Law and Grace - Part 4
Law and Grace - Part 4

The lesson on November 13, 2022 was part 4 of the “Law and Grace” study.

Wayne took time to review what we have previously learned but he continued with focusing on what the Apostle Paul said in Romans 3:31 “Do we then make void the law through faith?

God forbid: yea, we establish the law.” We find out how in Romans 4.

We looked at the Greek word “καταργοῦμεν” for abolish or “make none effect” and reviewed Luke 13:7; Romans 3:3, 31; 4:14 just to cover a few.

He then explained that we have many types in the Old Testament and the Law of Christ and that they form a feedback loop.

The more you know of Christ, the more you see types in the law showing his role in justification and many others.

When PAul explains to Timothy in 1 Timothy 1:8-11 KJV, he emphasized the Law is good… and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine which was committed to Paul’s trust.

It seems that PAul wants us to use it lawfully.

We need to find out how.

Wayne showed us how the Temple was built with a vail separating the holiest place that was ripped from top to bottom.

In the Acts period, the Jew and Gentile were two and the Jew came first.

When the Mystery was revealed after Acts, we learn of the middle wall of partition is now gone because we are made as one new man, so making peace.

The lesson ended with looking at Ephesians 2:15 showing that “having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances.

The lessons to follow will dive deep into these ordinances.
