Read and Recognize
Rom. 10,4 For the end of the law is Christ …
1 Cor. 15,56 Now the sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law.
Gal. 4,5 ... that he might redeem them who were under the law; that we
might receive the adoption of sons.
Etc.
If Paul by these laws partly meant something else, still GOD’s Word
(the word of an Apostle is GOD’s Word because JESUS said to
the Apostles: „He who hears you hears Me!“) always has several mean-
ings concretely and spiritually.
Why does man insist on appearing still more perfect than CHRIST?
GOD gave 10 Commandments! The religious teachers of the law of
the Old Covenant, however, added another 1,000! CHRIST loosed us
from them! He founded a Church of free children with the 10 Com-
mandments of GOD and some few new precepts! And what do the
human Church leaders do? Again they add 1,000 laws!
Unchristian and not apostolic!
Instead of laws that bring death there ought to be guidelines. Certainly,
a large community like the Church needs a constitutional order. She
may draw this up as well, for JESUS said to Peter and later to the other
Apostles and these to their successors ordained by them: „Whatsoever
you shall bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven, and what-
soever you shall loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven!“
Instead of laws that bring death:
Guidelines!
