032. Is the Law written on our hearts?

The gospel of grace frees us from religious systems that create a hyper-awareness of sin while offering conditional acceptance with God through rule-keeping.• The love of Christ, not religious obligation, is what truly controls and transforms us• Paul teaches that those in Christ are new creations, with old things passed away and new things come• Christians are given the ministry of reconciliation, not condemnation• The law functioned as a tutor to lead people to Christ, after faith came, we are no longer under a tutor• Old Testament prophecies about God's law being written on hearts refer to Christ himself, not the 613 commandments• Christ gave two new commandments: believe in Him and love one another as He has loved us• True grace recognizes we are completely forgiven and made holy through Christ's finished work• Religion divides grace into "positional" salvation and conditional fellowship, a recipe for legalism• Freedom in Christ means living from a new heart with His love flowing through usEpisode Page: https://wakinguptograce.com/032-is-the-law-written-on-our-hearts/
