Where Is Our Focus?

 Focusing on the Law removes our focus off Jesus,  the centrality of the believers life.

The Law cannot redeem...Grace can.
The Law has no power over sin...Grace does.
The Law is not relationship oriented...Grace is.
The Law is burdensome.. Grace is not.
The Law is judgmental...Grace is not.
The Law is unforgiving...Grace is forgiving.
The Law is condemning...Grace is not.
The Law is a shadow...Grace is reality.
The Law is me  centered...Grace is Jesus centered.

Remember this, anything the Law can do Grace can do better and, anything the Law can't do Grace can do.

Stop living under the Law...Live in Grace.

  1. Wow, this is amazing. I was raised to believe grace was a dirty word. I'm 34,was raised a church kid, but I am barely learning the meaning of grace. It overwhelms me. I would love to share this.

  2. Our focus should be on Jesus. As Paul said in Heb.12:1-6 we are running a race to win and we should lay aside every weight and run with patience looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.

    As we run we will because if our love for Christ keep His commandments for He commanded us in John 14:15 if ye love me keep my commandments.

    The apostle Paul backed up keeping the commandments in Rom.2:21-24 when he warned us that if we preach to others to keep the commandments we should do so also or else we would be dishonouring and blaspheming the name of God.

    21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal?

    22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege?

    23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God?

    24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
