Lord, it is time for you to do something.\par The people have broken your law.\par
The Lord wants his servant to be good.\par The Lord wants him to honor\par his wonderful teachings. {\cf2\super [384]} \par
You teach that person to not honor his father. So you teach that it is not important to do what God said. You think that it is more important to follow those rules you have.
Jesus answered, “Let it be this way for now. We should do all things that are right.” So John agreed to baptize {\cf2\super [45]} Jesus.
“Don’t think that I have come to destroy the law \{of Moses\} or the \{teaching of the\} prophets. {\cf2\super [61]} I have not come to destroy their teachings. I came to give full meaning to their teachings.
I tell you that you must do better than the teachers of the law and the Pharisees. {\cf2\super [62]} If you are not better people, then you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
He will come and kill those farmers! Then he will lease the land to some other farmers.”
Christ ended the law so that every person that believes in him is made right with God.
You think you can show foolish people what is right. And you think you are a teacher for people that still need to learn. You have the law and so you think that you know everything and have all truth.
No! God will continue to be true even when every person is false. Like the Scriptures {\cf2\super [26]} say:
If people could get the things that God promised by following the law, then faith is worthless. And God’s promise to Abraham is worthless.
God \{will save me\}! I thank him \{for his salvation\} through Jesus Christ our Lord!
God did this so that we could be right like the law said we must be. Now we don’t live following our sinful selves. We live following the Spirit.
To those that are without the law I became like a person that is without the law. I did this to help save those people that are without the law. (But really, I am not without God’s law—I am ruled by the law of Christ.)
I stopped living for the law. It was the law that killed me. I died to the law so that I can now live for God. I (my old life) was killed on the cross with Christ.
This gift is from God, and it is very important to me. Why? Because if law could make us right with God, then Christ did not have to die.
