, God rules by law. If you break any of the laws, you will be judged by God. Those who try to keep the law are like proclaiming their righteousness. The first commandment of the Ten Commandments said, "Thou shalt have no other gods above me." So, those who are ignorant of the Bible say, "Jesus has fulfilled the law, so can we obey this commandment?" You may think that. The purpose God gave these commandments was because the Israelites did not know God. So, through this law, they come to know God, to realize sin, so find Christ to come and repent and return. However, those who are guided by the Holy Spirit become one with God, so they know God very well. It is not because it was prescribed in the law, but because the law of the Holy Spirit is written in the heart, God is called the Father, and the other God is not called the Father. In other words, there is no need for the law. So, those who claim that the law is still needed today become those who do not know God very well. The fourth rule of the Ten Commandments, "The Lord commanded the Sabbath day to be holy, as the LORD your God commanded you." Those who are ignorant of the Bible have abolished the law, so is it not necessary to observe the Sabbath? There are people who think. Jesus Christ is Lord of the Sabbath. To keep the Sabbath is to look to Christ, believe, and wait. However, Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Sabbath, came to this world. Therefore, those who are in Christ are at rest. Those who are in Christ need not argue about keeping the Sabbath. The Sabbath and Jubilee are both concepts of rest. Those who say that they are in Christ and keep these things are doing it without knowing the meaning of rest. In Jeremiah 31:33-34『 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 』 It was said that the old covenant (the law) was abolished and the new covenant was engraved in the heart. In other words, if a believer enters into Jesus Christ, he becomes a child of God. The words, "Put my law in them and write them in their hearts," mean that Jesus Christ forgave all the sins of the world with the blood shed on the cross, so that those who have entered into Christ will not be convicted of sin by the law. The Holy Spirit comes to those who are in Christ, removing all that is related to the law. Those who try to keep the commandments of the law cannot read the intentions of God without the commandments of the law, but those who are guided by the Holy Spirit already know the will of God. To understand God's will, you must understand the meaning of the whole Bible. Those who practice the law do not read the Bible properly, and they are speaking according to their own thoughts.『 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love. 』 The law applies to all sinners, and those who are blessed by the faith of Christ are saved because they are in Christ, not the law. To enter into Christ is to deny himself. That is, they die on the cross with Jesus Christ. Jesus tells us not to stand up. This is because the existence of self is at the center of one's righteousness. Your righteousness is the greed you want to be like God. “I am convinced in the Lord that you will have no other mind.” The other mind means the legal mind. At that time, he was referring to those who practiced being circumcised again, saying they believed in Christ. In Galatians 2:18-19『 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God. 』, In Romans 7:4, 『Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead 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. "He who is in Christ becomes dead about the law, so there is no need for the law any more. Still, those who think that they must obey the law have not died of the law, so they are outside Christ. It is outside of Christ, and it is to be an unsaved person who proclaims his righteousness. Those who are in Christ live with Christ, and those who believe that they must obey the law are the same as those who raise Christ to death again in the law. Those who think they must keep the law again are children of the Devil. Today, thoughts about the law can be divided into three categories. It must be totally abolished, more strictly obeyed, the law has been abolished, but the laws related to morality are still classified as being helpful. In other words, although the law does not lead to righteousness, they think that it is helpful for the life of faith to follow these moral regulations to prevent sin. When you think of the law, sin comes to mind, and you can't escape from the real problem of sin. However, the law is extinct. Those who claim that the law has been entirely abolished have a different meaning depending on whether they are in Christ. Those who are in Christ are acknowledged to have been extinguished when Jesus died on the cross. But those who are outside of Christ are still alive to the law.
