"GRACE OR THE LAW 2"

The paradox is this:
Contrary of what people believe:
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS DO NOT SAVE US!
IT CONDEMNS US TO DIE!
Grace is the forgiveness of sin, when we believe that:
Christ died instead of us to pay for our sins!
THE LAW DEMANDS OBEDIENCE!
GRACE JUST WANTS ITS ACEPTANCE!
We cannot be attached to the Law with one hand and with the
other to Grace in case that one fails, because we could fall!
When we violate God’s Law, it becomes a problem for us, so we
have to put it away in the mean time we found the solution, and
glue ourselves to Grace with both hands! Don’t take me wrong!
THE LAW IS PERFECT! BUT WE ARE NOT!
AND WE FAIL! So,
We could have them both attaching ourselves to one: GRACE!
OUR SALVATION IS NOT IN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS!
OUR SALVATION IS IN GRACE!
Let me illustrate a little bit so you could understand it better:
Just imagine that the Ten Commandments are like a special
aerostatic balloon that wants to take us to heaven if we obey
them all, and sin, like very sharp nails that will poke holes to
the balloon every time we violate any one of the Laws of God!
The more we sin, the more holes we put in the balloon, and the
faster the air will escape from it, and cannot fly, besides:
NOBODY CAN REPAIR THOSE “HOLES”.
It could also be compared with a ten steps ladder we could climb
to heaven! But any one of them we break….
WE BREAK THEM ALL!
So, our opportunity to go to heaven, VANISHES!
What can we do?
I’ll tell you in a bit, in the mean time….
KEEP PRAYING!
GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!

To be continued….
