The Law is Good
Romans 7: 15, 16
The law is doing just what it is supposed to do when it makes me to see that what I want to do, I don't do. The law is doing just what it is supposed to do when it makes me see that the sin which I hate is the very thing I do. The law was not given to make me do good. It was not given to use as ruler to measure a pretense of goodness in me. God gave the law to shut my mouth (Romans 3: 19.) Thanks be unto God, by faith in Christ Jesus I have established the law, am not under it but am led by the Spirit of God (Romans 3: 31; 6: 14; Galatians 5: 18.) I consent unto the law that it is good.
