der such COnUtlOnS we repeat, one
Is cnIy under the law of love. Wnal
IS me difference between the law OF
rove ana the law OF thou shalt and
thou shalt not? We might illustrate
[ the operation of the law of love Dy
The action of a mother or father
| VINO really love their child. IL is
absolute unnecessary to lay down
rules for the father or mother as to
what they should do for the absolute
necessities OF lie child they love.
i All they need is to know what is
best to do ard they gladly do 1t.
even at the .Js, OF their life; but
one not being moved by the spirit
of love ii is necessary to lay down
rules of thou shalt and thou shalt
; not. Serv<nt would of necessity be
in the class governed by thou shalt
and thou shalt not. (The jewish
peoCple was a house of servants
under Moses). A Son is supposed Ia
act in his fathers business from
tho standpoint of the highest inter
est and love for the father and his
household, therefore you can read
ilv understand that son would dc
all that servant would do and
much more. When Christ came ht
established the house of Sons and
all who come into Christ, through
are members of the house of Sols
and are not under the Servant law
Thou shalt and thou shalt not,
but are under the law of love fol
God and all his creatures. Through
him, Christ, our best endeavorS &C
do his will are acceptable, and WE
are reckoned as having passed from
under condemnation to death in tC
? justification to life so long as we
abide under The blood which Sc
cured the new covenant. In nc
olner way could any be accepted
by God. For the law given in Eden
was one that required absolutely
perfect obedience, and the law GOV.
enant given at Sinai demanded the
SaI e. And now since we know thai
God could not give an imperfect law
Uames 3: 10, and since We know
thai no imperfect person could full
ly obey perfect law, we see the
necessity for us being free from
under the law and accepted in the
merit of our beloved Christ. Hence
we conclude that those in Christ
whether they be Jews or Gentiles
are in no sense under the law Civ
er at Sinai, Craven upon stones
termed "The Ten Commandments,
neither to the Ceremonial attach
mcnts relating to typical feasts,
sacrifices and services. (Heb. 9: -.
No wonder, then, that the Apps
tie so earnestly sought TO guard the
new Gentle converted from becOm-
ing Jews and seeking life under the
law covenant; by which neither he
nor his nation had been able 10
profit. No wonder he exhorted them
to stand fast in the liberty of Christ
and his Gracious arrangements un-
der the Covenant of Grace. II was
in view of this danger of their los
ing faith in Christ's finished work
and trusting for salvation to their
own efforts to keep the Law Gov
Grant by works that Paul even pro-
hibiled the Circumcision of Gen
! tile converts, although he approved
/ Of il for Hebrews to whom ii was
/ given as a symbol and rite, long
before the Law Covenent was made
Hence the remark that, "The Cos
pei to the Circumcision" was spe-
cially supervised by Peter, while the
Gospel to the uncircumcised, the
Gcntiles, was specially PaupS mis-
