THE VOICE CALLING

'... I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, "Make straight the way for the Lord"' (John 1:23 NIV).
The Holy Spirit revealed to a prophetess who faithfully spoke his words, "David Dellit, with The Valentine Prophecies and II Revelation. Imagine… TVP being the BOOK VERSION of John the Baptist! ... "And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come. Whoever has ears, let them hear" (Matthew 11:14-15 NIV)." All the words from the Holy Spirit to the prophetess, are available in the file "WHO IS DAVID DELLIT?" on the 'Free' page of this website.
God's urgent warnings from heaven in '2 Revelation', are free to read in the .docx '2 Revelation' and 'Christ's Reformation' on the 'Free' page of this website. There is more on the YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/DavidDellit

March 2021 - "BORN FREE"

"So then, my brothers, we are not the children of a slave woman but of a free woman. Freedom is what we have -- Christ has set us free!" (Galatians 4:31-5:1a GNB/TEV)

Reading:
Galatians 4:21-5:1
What have we been set free from? Read Romans 7:6; 8:1-4; Galatians 3:23-25.

How can we be free from the Law when Jesus says the Law has not been done away with and still applies to us? (Matthew 5:17-20)

If we do everything the Law requires we could be put right with God, but since we are unable to keep the Law perfectly, the Law cannot put us in a right relationship with God. The Law was given so that we would know what sin is and realize that we are sinners, but the Law cannot save us from our sins (Galatians 3:10-12,19,21; Romans 3:19-20; 7:7).

Jesus Christ satisfied (fulfilled) the requirements of the Law. When we are in Christ, because of God's grace we also satisfy the requirements of the Law. We are put right with God through faith in Christ, and so we are set free from the Law and are saved from our sins (Romans 3:21-28,31; 7:6; 8:3-4; Galatians 3:23-27; 5:18; Colossians 2:12-14).

Does this mean that we can do whatever we like because we are free from the Law?
"What, then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law but under God's grace? By no means!" (Romans 6:15 GNB/TEV)

Read Romans 6:15-18; 8:4-11; 13:8-10; Galatians 5:16-18.

"Freedom is not the right to do what we want but the power to do what we ought." ~ Corrie Ten Boom

Applications:
* Why does Apostle Paul warn us to stand as free people and not become slaves to the Law? (Galatians 5:1) If we put our faith in the keeping of the Law then we have to keep the Law perfectly -- and we will be condemned because we can't achieve this. We cut ourselves off from Christ and fall away from God's grace (Galatians 2:16, 18, 21; 3:10-12; 5:2-4).
* In Romans 7:1-6, Apostle Paul compares our freedom from the Law to a woman's freedom from the law when her husband dies. He says we are free from the Law because we have "died". What did Paul mean by this? Read Romans 6:1-14.
