If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
- John 14:15
Moses gave us the knowledge of God’s law but he couldn’t provide us with the power to obey it. Lord Jesus, on the other hand, came to give us the power or “grace” to obey the law of God.
But having grace does not absolve us from keeping the Ten Commandments. Before we are saved, we are living under the law, which means living in the guilt of the law, the condemnation of the law. But now we are saved, the law no longer condemns us but that does not mean that we can throw away the law.
Having grace is not a license to sin. Those who take the grace of God lightly are those who think that they can simply freely partake in sin because God’s moral law no longer applies to them, they are living in the grace of God, and now they can just do whatever they feel like doing.
Let’s not be fooled by such people who takes the grace of God so lightly, let’s beware of the wolf in the sheep’s skin.
God Bless
