God's Law. What is God's Law?

[Robert Pate]

The pattern in Paul spoken of has nothing to do with sin.

What are you talking about?

Paul demonstrates in Romans 7 that he struggles with sin. And then in 1 Timothy 1:15 he referes to himself as the "Chief of Sinners" not just a sinner, but the "Chief of Sinners".

And now in 1 Corinthians 15:52, 53, 54. He tells us that we are corrupt.

 

[Jacob]

What is the Law?
What is the requirement of the Law?

Romans 8:4 NASB - 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

He explains that there was a struggle. That does not mean that as a believer he lived in sin or sinned.

This scripture means that all who are "In Christ" are righteous in God's eyes. In Jesus Christ we have met all of the requirements of the law. Jesus was the end and the fulfillment of the law.

But we are not "In Christ" yet. Physically we are still here on the earth in our Adamic bodies that are prone to sin.

He must have sinned or he would not have refered to himself as "The Chief of Sinners".

Maybe he got mad at a Pharisee.

If you are not in Christ before you die you are not saved.

Speculating will not help.

 

[Robert Pate]

If you are not in Christ before you die you are not saved.

Yea, death seems to be the thing that seals your destiny.

Jesus said, "Unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins".

Speculating will not help.

Paul was as human as you and I. He had the same problem that we have. This is why he refered to himself as a sinner.

Are you found in Him?

If you are a Christian you should obey God in thanks for Him having saved you. If you are a sinner you need to repent and get right with God.
