The Law vs Salvation

[Guest DRS81]

Hello all, I have a question that I'm not really that knowledgeable on.

When they mention "The Law", are they talking about the law of Moses and the ten commandments?

Romans 2:12-29 is a good example I suppose, but you see the words "the law" everywhere in the Bible.

My other question is that Jesus didn't come to condemn the law of Moses but to do what?....to the law?

I also just finished watching the ten commandments movie that was made in 1956, great movie!

Matthew 5:17

 

"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

---the narrow concept of law in bible is the Jewish law,but to the people who do not know the Jewish law,GOD carved the universal law in their heart,that is :knowing good and evil,

Everyone know what is good and what is evil,but as we all have the sinful nature,lot of times ,we know what is good but do evil,some people say :no ,I always do good and never do evil------that bcs the temptation is not strong enough ,for example, y can reject the bribe at number 1000,but can y reject the bribe at number 10000,or 10000000……?y can not ,y do not sin just bcs y do not have the opportunity to sin or the temptation is not strong enough.

So no one is good enough to be accepted by GOD according to the universal law in their heart,we are all under the wrath and punishment according to the law ,this is why we need the redemption, if there is no law, and there is no sin,the law brings the knowledge of sin,if there is no sin,why we need redemption?

JESUS came ,make us understand we can not keep the law and be accepted by GOD,the only thing we can do is surrender to GOD,believe in GOD’s faithfulness and righteousness, the ultimate target is to make us understand as heaven is higher than earth,GOD is higher than us.so the way of  Salvation is not to keep the law (that is OT),but to believe in GOD(that is NT),OT is based on the righteousness of humbeing(keep the law),and NT is the showing of GOD’s Omnipotence, Omniscience,and righteousness

 

On the other hand,GOD rules the world with the law,but if a ruler/gov. is not faithful,law is useless ,bcs the ruler/gov. can not guarantee he judges according to the law,so GOD’s  faithfulness is the guarantee of GOD’s law, guarantee the world is organized and run by law.
