False Doctrines: Mixing Law & Grace

Breaking It Down
Basically when it comes to the Law many stumble and fall but when it comes to Grace many are entwined by it and easily cheapen it by failing to look deeper within. People exalt the Law of Moses and rightly so but few have found that there are laws in the NT too. I mean you got to be kidding me. How could we miss this when it was so duly noted? Easily missed many cheapen Grace and think of it as a license to sin or a method to freedom or a spiritual rebirth when it is none of those things! Grace is the spirit of the law of Christ. Grace is given freely by the grace-giver Jesus Christ who brought forth grace into existence from the foundation of the world. His foreknowledge lead him on the path of righteousness which extended unto the Eternal realm and brought about true healing and kingdom reign. Still it is crucial to note the Jews who are holy keep the Law to be Holy. However the side effect is the Jews are not righteous as the Apostle Paul noted because he says trusting in the Law to bring forth righteousness is a grave error the Jews often commit. But then the Grace of the Gospel to give Christians righteousness is truly existent since it is called the "Gospel of Righteousness." So the Jews have no faith and the Christians have no law. The Christians have no holiness except for the holy fear of God and the Jews have no righteousness save for the seldom path of righteousness they may tread few and far between. Without Jesus Christ though no man can become righteous of his own doing. Many confuse these and fail to properly divide the Word of God and they mix law & grace which is not only apostasy but a grave doctrinal error that results in understanding that has a very confusing position. I mean think about it....

Those who have a mixture of Law & Grace say that we Christians should keep the Law and yet they believe in or accept the Grace. However though they say we are not "under the law" which is true they subvert the truth by teaching us to keep the Law! Pretty weak theology if you ask me. I mean why would you teach the opposite of what you teach? If they say you should believe the Gospel why do they say we should keep the Law? They say that the Law is not "works" when Paul clearly says the Law is "dead works" of the flesh! It also says in Galatians no man shall be justified by works which they think is driving a school bus, serving in a Church program, etc. I mean come on! What works are there other than serving God and keeping his commands? Whether they are Old Testament or New Testament commands it doesn't matter for there are more commands in the New than the Old and it is harder to keep the New Testament laws than the Law of Moses for at least they have a method for that in Judaism. In Christianity to keep the New Testament laws we have to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit which cannot be confined to a Church Program!

The commands in the New Testament are things like not being lawless, not being sexually immoral, not being unregenerate, not being unrepentant, not being effeminate, not being unloving or unforgiving, not being uncouth or rude, not being an adulterer, etc. There are so many NT laws to go through that will have to be discussed at some point since after looking at these simple laws I already mentioned we can tell this new law of the Spirit of Christ is far harder to complete on the road of faith than any Jew keeping the Law of the Torah. So although we Christians have been in the dark a long time thinking we have no little laws to obey we can come out of become immaturity through spiritual obedience and be more adaptable than our Jewish Brethren. But I think by focusing on the laws of the spirit we can continue to grow and know Christ more. Also the Jews have no faith because the Law of God leaves no room for faith and explains why Jews don't believe in Salvation because they have "no reason" to. To them it is all works and nothing more. To us it is all faith plus nothing.
