After this series, I will be switching back to the books of Daniel & Revelation. We will look at Daniel 3 next:-)
God's 10 commandment law has always been and always will be, as everlasting as God, for it is the character of God, written in stone. It spells out love, love to God first, and then to those around us. It is the foundation of His throne. It sits in the original ark of the covenant in heaven, in the Most Holy Place in the heavenly sanctuary. It sits below the mercy seat where God dwells in light unapproachable, between the cherubims. Revelation 11:19, "Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail." 1 Timothy 6:16, "who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen." Isaiah 37:16, "“O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, the One who dwells between the cherubim, You are God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth."
It does not honor God to say His law was done away with at the cross, for in so doing, man is declaring a lack of understanding about who God is. Psalm 119:142 & 144, "Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
And Your law is truth.
The righteousness of Your testimonies is everlasting;
Give me understanding, and I shall live." God's righteousness is everlasting and His testimonies or law, is everlasting. So, God's law is truth, and everlasting like His righteousness, sounds pretty important to me. I like to know what the truth is, so that I won't believe a lie. We must have understanding from what God has spoken in His word about Himself and His law. So, let's go there:-)
Man is so finite, but God is infinite. We only know a fragment of a drop of water in His ocean of knowledge. Like a mirror to our lives, God's law points out sin, but Jesus saves us from that sin. Romans 7:7, "What shall we say then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! On the contrary, I would not have known sin except through the law. For I would not have known covetousness unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.” So if you believe God's law is done away with, then what standard do you judge by? How do you know what sin is?
Romans 7:12, "Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good. God is holy, just and good!
