teresaq Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Why was it necessary that something was given to have life? Because the wages of sin was death. If a law could give life, it would be by the law. If the law was a secondary form and God could have made another, and better, it would not suffice because if men could not keep an inferior law they could not keep a superior, consequently no law could give the life. Therefore Christ came to be the purpose of the law to everyone that believeth. Quote facebook. /teresa.quintero.790

Therefore Christ came to be the purpose of the law to everyone that believeth. I'm not following this. That is, how does the second sentence follow from the first. Specifically, how does the fact that man not being able to keep an inferior form of the law imply that Christ came to be the purpose of the law for everyone who believes? Quote Christ exalted the character of God, attributing to him the praise, and giving to him the credit, of the whole purpose of his own mission on earth,--to set men right through the revelation of God.
