"GRACE OR THE LAW"

“PARADOX”
Do you believe in the Bible?
Yes! I do!
Do you believe in The Ten Commandments?
Of course! If I believe in the Bible I have to believe also in God’s Law!
Don’t get upset with me, but I have to ask you another question,
Actually, two more!
Go ahead! What are they?
Do you believe in Jesus Christ?
Yes, I do believe in Him! Why?
Because not all the people that believe in The Ten Commandments,
believe in Jesus Christ! Further more, I have to ask you:
Do you believe in GRACE?
You got me right there! What is GRACE?
Grace is something that seems to oppose the Ten Commandments
But it does not! Actually, it helps us to comply with its demands!
It helps us to obey it!
I am sorry, but I don’t understand!
Let me explain it to you:
God’s Laws demand obedience from us, correct?
Yes! That is true! And?
Nobody obeys all the Law!
Nobody?
Yes! Nobody! That is why the world is upside down!
Pastors, Preachers, Priests of all religions, are tired telling their congregation not to lie, not to hate, not to steal, not to kill, not to commit adultery, but the people as soon as they leave their churches, they forget,and do it again! Why?
Because by nature, we are all sinners!
That is why Christ came to this world, because we do not obey the Ten
Commandments and Christ change them for GRACE.
Does that mean that if we don’t have them anymore, we can do anything
we want without God’s punishment?
Absolutely not! Nobody escapes from God’s Justice!
Remember this:
INSIDE SIN THE PUNISHMENT LAYS WITHIN
But there is something nice:
AFTER A GOOD DEED, THERE IS A PRIZE!
.
Grace is Pardon, it is forgiveness! Forgiveness of your past
Renewal of your heart and mind!
The beginning of a new life, serving God and helping people!

To be continued….
