Debate: Have the gates of hell prevailed against the church Jesus founded on a rock, when He Himself said it could never happen? Did Christ who cannot lie fail to fulfill his promise? (view source)
Revision as of 12:26, September 22, 2020
, 12:26, September 22, 2020→The law is laid down not for the innocent but for the lawless
*'''1 Timothy 1:6-7''' - ''Some people have deviated from these and turned to meaningless talk, desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions. Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it legitimately. This means understanding that '''the law is laid down not for the innocent''' but for the lawless and disobedient'' (NRSV)
*'''1 Timothy 1:6-7''' - ''Some people have deviated from these and turned to meaningless talk, desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions. Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it legitimately. This means understanding that '''the law is laid down not for the innocent''' but for the lawless and disobedient'' (NRSV)
*'''Romans 8:1''' - ''There is therefore no condemantion to them who are in Christ Jesus''

Note: "disobedient" in Timothy refers to those who do not trust God (without faith), and not to naughty children, outlaws, and gangsters who deserve a spanking and jail time. To be without condemnation is to be innocent. Christians are not under law but under grace. The law cannot make a person just, rightous, and acceptable to God. Only humbling our [[pride]], thinking that we can make ourselves pleasing to God, and accepting the finished work of Christ, makes us acceptable.
