LIVING BY THE HIGHER LAW: THE LAW THAT SETS ONE UP IN GRACE AND MAKES ONE FREE INDEED!
“There is therefore NOW NO CONDEMNATION to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the LAW of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has MADE me FREE from the LAW of SIN and DEATH” Romans 8:1-2
In Christ Jesus, No CONDEMNATION means – No CONDEMNATION. GOD is bound by His WORD. NO CONDEMNATION means freedom from self-condemnation, demonic power and cohorts, religion, traditional dogmas, religious finger pointing and more of such like.
Its true that the law of gravity indicates the pulling forces that when things are thrown up, they falls. But it’s also true that by the law of upthrust – aircrafts overcome gravitational pull and the ship floats and experiences buoyancy in waters. Hence, it’s a high time to live free, enjoy true freedom indeed, when you know you are in Christ Jesus. Simply because the HIGHER LAW – the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus – gives one freedom, onward and upward trajectory from the law of sin and death, which includes all forms of bondages, fears, condemnations, such like and more.
