Law teaches us godliness while grace gives us the facility to try to to what the law commands.
We can in other wise say that law and grace work together for us to live properly before God. You cannot claim to be under the grace of God and live a lawless life, because those that live under God’s grace are subject to the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.
You are a partaker of God’s grace because the Spirit of Lordship now lives in you and helps you to live by Christ’s commandments.
On the opposite hand, you can't obey the instructions of this Spirit of Lordship without the assistance of God’s grace. Why? It is because His standard is high and His ways unsearchable.
This is the reason why Christ paid such a high price for us to gain access to God’s throne, so that we will obtain grace that helps us in this regard.
God’s standard is filmily established in His word. No matter what proportion the planet changes, the quality which God’s word sets for man to measure can't be changed.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said He did not come to destroy the law or the prophet; rather, He came to fulfill them through the grace He brought from heaven.
His grace is more than enough for those who are willing to obey God because that His will for us, love Him and worship Him in spirit and in truth. Whatever the Lord commands, He gives the grace to try to to.
From the Lord Jesus teachings, it is clear that His standard is much higher than the standard of the Law of Moses.
This is because His standard establishes the desire of God because it was within the beginning. Praise God, His grace is more than enough to help us meet this standard.
For instance, Christ brought the grace not only to avoid going into the act of sexual immorality but also to help us not to desire evil thought after the opposite sex in our hearts.
The law says we should not commit murder, but the word of grace helps us not to be angry at all.
The same applies to the issue of divorce. Our Lord Jesus Christ taught against divorce, comparing it with the sin of adultery.
God’s standards have not changed from generation to generation, and they will never change. Our love for God should inspire us to live by His standards.
Let us constantly look into the perfect law of liberty to please our God daily.
