This month on People to People, our theme is law and grace. This particular subject is one of the sweet spots of our ministry.
Understanding the purpose of the law and the purpose of grace is the key to experiencing freedom as a believer.
The law made our need for Jesus very clear. It judged us guilty of sin, condemned us and showed us that we were spiritually dead. And that is where it left us. There is nothing more it could do.
Here is the scoop on the law. It cannot save us. It merely shows us that we need to be saved.
Grace saves us.
Jesus removes the judgment and condemnation of sin. Jesus makes us right with God. Jesus gives us life.
That’s grace.
When this act of grace occurred, the law was satisfied. Its purpose was fulfilled. There was nothing more for it to do. The law gave way to grace.
Now grace is fully in charge. We are led by the Spirit.
Under the law, we were bound up, slaves to sin and death. Under grace we are free. “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” 2 Corinthians 3:17 (NIV).

I understand that Jesus paid the penalty of death at the cross and was the last sacrifice for sin forthe entire world,and today we are under a new covenantwhere Father in the power of the Holy Ghost lives inj the believer and teaches the believer all truth that sets one free to actually love as God does,beiing raised back to life in him here now and today
I have been very interested in your ministry for
About 5 years
Since then I have noticed that preachers who don’t
Understand the in dwelling life of Christ through the
Holy Spirit often do not speak if it specificilly ie
They say “The Lord is now with you or the Holy Spirit is
Now helping you ”
Just one thing I’ve noticed
Thanks for being so specific in your teaching
I have noticed it is the ones that want to know God with out any other motive that God reveals himself to
Good. So good. May the grace of God be with us.
