CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL -WITHOUT THE LAW

 

CHRISTIAN DEVOTIONAL

WITHOUT THE LAW

Why be tied to something that does us a lot of harm?

IT is amazing to see how the best example of our relationship with God is marriage. Our redeemer Jesus Christ used many examples drawn from the marriage relationship and families. Following this same example, the Apostle Paul, to speak of the Law that bound the people of Israel, used married life so that we could give it the meaning that it was intended to give. As human beings, a pedagogical aid is very good if we know how to use it appropriately, in this case, we are talking about examples, metaphors and parables.

“ARE YOU NOT IGNORING, BROTHERS (FOR I AM SPEAKING WITH THOSE WHO KNOW THE LAW), THAT THE LAW RULES OVER HUMAN BEINGS AS LONG AS HE LIVES?”

Romans 7.1

The Gospel of Christ frees us from the bonds of the Law. The context regarding the Law of God's people is: for more than four centuries they were enslaved in Egypt and had largely moved away from keeping in the permanent presence of God. Now, after the wonders done through Moses, God's people were free from the Egyptians and would be surrounded by hundreds of other peoples who should have and maintain a relationship with God but who had flatly refused to be considered children of God. Therefore, God gives the Law so that his people are not the same as these other peoples, but rather learn the concepts that God does not accept in human beings.

“BECAUSE THE MARRIED WOMAN IS SUBJECT BY THE LAW TO THE HUSBAND WHILE HE LIVES; BUT IF THE HUSBAND DIES, SHE IS FREE FROM THE LAW OF THE HUSBAND.”

Romans 7.2

One of the ways to understand why we are no longer subject to the Law is through widowhood. When we were united in marriage, we are bound by the laws and principles that are to be upheld in it. That is, honor, respect, fidelity, companionship, sustenance, etc. however, when one of the two is missing, these laws and principles simply disappear. In the same way, we are now under the Law of Christ, therefore, we are no longer subject to the Law of the people of Israel, although this is the main basis from which we are subject to the love of God.

God bless you.
